Medi Threads FAQ
How Long Do MediThread Results Last?
Results from MediThread treatments can last 12-18 months. The immediate lifting effect is visible right after the procedure, while collagen production continues to enhance the skin's firmness and texture over time.
Can MediThreads Be Combined with Other Treatments?
Yes, MediThreads can be combined with other treatments, such as dermal fillers, BOTOX, or laser skin resurfacing, to achieve comprehensive rejuvenation.
Are There Any Risks or Side Effects with MediThread?
MediThread is generally safe when performed by a skilled practitioner. Mild side effects may include swelling, bruising, or temporary tenderness at the insertion points. Serious complications are rare but can include infection or thread visibility.
How Should I Prepare for My MediThread Appointment?
To minimize the risk of bruising, avoid alcohol, blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin), and supplements like fish oil for at least 48 hours before the procedure. We will give specific pre-procedure instructions during your consultation.
Is There Any Downtime After MediThread?
Downtime is minimal, but you should avoid strenuous activities, excessive facial movements, and sleeping on your face for the first few days. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately after the procedure.
How Soon Can I See Results?
You’ll notice an immediate lift in treated areas right after the procedure. However, the full effects, including collagen stimulation, become more evident in 4-6 weeks.
Can MediThread Be Used for Preventative Aging?
Yes, MediThread is an excellent option for individuals in their late 20s to 30s who want to stimulate collagen production and prevent early signs of aging proactively.
