Non-Surgical Butt Thread Lifts in Chicago

Sculptra Aesthetic is a dermal filler injectable made out of poly-L-lactic acid. Injections fill shallow and sagging areas while also activating your body’s natural ability to regenerate collagen. This process firms the skin and underlying tissues, similarly to PDO threads.

After a thread lift, PDO threads actively lift the buttocks while Sculptra injections provide rounded volume.

The first step in a butt thread lift procedure involves applying a topical anesthetic. This keeps the treatment area numb for about 1-2 hours. Then, the area is disinfected and threads are strategically inserted by one of our cosmetic professionals.

“The target is to achieve a posterior projection and lift,” Leslie Forrester, APRN, our medical spa director and thread specialist says. During treatment, the dissolvable threads are pulled tight in order to lift skin and underlying tissues.

There are two types of threads used in butt thread lifts, including large “lifting” threads that are anchored under the skin to reposition soft tissues. They are coupled with smaller threads that stimulate collagen production, resulting in a smoother complexion and improved elasticity.

The larger threads are typically inserted at vertical angles, starting from the top of the butt. The latter are cross-woven into a mesh pattern. Broadly speaking, with proper technique, a thread lift can lift the buttocks, improve contour, and to a certain extent even diminish the look of cellulite.

Typically, a butt thread lift takes about 1 hour to complete, including the time it takes to numb the treatment area.

You should rest for about 24 hours after the procedure. This means you can return to work and normal everyday activities almost immediately. Strenuous physical activity should be avoided for about 1-3 weeks.

Good candidates for butt thread lifts are in good physical shape, near their ideal weight, and have acceptable muscle tone in the treatment area.

The lifting effects of the procedure can be seen almost immediately and last anywhere from 6-12 months. The collagen and elastin stimulating effects take about a month to kick in but can last a year or longer.

PDO thread lifts for butt enhancement help improve the perkiness and overall shape of the buttocks and skin quality. As the threads dissolve, they induce a potent blood vessel dilator called nitric oxide. This enhanced blood circulation enriches the skin with new collagen and elastin deposition, resulting in healthier, younger looking skin.

Loose, sagging skin will become more taut. Skin will also generally appear plumper and firmer. Clients may also see improvement in the appearance of cellulite and even stretch marks.

When Sculptra is used in addition to a thread lift, clients can expect to see a fuller, more rounded shape and less dimpling.
