Hello, my wonderful Classy friends!
In the video below, you will see my DIY treatment with PCL threads to restore volume in my cheek area.
PCL (Polycaprolactone) threads are an excellent choice for restoring cheek volume due to their unique properties that go beyond just a physical lift. These threads are a biostimulatory material, meaning they actively encourage your body to produce its own natural collagen. When inserted into the cheek area, they initiate a controlled healing response, stimulating the cells responsible for creating collagen and elastin. This leads to a significant increase in these vital proteins, naturally adding subtle, natural-looking volume and improving the overall density and structure of the skin in the cheeks.
What sets PCL threads apart is their slow degradation rate. They dissolve much more gradually than other common threads, often lasting between 18 months and 3 years before fully absorbing. This extended presence means the collagen stimulation continues for a longer period, resulting in more sustained and long-lasting volume restoration in the cheeks.
Beyond the volume, this continuous collagen production also leads to improved skin elasticity and firmness. Over time, the treated area becomes more resilient and youthful, enhancing the overall cheek contour. PCL threads are also known for their flexibility and biocompatibility, contributing to a comfortable experience and natural results without feeling stiff or unnatural.
PCL threads don’t just lift; they actively rebuild the underlying support structure of the cheeks by maximizing natural collagen production, providing durable and authentic-looking volume enhancement.
