Abstract
One of the main consequences of skin aging is the progressive reduction of the subcutaneous tissue with loss of firmness and tone of the tissues. By the association of high-intensity focused ultrasound and biostimulation threads, a lifting-like effect can be achieved without the post-operative and the risks of surgical lifting. The TBS Lift is indicated in all those cases in which there are signs of body aging related above all to skin laxity. High intensity focused ultrasound used in this study causes tissue warming and contraction to a depth of 4.5 mm. They also stimulate the collagen genesis in the superficial and deep dermis at 1.5 mm and 3.0 mm. In my experience it is useful, in order to amplify the results of high intensity focused ultrasound, the association with the polydoxanone biostimulation threads, a medical device already widely used in general surgery and cardiovascular surgery. By inserting the threads into the skin tissue immediately after performing the high-intensity focused ultrasound , an improvement of the final effect is obtained and an increase in the duration of the obtained improvement. This is because in turn polidioxanone stimulates the production of collagen and cell metabolism, while increasing the microcirculation and therefore the flow of blood in the treated areas. The whole procedure is outpatient, takes just around an hour, does not require anesthesia or at most a local anesthesia for the insertion of the threads in particularly sensitive patients. The results on the firming and compacting of the skin are appreciated gradually until obtaining the maximum result in about 3 months. Results stable one year from treatment, The TBS Lift is aimed at patients who have a slight breakdown of body tissues or who want a preventive intervention. The treatment is indicated to counteract the skin failure of arms, thighs and knees. The association of the two methods in the same session also allows a clear economic advantage.
