Background To investigate the efficacy and outcomes associated with eyebrow, midface, mandibular, and neck lifting using the innovative techniques. Materials and Methods In this prospective review chart study, a total of 151 patients, were included in the study from January 2016 to May 2017. All participants underwent thread lifting using our innovative thread‐lift technique for head and neck. The patients were followed up first week, first, third, and sixth month after lifting surgery. Outcomes were assessed by two surgeon and patients based on the GAIS score. All data were analyzed by SPSS‐17 software with chi‐square test. Results A total of 151 patients (mean age: 52.49 ± 10.67, range: 27‐78 years), 16 (10.6%) men and 135 (89.4%) women, were included in the study. The most common sites for the face‐lifting surgery were the mandible (49.7%), midface (37.1%), neck (7.9%), and eyebrow (5.3%), respectively. The level of satisfaction increased from 77.5% in the first week after surgery to 89.4% in the sixth month after surgery for patients, remained unchanged, 96% for the surgeon, and increased from 74.8% to 94.7% for the independent surgeon. The highest rate of potential complications after the lifting surgery was related to ecchymosis (23.2%), followed by complications of tumefaction (6.6%), pain (6.6%), and pain (5.2%). Conclusion The results showed that the level satisfaction of patients and surgeons increased over time. It seems that facial rejuvenation thread lifting with this innovative technique is effectiveness, safe, and cosmetically more acceptance with minor complications than other face‐lifting techniques.

“…1,2 Recently, there has been a growing trend for patients to pursue minimally invasive treatments with reduced risk of side effects and downtime to correct wrinkles and laxity. 2,[6][7][8] However, some patients dislike the idea of insertion of nonabsorbable threads that remain permanently in the facial soft tissue. 4 The evolution of thread lifting techniques and their application in the field of aesthetic procedure is now in its third decade.…”

“…However, to some elderly patients, thread lift alone is not sufficient to counteract facial soft tissue ptosis, and conventional therapy would be the choice. In addition, based on our thread lifting technique, we should make temporal incisions to complete the thread lift technique [6]. However, through the dissected plane via lateral SMASectomy, our combined technique does not require any additional incisions.…”

Original lateral SMASectomy has several advantages over conventional SMAS elevation. However, it was felt that lateral SMASectomy alone caused unsatisfactory results with regard to undercorrection of midface ptosis. Thread lifting was added to counteract the remaining aesthetic problem. The purpose of this study is to describe the combined surgical techniques adopted. The procedure was performed under local anaesthesia with intravenous sedation. When indicated, liposuction for free fat transfer to the malar area, nasolabial folds, is performed with a Coleman fat aspiration cannula. After access skin incision, dissection extends across the zygoma to release the zygomatic ligaments and masseteric cutaneous ligaments. Then the SMAS flap was designed. The superior border of the incision was approximately at the level of the zygomatic arch and the inferior border was ∼4-5 cm below the jaw line. After SMAS resection, closure is performed by elevating the inferomedial corner of the flap in a superolateral direction, fixed lateral portion suture to mobile anterior fascia. Then, thread lifting was performed to correct midface ptosis (medial side). The skin was marked preoperatively to determine the appropriate vector of the thread and its 2-3 end fixation points. The facelift sutures were inserted through the cannula from the midface to the dissected open wound. After that free fat graft was performed for volumetric support, when indicated. The overall surgical time was less than 90 minutes. This combination therapy would be ideal therapy with elderly patients with significant midface ptosis and prominent nasolabial folds.
