“…Several strands were inserted into the subcutaneous a tiny incision was made in the temporal region, and the remaining portion of the thread was trimmed and gently tugged [46] . Figure 4 Fig 4 : Aptos threads [48] This thread included convergent barbs and was designed to be inserted into the subcutaneous tissue using a guiding needle Figure 5, so it doesn`t become necessary to perform a previous incision.

An atrophic scar is a prevalent cosmetic condition. It happens as a result of diminished production of connective tissue, and inadequate compensation of dermal collagen that happens throughout the process of tissue regeneration following injuries. Various techniques may be employed for dealing with atrophic scars, including subcision, peeling with chemicals, dermabrasion, punch grafting, and the application of filler materials to improve depressed areas. Subcision, or subcutaneous incisionless operations, is a kind of surgery that targets various skin issues such as atrophic scarring from acne, wrinkles, depressed scarring, and cellulite. The subcision technique for scar healing involves the release of fibrotic strands that are located underneath the scars, the organization of blood inside the resulting dermal pocket, and the development of connective tissue in the scarred region. Threads insertion has become a common trend in soft tissue and facial skin suspension. The threads function by being inserted into the human body's tissues, which prompts the development of a fibrous capsule around them. This capsule may serve as a supportive structure inside the soft tissue matrix. Additionally, the presence of inflammation leads to an increase in collagen.

Eyebrow elevation and reshaping are common concerns that we handle in everyday practice, and we have noticed that the trend is shifting from a medical concern to a cosmetic one. Several eyebrow lift methods are available, both invasive and non-surgical. The method of choice depends on several factors, such as patient expectations and beliefs, financial budget, acceptance of downtime and the available tools in the practice. In this article, we review the recent literature on non-surgical eyebrow lift methods to provide an overview of the current state of this field. We discuss seven different methods for eyebrow lift and reshaping, including botulinum toxin, dermal fillers, fractional radiofrequency, high-intensity focused ultrasound, thermo-mechanical ablation, lasers, and threads. Moreover, we provide practical insight into the procedure, injection techniques, expected results, and patient satisfaction rate.
