“…[10] For mid-facial thread lifting, the threads are commonly inserted and placed above the SMAS layer. [9,11,12] In this study, the patients undergoing supra-SMAS plane thread lifting were included for comparison with the patients receiving sub-SMAS plane lifting. Although supra-SMAS plane technique yielded immediate improvement in mid-cheek, a signi cant difference in lifting effects between supra-SMAS and sub-SMAS groups was observed.…”

Background The mid-cheek groove appearance is a common deficiency of the midface. This study described a novel deep plane thread lifting via the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (sub-SMAS) spaces incorporating with knit-circuit technique. Methods A total of 156 procedures were performed on 78 patients (5 men and 73 women, mean age of 43.21 ± 8.22 years old) in the study. Patients respectively underwent two rejuvenation procedures: (a) sub-SMAS plane thread lift and (b) supra-SMAS plane thread lift. Patients were followed up to 6 months. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using GAIS scores. Safety assessment was conducted for both types of thread –lifting procedures. Photographs were taken preoperatively and postoperatively for additional objective comparisons Results The patients of sub-SMAS group exhibited greater degree of improvement compare with that of supra-SMAS groups. The differences in GAIS score among groups significantly increased over time. Sub-SMAS group showed a lower GAIS score 6 months post-procedure than supra-SMAS (p < 0.01). Sub-SMAS was shown to have a longer lasting visible effect than supra-SMAS. Conclusions This deep plane thread lifting via the sub-SMAS spaces incorporating with knit-circuit technique is a safe procedure for correcting mid-cheek groove with favorable longevity.

“…Of various types of PDO thread-lifts, the Mint Lift ® (HansBiomed Co., Ltd., Seoul, Korea) deserves special attention because it was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) [11]. Moreover, its clinical efficacy and safety have been well described in the literature [4,[12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20].…”

It is allegedly known that the thermal stability of the Mint Lift® (the Mint Lift® 17 and the Mint Lift® Fine; HansBiomed Co., Ltd., Seoul, Korea) over time might be lower as compared with thread-lifts processed through ultrasonic molding technology, such as the MEDI ROPE (WSM 19-03; CNG Co., Ltd., Gyeonggi, Korea), because the Mint Lift® undergoes a thermal treatment during the manufacturing process. We conducted this accelerated aging test to compare the thermal stability over time between the Mint Lift® and the MEDI ROPE. Thus, we measured the degrees of strength of the MEDI ROPE, the Mint Lift® 17, and the Mint Lift® Fine at 0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, and 17 weeks. Between 0 and 14 weeks, the Mint Lift® 17 and the Mint Lift® Fine had significantly higher degrees of strength as compared with the MEDI ROPE (p < 0.05). At 0, 5, and 10 weeks, the Mint Lift® 17 and the Mint Lift® Fine showed no notable differences in microscopic findings as compared with the MEDI ROPE. At 20 weeks, however, the integrities of the Mint Lift® 17 and the Mint Lift® Fine were better preserved as compared with the MEDI ROPE. In conclusion, our results indicate that the Mint Lift® 17 and the Mint Lift® Fine might be less vulnerable to degradation over time as compared with the MEDI ROPE under thermal conditions.
