Before and After Face and Neck Lift

Endotine Bioabsorbable Implant for Lifting the Cheek Pad and Mid-Face

Endotine Bioabsorbable Implant

These biodegradable products are used for pulling tissue upward and temporarily holding it in place until the the body has enough time to heal and hold the tissue in the new elevated position. These are non-toxic and just like absorbable sutures are completely eliminated from the body over time leaving no trace of the implant behind. By pulling the tissue upward, these implants can counter the effects of aging and gravity.

In this gentleman (above), a Endotine ST Implant was placed in the Mid-Face, through incisions hidden in the hairline and inside the mouth. The implant was positioned under the cheek tissue and the implant tines were engaged into the tissue (bottom left photo). Then with gentle traction on the implant the cheek tissue was pulled upward and secured under the temporal incision. The new position of the cheek pad (bottom right) creates fullness and youthfulness over the cheek bones, while softening the nasolabial lines.

This patient also had a Face/Neck Lift which enhanced the effects of the Endotine Implant. The Thread Face Lift another procedure for lifting the cheek and Mid-Face area cannot create the same effect as the Endotine Implant, because the barbed sutures used in this procedure are unable to produce the same forceful pull and maintain the heaviness of the tissue during the healing process. Unlike the Endotine Implant, sutures can break, stretch or be noticeable under the skin surface.

When I might use the Endotine ST Bioabsorbable Implant

Early Signs of Aging:

If you are in your late 30's to early 40's in age and are developing deeper creases of the Mid-face (Nasolabial lines), hollowness over the cheek bones and you have no significant neck looseness.

I can use these implants without any other procedure to create more youthfulness in the Mid-face.

Later Signs of Aging:

Although these can be used in conjunction with Face and Neck Lifting, I rarely use these in this type of scenario.
