The two main signs of facial aging are loss of skin tone causing sagging of facial contours called elastosis and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
This of course develops with age and is due to the loss of collagen production in the skin. Collagen is found in all structures of the body, especially the skin, and ensures the cohesion, elasticity, and regeneration of tissues. Collagen production diminishes with age and therefore the skin reduces in firmness and starts to sag. The face also loses fat which results in a hollow caved-in appearance.
In the field of SOMATOLOGY / AESTHETICS / HEALTH AND SKINCARE, the effects of aging and the causes thereof are covered in great depth. Different anti-aging solutions are available to either restore volume, using targeted injections/ dermal fillers or tighten the skin by means of more invasive interventions. Soft Sutures however is a unique treatment that offers a non-invasive solution to both. A discreet and immediate lifting effect is achieved as soon as the suture is applied. The face is reshaped by means of a double action: compressing and elevating the tissue. The component of the suture is then gradually absorbed by the body, and this allows the polylactic acid to restore the shape of the face offering a natural and regenerating effect.

The sutures come in the form of bidirectional absorbable thread cones. It is made in the United States and its development is based on six years of experience in suture suspension with cones.
