Minimally Invasive Aesthetic Procedures

Abstract

Rejuvenation of gluteal region is still an unaesthetic condition to be explored a lot, even more because of the lack of good procedures that could provide outstanding outcome. In this chapter, we will explore the experience of our team on using aesthetic, absorbable threads in order to settle a neocollagenesis environment, which improves local skin texture and, consequently, skin sagging.
