Abstract
Thread lifting has recently become one of the most performed minimally invasive procedures. However, it might have relative short longevity and less effectiveness as compared to conventional facelifts. However, conventional facelifts frequently result in surgical scars. Here we introduce short scar rhytidectomies with thread lifting, which result in minimal scars and increased effectiveness.
