With the introduction of absorbable/biodegradable mesonites to the global market, this procedure has become very popular in aesthetic medicine in recent years. Mesonite application is a highly effective anti-aging treatment with significant lifting effects and improved skin texture. The procedure is minimally invasive, painless and results are visible immediately after treatment.
Mesonites are threads made of biodegradable materials such as polylactic acid and polycaprolactone. These materials are safe for the human body and are fully reabsorbed over time.
Along the threads, there are tiny “hooks” that mechanically lift the skin, producing a lifting effect. Mesonites stimulate the production of collagen and elastin—proteins that improve skin elasticity and quality. Over time, as the threads begin to be reabsorbed, a network of connective tissue forms, supporting the subcutaneous tissue and skin, resulting in a long-lasting lifting effect in the treated area.
New-generation mesonites are coated with 40 mg of hyaluronic acid, which further enhances hydration and gives the skin a fresher and more radiant appearance. The lifting effect of mesonites lasts up to two and a half years, after which mild corrections can be performed.
Mesonites are mainly intended for individuals with sagging facial and neck skin or early signs of skin laxity, pronounced nasolabial folds, marionette lines, or those who want to lift their eyebrows and subtly enhance cheekbone definition. Mesonites can be considered a non-surgical facelift.
Mesonites are inserted into the skin or subcutaneous tissue using a needle, without the need for large incisions. Local anesthesia or anesthetic cream may be used during the procedure.
Before the procedure, the physician marks the areas of the face or body to be treated, ensuring precise application. Using a thin needle, the mesonites are carefully inserted into the skin or subcutaneous tissue. After insertion, the needle is removed while the threads remain under the skin. The threads fully dissolve over several months.The needles are designed to be minimally invasive, making the procedure highly precise with a low risk of complications.
The threads are placed in specific directions to achieve the desired facelift effect. They can be positioned vertically to lift sagging areas (such as the cheeks), horizontally to define facial contours, or in various directions to improve overall skin laxity.
After the treatment, a soothing cream is applied, and the patient can immediately return to daily activities. In the Dermatology and Venereology Clinic of Dr. Alendar, we offer high-quality certified Aptos mesonites.
