This case study addresses a patient concerned about prominent cheekbones after a thread lift. The patient expresses a desire to return to their pre-procedure appearance, stating that the thread lift made their face look wider. The doctor explains that the thread lift pulled the cheekbones, causing the face to appear wider, and advises that procedures like Ulthera or Thermage would have been more suitable. Despite this, it is confirmed that the previous procedure did result in a more refined head contour. The doctor recommends refraining from additional procedures for one year, and the video shows changes in facial contour through before-and-after comparison photos and CT analysis.
