Female patient N.T.H, 25 years old, in Hanoi, suffered from a severe infection and necrosis in her nose with exposed threads, causing infection. According to the patient, she was introduced to a spa by a friend without carefully researching the facility. After 3 months of thread lifting, the patient began to see her nose red, swollen, pus-filled and perforated. Not stopping there, the bridge of her nose also began to show threads.
At the Aesthetic Center, Dr. Ngo Gia Tien said that the patient's nose was severely infected. The doctor treated the abscess and removed about 15 threads from the nose. However, due to the long time of thread tension (3 months), the threads were soaked in a contaminated environment for a long time, causing them to rupture and pus to flow out. When treating an infection, it is difficult to avoid leaving unsightly scars. Doctors try to ensure that the foreign object is completely removed from the nose and prevent further infection.
"Complications caused by thread lift causing infection can be extremely dangerous. Once the threads are infected, removing them becomes very difficult and often impossible to remove completely. These threads will gradually dissolve in the infected environment, causing serious damage to the face. The treatment process will inevitably leave scars and can lead to facial deformities if not treated promptly. This is a serious warning about the potential risks of thread lift and people need to be extremely careful" - Dr. Tien shared.
Tet is also the time when people's beauty needs are increasing, people's beauty needs are increasing, Dr. Tien recommends: People need to carefully research the facility performing rhinoplasty surgery, ensure the practice certificate and valid operating license, as well as the reputation of that facility. If after rhinoplasty there are any unusual signs, go immediately to reputable medical facilities with experienced doctors for timely examination and treatment, to avoid serious complications.
Nose thread lift is a method that uses medical threads to raise the bridge of the nose, straighten the nose and make the nose higher. These threads are made from absorbable or non-absorbable materials, helping to stimulate collagen production, creating a skin tightening and nose lifting effect. This is a cosmetic method that is favored by many people because it is quick, convenient and minimally invasive. However, this method has not been recognized by the FDA, is not long-lasting, and has caused many complications that have been seen recently such as tilted, crooked nose bridge, thick fibrous capsule exposed wave, or perforated nose.
