The procedure for Golden Threads is carried out by grafting threads into the facial skin in the form of thin grid, which sustains weakened muscles.  The skin becomes firm and springy and smooths out wrinkles. The face takes on a younger appearance.

The effect can last up to 10 years after treatment when the threads are absorbed.   Treatment is recommended to people over 30. Some before and after pictures for Golden Threads

EFFECT  Human skin  consists of 90% water and is a great conductor for gold ions, moving beyond the implants.  Around the gold ions arises new blood vessels causing better supply of blood.  The threads stimulate collagen and elastin production which is a natural reaction to a foreign body being grafted in.   Gold also favours supplying skin with oxygene, removes tiredness and rebuilds cells.  Around every implanted thread arise a framework of new cells.  The blood supply in the strengthened area improves, and the skin becomes firmer and smoother.   Gold doesn’t cause allergic reaction, doesn’t oxidize and doesn’t cause rejection.

GOLDEN THREADS are made of the highest quality gold 999.9, 10mm in diameter, ecologically clean, are easily adopted by the organism. Threads can be implanted into different parts of the body, mostly into the face, i.e. cheeks, chin, temples and neck, decolletage, breasts and even buttocks and shoulders.

TREATMENT’S DESCRIPTION  The thread is inserted into the skin using a thin needle which enables insertion under the skin without damage to it.  Threads are invisible and imperceptible.  During the operation, which lasts about 30 minutes, local anaesthetic is used. After the operation some swelling may sustain for up to 2 days, and for up to 7 days the area where threads were implanted may be in bruise.

SAFETY golden threads have a CE certificate of treatment’s efficacy, which is carried out by a certified doctor.  Material for treatment is manufactured by the Spain   pharmaceutical company, which has been engaged in threads implantation into the skin for 40 years.

CONTRAINDICATIONS allergy to anaesthetic (lignocaine, novocaine), bad blood coagulation, diabetes, pregnancy. Treatment doesn’t cause side effects.
