Do you feel like your glutes have lost firmness and tone? Sagging and lack of muscle tone in this area can affect our confidence and self-esteem. But don't worry, the tension threads in the buttocks are an effective solution!
Buttock thread lifts are the answer for lifting and firming this problematic area. Made with polydioxanone (PDO), these threads are inserted beneath the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. The result is a noticeable improvement in the firmness and lift of the buttocks, achieving a more youthful and aesthetic appearance.

What is polydioxanone?
The polydioxanone, also known as PDO, is a material used in medicine and aesthetics. It's a type of biodegradable synthetic polymer, meaning it can be safely broken down and eliminated by the body over time.
The threads act as a temporary scaffolding on the skin, stimulating, as we mentioned before, the production of collagen and elastin to improve the appearance and texture of treated skin.
Once the threads have fulfilled their function, the polydioxanone gradually breaks down in the body and is eliminated naturally. This occurs over several months, and the degradation process leaves no toxic residue in the body.

Is thread lift treatment on the buttocks painful?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia to minimize any discomfort or pain. The anesthesia will numb the treatment area, helping to ensure the thread insertion is as comfortable as possible.
You may experience some discomfort during the procedure, such as mild pressure or pulling, but in most cases it is not considered painful. Some people may experience discomfort or tenderness after treatment, but this is usually temporary and disappears within a few days.
It's important to keep in mind that each person has a different pain tolerance, so sensations may vary. If you have specific concerns about pain or discomfort during buttock thread lift treatment, I recommend discussing them with one of our professionals before proceeding. At Carmen J Guerra Aesthetic Medical Center We can provide you with more information and address your concerns to ensure you have the most comfortable experience possible.

Post-treatment care
After thread lift treatment on your buttocks, it's important to follow certain precautions to ensure proper recovery and achieve the best results. Below are some general tips:
- Avoid strenuous activities: For the first few days after treatment, it's advisable to avoid intense physical activity, such as vigorous exercise or weight lifting. This helps allow the threads to settle properly.
- Do not manipulate the treated area: It is essential to avoid touching or massaging the area of the buttocks where the threads were placed. Manipulating them could dislodge them or interfere with their tightening effect.
- Sleeping in the proper position: During the first few days after the procedure, it is advisable to sleep on your side to avoid direct pressure on your buttocks.
- Avoid sun exposure and intense heat: Avoid prolonged sun exposure and sauna or hot bath sessions for the first few weeks after treatment. This helps prevent any further inflammation or complications.
- Follow your doctor's instructions: Follow all recommendations provided by your specialist. This may include using specific creams or lotions, as well as scheduling follow-up visits to evaluate the results and make adjustments if necessary.
Contraindications of gluteal thread lifts
The treatment may not be suitable for everyone. There are some contraindications and factors that may affect the suitability of the procedure. Below are some contraindications to keep in mind:
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding: It is recommended to avoid this type of treatment during pregnancy and breastfeeding, as there is not enough information on the effects on the fetus or infant.
- Active infections or skin conditions: If there are active infections or skin conditions in the treatment area, your doctor may not recommend thread lift until these conditions resolve.
- Blood clotting disorders: People with blood clotting disorders, such as hemophilia or the use of blood-thinning medications, may be at higher risk for complications and may not be ideal candidates for thread lift treatment.
- Known allergies to the materials used: If you have known allergies to the components used in the thread lifts, such as polydioxanone (PDO) or other materials used in the procedure, it is important to inform your doctor before undergoing treatment.
- Autoimmune diseases or connective tissue disorders: Some autoimmune diseases or connective tissue disorders can affect healing and response to thread lift. In these cases, your doctor may carefully evaluate the suitability of treatment.
It's essential to discuss your complete medical history and any existing health conditions with your specialist before undergoing buttock thread lift treatment. At Carmen J Guerra Medical Aesthetic Center, we can evaluate your specific case, determine any contraindications, and offer you the safest and most appropriate options.
