What is the downside?
Really nothing, as long as you understand that the sutures themselves dissolve over the course of a year, so it is not permanent. Your body will make collagen around the sutures, so you will get more than a year out of your result, but you may have to repeat it over time. Unfortunately, permanent sutures were used in the past, and due to complications, they were banned. So, we devised a new method – absorbable sutures. You still get the same amazing and natural results, but without the complications. Yes, you may need it repeated, but it’s a very well-tolerated procedure that’s done in the office with no downtime.
