Yastrid PLLA Screw Threads FAQ
Why are more and more doctors starting to prefer PLLA screw threads over PDO screw threads?
Compared with traditional PDO threads, PLLA screw threads have a stronger biostimulatory effect and a longer collagen regeneration cycle.
Yastrid PLLA screw threads not only provide immediate volumizing support but also can continuously stimulate the synthesis of type I and type III collagen.
For doctors seeking natural and long-term anti-aging solutions, PLLA is currently a key trend material in high-end facial rejuvenation treatments.
Will PLLA threads be more prone to breakage compared to PDO?
This is one of the issues that many doctors pay the most attention to when purchasing PLLA lifting threads.
Since the hardness of PLLA material is higher than that of PDO, if the manufacturing process is unstable, it is indeed possible to increase the risk of brittleness.
Yastrid PLLA Screw Threads Through:
- Optimized molecular structure
- High tensile strength engineering
- Controlled elasticity balance
To enhance the flexibility of the wire and improve its resistance to fracture.
During the process of online body pushing, movement organization, and patient expression activities, it is possible to maintain stable structural integrity and reduce the risk of intraoperative damage.
Is the helical structure of Yastrid PLLA twist threads prone to loosening and straightening?
No. The core value of screw threads lies in their volumizing spiral structure. If the winding stability of the threads is insufficient, they may become loose prematurely when entering the subcutaneous tissue, thereby losing their volume-enhancing effect.
Are the nodules associated with Yastrid PLLA threads more likely to occur?
The risk of nodules is usually closely related to factors such as implantation depth, product purity, and injection technique.
Yastrid PLLA screw threads are made of the following:
- Medical-grade Poly-L-Lactic Acid
- Controlled degradation technology
- Low inflammatory response formulation
Help reduce the risk of granuloma formation, delayed-onset nodules, and excessive foreign-body reactions.
At the same time, we recommend that the PLLA threads be implanted in the correct subcutaneous layer or superficial SMAS plane to avoid overly shallow implantation, which may lead to palpable thread visibility or the risk of local nodules.
Does Yastrid offer different specifications of PLLA twist threads?
Yes.
For different anatomical treatment areas, Yastrid offers a complete specification system, including:
30G 25mm → Under-eye hollows / fine lines
29G 38mm → Mid-face rejuvenation
27G 50mm / 60mm → Cheek & jawline support
At the same time, support is provided for:
PLLA Mono Screw Threads
PLLA Double Screw Threads
PLLA Tornado Threads
Satisfy different
Volume deficiency severity
Skin thickness
Lifting intensity requirements
Help doctors establish more comprehensive, personalized thread lifting protocols.
What sterilization method is used for Yastrid PLLA twist threads? Is the residual EO safe?
Yastrid PLLA Twist Threads are produced using the professional EO sterilization process.
Because the PLLA material is sensitive to high temperatures, EO sterilization can provide better protection:
Polymer stability
Thread flexibility
Structural consistency
At the same time, we strictly control:
EO residue levels
Aeration period
Sterility assurance standards
Ensure that the product complies with medical device safety requirements and reduce the following:
- Post-treatment redness
- Tissue irritation
- Allergic response risk
How long can PLA twist threads generally last?
Compared to PDO threads, PLLA twist threads usually have a longer clinical longevity.
In general:
- PLLA degradation cycle: Approximately 12–18 months
- Collagen remodeling effect: Lasts much longer
- Since PLLA is a collagen-inducing biomaterial, the actual aesthetic improvement
- usually continues to enhance over the period of 3 to 6 months after the surgery.
