Facial and body threads can be indicated to treat photoaging, facial asymmetry, fine and thick wrinkles, furrows, mild to moderate facial ptosis, from neck and areas of the full body. The ultrasound guided procedure (UGP) is a concept of anatomical location, in real time, for procedures that needs a great visualization of noble structures, as well as granules caused by the use of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), material so much used for decades in aesthetic procedures and can be the causal agent of many complications, compared to the modern techniques of facial harmonization (FH). In this way, the complications related to the proper insertion of the threads end up being almost completely avoided with UGP, providing greater security for those procedures. Thus, this article seeks to evidence the ultrasonography importance (US) for FH and show its notoriety as a diagnostic and help procedures performed by FH.
