Facial Thread Bio-Resorbable Lift
Why choose a thread lift? Because it provides a rapid rejuvenating effect while eliminating elements related to invasive surgical procedures: general anesthesia, scalpel, and long recovery times.
The procedure is one of the most widely used facial rejuvenation methods worldwide, erasing 10 years from the patient’s face with a natural and contoured effect. The quality of the threads used and the doctor’s experience are essential to achieve a natural appearance and eliminate aging effects without altering facial features. Because I care about the safety of my patients and the performance of the services offered, I recommend using internationally certified APTOS nano threads, which have been awarded by top authorities in the field for years.
WHEN IS A THREAD LIFT RECOMMENDED AND WHAT DOES IT TREAT?
- Brow lift
- Cheek contouring and lifting
- Redefinition of the jawline and correction of the mouth corners
- Elimination of nasolabial folds (vertical wrinkles around the mouth)
- Elimination of double chin or softening folds in that area
- Softening neck folds
- Total facial lifting
This minimally invasive procedure redefines sagging areas and achieves a global rejuvenation with a natural appearance. It does not change facial features but enhances them, highlighting the attributes aging has diminished.
An alternative to thread lifting is a surgical facial lift for the face and neck, with spectacular results.
SAFE PROCEDURE, NO ADVERSE EFFECTS
Threads are positioned at a depth of 3-5 mm maximum, so there is no risk of affecting nerves or blood vessels. They are bio-resorbable, therefore they “dissolve” over time.
CHOOSE THE “WEEKEND” LIFT WITH QUICK RECOVERY!
WHEN WILL RESULTS BE VISIBLE AND HOW LONG DO THEY LAST?
Results are visible immediately, but 100% of them can be observed 2-3 weeks after the procedure. Time is required for the body to “assimilate” them and for them to start stimulating the production of natural compounds for skin rejuvenation, in addition to the immediate lifting effect.
THREAD LIFT PROCEDURE
Avoid aspirin and any vasodilator compounds before the procedure.
Each thread is inserted using a cannula—a needle-shaped tube. The face and neck must be completely makeup-free. An antiseptic solution is applied before the procedure, and the thread insertion points are marked with guideline lines.
The procedure is completely painless as it is performed under local anesthesia. Duration varies depending on the selected areas, reaching a maximum of 45 minutes for a full lift.
POST-PROCEDURE INDICATIONS FOR THREAD LIFT
- Pay extra attention to hygiene
- Avoid hot water
- Avoid facial muscle contractions (wide smiles, frowning, etc.) – face must remain relaxed
- Avoid intense physical activity
- Do not use: sauna, steam treatments, or exposure to pool or sea water
- Facial massage is prohibited
- For maximum effect with other rejuvenation procedures, wait 30 days before botulinum toxin injections
RISKS AND SIDE EFFECTS OF THREAD LIFT
- Mild pain
- Swelling
- Temporary asymmetry
- Temporary bruising at thread insertion points
HOW LONG DO PDO BIO-RESORBABLE THREAD LIFT EFFECTS LAST?
Effects last a maximum of 1.5 – 2 years.
WHO CANNOT HAVE A THREAD LIFT?
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Those on anticoagulant medication
- Presence of skin infections in the treatment area
- Patients with autoimmune diseases
- Patients allergic to threads
- If previous injections of non-absorbable products exist – granulomas may occur
WHY I RECOMMEND USING APTOS THREADS?
- They have a special structure with hooks that fix the tissue while shaping it for a complex, natural result.
- Composed of two biocompatible and fully resorbable materials: polylactic acid and caprolactone.
- APTOS innovation focuses on the thread hook, which can catch and hold tissue while shaping it in different directions for a complex and natural result.
