APTOS EXCELLENCE VISAGE METHOD
The procedure involves inserting threads into the soft tissues which are then pulled tight, lifting the skin. As a result, the face is redefined, volume restored & the effects of ageing are significantly absorbable. As absorbable threads dissolve naturally, the skin starts to produce more collagen and elastin which gives a longer-lasting result. The threads are inserted without incision in the skin, so the procedure is totally safe.
Thread lifts can be used to treat a number of different areas, from smoothing horizontal and vertical forehead wrinkles to lifting the brow and outer eyebrow area and restoring volume to sagging cheeks. They can also smooth lines around the mouth and tighten sagging skin under the lower jaw, lift and rejuvenate various parts of the body.
Results are evident immediately after the procedure and can last from 1,5 to 5 years, depending on the thread composition.

Take a Closer Look PDO PCL Thread
What is a thread lift?
Non-Surgical Facelift
This minimally invasive office procedure is a an excellent option for facial rejuvenation
A thread lift is a type of procedure when temporary resorbable sutures are placed under the skin by special canula with thread and used to produce a visible "lift" in the skin. It suspends the skin by stitching up portions of it. This has the effect of pulling the skin back slightly and therefore lifting and tightening the face. In addition to being ideal for lifting the skin, threads combat aging in another way: by provoking the body's "healing response" and causing the body to direct large surges of collagen to treated areas.
The threads are strategically placed to lift sagging skin and stimulate collagen production, which further tightens the skin over several months.
Expert Techniques, Exceptional Results with PDO PCL Facial Thread Face
Lifting Rejuvenation Contouring
PDO polydioxanone that has been used in surgical suturing of incisions, for years. Polycaprolactone (PCL) threads are slowly absorbed into the body within 1 to 2 years compared to PDO threads which take between six and eight months. Because of this, the results from a PCL thread lift last longer, and collagen production can continue for a further year once the threads have completely dissolved.
We use 3 rd generation PDO/PCL absorbable barbed and unbarbed suture threads for a natural-looking result that lifts and rejuvenates your appearance:

EYEBROW THREAD LIFT
An eyebrow lift with PDO/PCL threads, also known as a thread lift, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to elevate the brows and rejuvenate the upper face. This treatment is particularly effective for individuals seeking subtle improvements without undergoing surgery.
What to expect?
Patently-molded PDO/PCL thread, will be used in a minimally invasive procedure to target sagging jowls, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, nose, unwanted midface wrinkles, sagging neckline, undefined jaw lines, etc. to pull up the targeted areas and achieve a desired look. PDO/PCL threads are ideal for individuals who want to lift and tighten sagging skin, particularly in the neck and jowls.
Thread Lift is a temporary procedure and will not stop the process of aging; it will tighten, lift skin and improve wrinkles. From patient to patient, lifting results from ULTRA V Thread Lift may vary and continuation of ULTRA V Thread Lift is recommended for maintaining the effects of the lift.
Because thread lifts are so low-risk and boast such fast recovery time, it's possible to combine them with other nonsurgical procedures in order to create more comprehensive, noticeable results. Once your skin has healed around the threads inserted during an "InstaLift," it can be combined with a device treatment, mesotherapy, HA or CaHA fillers, neuromodulators like Xeomin or Botox.
While thread lifts can tighten the skin effectively, they aren't designed to address blemishes on the skin's surface. As such, banishing the superficial signs of aging—like age spots, areas of uneven pigmentation and fine lines—will require a technique known as "skin resurfacing." During skin resurfacing, the top layer of the dermis is removed, stripping away the aforementioned blemishes. A new, more youthful-looking layer of skin then grows in its place.
By combining a number of different nonsurgical anti-aging treatments, patients can achieve a profoundly positive change in their appearance – without enduring the extended recovery time associated with surgery.

What Should You Know
Although dissolvable PDO/PCL thread lifts are low risk procedures and inserted through a small round blunt cannula to avoid bleeding and swelling, every surgical procedure involves a certain amount of risk and complications.
Relapse
• Despite the thread effectively lifting areas listed above, it doesn't stop the aging process and over time and as the patient ages, wrinkles and sagging will recur.
Infection
• For prevention of infection and precautionary measure, the patient will receive a prescription for antibiotics to be taken as directed. Risk is low.
Bleeding & Bruising
• Like any other procedure, there is a possibility of bleeding and bruising, but it will subside after a couple days and 1-2 weeks respectively.
Scars
• Should an incision be made during the procedure, a scar may result, but it will typically be made along the hair line to avoid showing (speak to your doctor if an incision will be made, typically no incisions are made).
Pain or Discomfort
• Due to threads being placed in the skin, there may be discomfort in the area 
for several days after the procedure, but will lessen over time. Pain and 
discomfort can be managed by taking ibuprofen (ex. Motrin, Advil, etc.).
Disorder of face movement
• This is rare, but depending on the pulling within the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) layer, it can affect a branch of the facial nerve 
and can cause disorders in facial movements, however this typically recovers over time.
Skin discolouration or isch
• Skin ischemia is the loss of blood circulation which leads to discolouration of the skin. This is very rare with ULTRA V Lift treatments, but should this occur, additional treatments or surgery may be necessary.
Dimpling and Bunching
• Dimpling and bunching may occur due to the barbed threads being placed inside the skin, however this can be massaged out. Should these occur, additional treatments including surgery may be necessary.
Visibility.
• Visibility of threads may apply to patients with thin skin or when inserted into thin skinned areas on the face. Should this occur, additional treatments or surgery may be necessary.
Migration
• After the ULTRA V Lift procedure, there is possibility of thread migration which may lead to further treatment of thread removal.
