APTOS Thread Lift

APTOS Thread Lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate sagging facial and body tissues. Using absorbable threads with patented barbs, this treatment offers an alternative to traditional facelifts—without the need for surgery. In addition to lifting, APTOS threads stimulate collagen production and enhance skin hydration, texture, and tone.

About the Service

Overview

Products we Use

APTOS® threads are made from absorbable materials and come in various types—smooth, barbed, or twisted—to target specific tissue layers. All procedures are performed using official APTOS technology by certified providers trained in thread lift methodology.

How it Works

The threads are inserted into targeted areas using fine needles under local anesthesia. Once in place, the barbs gently lift sagging skin and stimulate collagen production. Over time, the threads are absorbed, leaving behind firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
