Anti-Aging with Aptos Thread Lifting

Facial rejuvenation refers to cosmetic procedures that aim to address skin changes caused by natural aging, sun damage, gravity, and other environmental factors. In recent years, thread lifting has become a popular non-surgical option. This method involves supporting and repositioning superficial skin tissues to reduce sagging.

Thread lifting is a minimally invasive procedure that offers a non-surgical alternative to address excess skin laxity and stimulate new collagen growth. The procedure involves inserting absorbable threads under the skin to lift and reposition sagging skin. The threads are made from biocompatible materials that are naturally broken down by the body over time.

Aptos thread lifting methods are a popular choice for thread lifting procedures. They use specially designed threads with bidirectional and multi-directional barbs that enable doctors to lift and compact the volume of the cheekbones, reduce nasolabial folds and jowls, redefine the oval of the face, and reduce laxity in the neck. Their proprietary spring threads can accommodate strong muscle movements around the mouth and support the tissue to lessen the Marionette lines. Aptos thread lifting methods are also used to correct forehead ptosis, droopy eyebrows, and nose enhancement.

The procedure takes about an hour and is carried out under local anesthesia in strictly sterile conditions by fully trained doctors. The threads are inserted using a small needle, and the after-effects are mild, with only minor bruising or swelling. The post-procedure recommendations mainly involve avoiding sports and any local trauma for two weeks to allow the threads and tissue interaction to settle down.

The body gradually resorbs the threads over 18-24 months. As the threads are absorbed, they create a tissue-inducing effect that stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin in the skin. This new scaffold of collagen and elastin re-strengthens the skin and slows the process of aging.

Today, more people are choosing non-invasive treatments that can support collagen building, tissue tightening, and remodelling at every age. People are no longer waiting for things to go bad enough to consider surgery. The small-tweak approach can change the trajectory of how we age, and Aptos thread lifting methods are a popular option for those who want to avoid or delay surgical procedures.
