Thread lift - instant and long lasting effects

The effects of the treatment

Thread Lift procedure results in a quick tissue lifting and long lasting skin rejuvenation. The lifting effect is visible immediately after the procedure, while the visible skin renewal is noticeable after 2-3 months. Over the next few days, the effect of the treatment is not yet final, because it will be disturbed by swelling or hematoma. Only after their absorption will we enjoy the full effect, which will be further improved as a result of revitalizing the skin.

The effect lasts from 3 to 5 years, depending on the threads, applications and individual tissue characteristics selected. Threads can be combined with many other aesthetic medicine therapies, such as fillers and biostimulation treatments.

Doctor's opinion

Aptos threads offer a very good results, but take note - this is a surgical procedure for advanced doctors, and patient candidates. As performed on tissue layers deeper than typical injection procedures, it requires a very good knowledge of facial anatomy. It should be performed by surgeons or dermatologists with extensive surgical experience. If you as a patient do afraid of hematoma or cannot afford imperfections in appearance for several days, it may be better to consider onother treatments – Dr. Ilona Osadowska.
