APTOS Thread Lift

APTOS Threads – The Pioneering Thread Lift from Georgia APTOS threads are a world-first patented barbed thread, originally developed in Georgia over 25 years ago. These threads have been widely used in the medical field for many years, ensuring high safety and reliability. Made from a combination of PLA (Polylactic Acid) and PCA (Polycaprolactone) in a 75:25 ratio, APTOS threads act as biostimulators, stimulating collagen production for enhanced skin rejuvenation. The threads are also coated with Hyaluronic Acid, allowing for superior tissue adhesion and a more secure lift.

APTOS Thread Lift – A Solution for Wrinkled and Sagging Skin

Introducing APTOS Thread Lift
APTOS threads are barbed threads from Georgia, and they were the first of their kind in the world. Patented 25 years ago, these threads have been widely used in the medical field, ensuring high safety and effectiveness.

The threads are made from a unique blend of PLA (Polylactic Acid) and PCA (Polycaprolactone) in a 75:25 ratio, which acts as a biostimulator to promote collagen production. Additionally, they are coated with Hyaluronic Acid (HA), enhancing the adhesion to tissues and improving lift stability.

What sets APTOS apart is that it is the only thread in the world with Hyaluronic Acid, which not only stimulates collagen and elastin production but also accelerates the creation of new collagen. Furthermore, HA helps reduce inflammation, making the procedure safer and more comfortable.

Available APTOS Thread Variants in Thailand:

Currently, APTOS threads available in Thailand come in 4 variations, including options with and without Hyaluronic Acid. Each variant is available in two lengths: 19 cm and 10 cm, with 10 threads per box. The recommended usage is 10 threads per session.

10 cm Threads are ideal for targeted areas such as the cheeks, eyebrow tail, and nose.
19 cm Threads are perfect for a full-face lift, providing overall skin tightening and rejuvenation.

APTOS threads are a cutting-edge, non-surgical solution for lifting and tightening the skin, restoring a more youthful, sculpted appearance.

Why Choose APTOS Threads Over Other Thread Lifts?

USFDA-Approved and Globally Registered
APTOS threads are USFDA-approved and registered in over 90 countries worldwide, ensuring a high standard of safety and efficacy.
The Only Threads with Hyaluronic Acid (HA)
APTOS is the first and only thread in the world that contains Hyaluronic Acid (HA). This unique feature helps stimulate collagen production, enhancing skin regeneration and improving overall skin quality.
Long-Lasting Results
APTOS threads can last up to 18 months, providing a long-lasting lift and rejuvenation effect without the need for frequent touch-ups.
Immediate Results
You can see the results immediately after the procedure, making it a quick and effective solution for facial lifting and skin tightening.
Non-Surgical, Lower Risk
Unlike traditional surgery, APTOS thread lifting is non-invasive, reducing the risks of scarring, infections, or inflammation. This makes it a safe, low-risk alternative for those looking to enhance their facial contours without going under the knife.

How the APTOS Thread Lift Procedure Works

APTOS threads are made from the same material used in heart surgery sutures, ensuring high safety and reliability. The threads have a unique design with small fishbone barbs, which effectively anchor the tissue beneath the skin. This feature allows the threads to lift and tighten the skin immediately after insertion.

The Procedure:

The APTOS thread lift is a non-surgical procedure that does not require general anesthesia. Local anesthesia is applied to the target areas, and the treatment is performed using a thin needle to create very tiny entry points in the skin. APTOS threads are then carefully placed under the skin in specific layers to lift and tighten the tissues.

The entire process typically takes between 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area.

Aftercare:

There is no need for hospitalization or long recovery periods after the procedure.
You may apply a cold compress to reduce swelling during the first 24 hours.
Small pinpoint marks from the needles will appear on the skin, but these will fade within 1 week.

Long-Term Effects:

During the first 1 to 6 months, APTOS threads stimulate new collagen production under the skin. After 6 months, the collagen formed around the threads will work to further tighten and lift the facial muscles, enhancing the overall lifting effect.

For longer-lasting results, additional treatments such as skin tightening devices can be done to further stimulate collagen production and maintain skin firmness.

Precautions for APTOS Thread Lift

Although the APTOS thread lift offers numerous benefits, there are still some precautions to be aware of. Occasionally, there may be risks of minor wounds or inflammation, so it’s essential that the procedure is performed by a qualified and experienced doctor.

Possible Side Effects:

A slight burning or warm sensation in the face during or after the procedure.
Mild inflammation or infection in the treated areas.

If necessary, APTOS threads can be removed by a professional.

How to Prepare for an APTOS Thread Lift

Consult with a Doctor: Have a consultation to assess your facial structure and discuss the issues you want to address.
Avoid Certain Medications: Discontinue medications and supplements such as Aspirin, NSAIDs, and Vitamin E1-2 weeks before the procedure, as they can increase the risk of bleeding.
Inform Your Doctor: Notify your doctor about any allergies to medications, vitamins, or regular prescriptions you are taking.

Avoid Alcohol: Refrain from drinking alcohol for 24 hours before the procedure.

No Alcohol Consumption: Avoid all types of alcohol for 7 days post-procedure.

Avoid Other Treatments: Do not undergo treatments like laser therapy or other aesthetic procedures for 2 months.
Gentle Facial Movements: Be gentle with your mouth and facial expressions during the first few days to avoid putting stress on the threads.
Bruising and Swelling: Some swelling, redness, or bruising may occur at the thread entry points; this is normal and will subside within 2-3 days. Do not rub, scratch, or press on the treated areas.
