Aptos Threads
Aptos Threads are a cutting-edge development in the field of non-surgical cosmetic enhancements. Our professional cosmetologists in Tbilisi offer this minimally invasive solution for lifting and rejuvenating the skin. This innovative technique uses biocompatible, absorbable threads to tighten and lift the sagging areas of the face and neck, providing a fresher, more youthful appearance.
The threads used in this procedure are made from a material called polylactic acid + caprolactone P(LA/CL), which has been safely used in medical surgeries for decades. Aptos thread lifting works by inserting these threads into the subdermal layer of the skin using fine needles. Once placed, they act as a scaffold, supporting the tissues and keeping them in a lifted position. Over time, the threads stimulate collagen production, which helps to improve skin elasticity and firmness.
One of the key advantages of Aptos Threads is the minimal downtime associated with the procedure. Unlike traditional facelifts that require extensive recovery, patients can often return to their normal activities shortly after undergoing an Aptos treatment. The results are immediately visible and can last between 1 to 2 years, depending on the individual’s skin condition and lifestyle.
The procedure is highly versatile, suitable for lifting various parts of the face including the eyebrows, cheeks, jowls, and neck. It can also be used to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, making it a comprehensive anti-aging solution.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How does the Aptos Thread procedure work?
The procedure involves inserting thin threads under the skin with a needle. These threads have small, barb-like features that latch onto the skin and pull it tight. As the threads are absorbed by the body over time, they stimulate collagen production, which helps to naturally lift and firm the skin even as the threads dissolve.
Is the Aptos Thread procedure painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. Local anesthesia is typically applied to the treatment area to minimize pain. Some patients might feel a slight tugging or pulling sensation as the threads are adjusted.
What is the recovery time for Aptos Threads?
Recovery time is relatively short compared to surgical facelifts. Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days. However, there may be some mild swelling, bruising, or redness immediately following the procedure, which typically subsides within a week.
How long do the results from Aptos Threads last?
The lifting effect is immediate, and the results can last anywhere from 1 to 2 years, depending on factors like age, skin type, and lifestyle. The collagen production stimulated by the threads helps to maintain the skin’s elasticity and firmness for an extended period.
