Aptos Thread Lift

Non-surgical face lift using absorbable PDO threads.

A PDO (polydioxanone) thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that lifts and tightens sagging skin using absorbable medical-grade threads inserted beneath the skin. The threads create an immediate mechanical lift, and as they dissolve over 6–9 months, they stimulate new collagen production along their path — providing ongoing improvement even after the threads are gone. Different thread types serve different purposes: smooth threads stimulate collagen in areas like the neck and under-eyes, barbed/cog threads provide structural lifting of the mid-face, jowls, and brows, and twisted threads add volume to sunken areas. The procedure takes 30–60 minutes under local anesthesia.
