Face lifting treatment

Restore a youthful lift and enhance natural contours

APTOS thread lifting is a minimally invasive procedure that uses special threads to lift sagging tissue and tighten loose skin. The threads are absorbable and dissolve naturally. The skin starts to produce more collagen and elastin which gives a longer lasting result. The threads are inserted without incision in the skin.
