Barb threads and COG threads are the best alternative to traditional surgical lifting due to their minimal invasiveness, lack of side effects, and long-lasting aesthetic effects. The wide range of thread sizes and their versatility, as well as their variety of applications, provide a basis to believe that the coming years will be dominated by procedures carried out using lifting threads.

Barb threads and COG threads are exceptional PDO threads with a specially developed system of microscopic hooks. Previously, the hooks were only on one side of the thread, but now they are densely distributed around the thread in two directions, in four dimensions, hence the name of the threads. Additionally, the thread is much thicker than traditional PDO thread, which maximizes the lifting effect. The lengths of the threads vary and are selected according to the needs of each patient.

The procedure is quick, safe, and easy to perform. It does not require cutting the skin, as the threads are inserted into the subcutaneous tissue using a thin needle-cannula or cannula with a trocar. Before the procedure, the area is numbed with an anesthetic cream, which completely eliminates pain. After implanting the hooks under the skin, they open up, lifting sagging tissues and providing a strong lifting effect. The entire procedure takes about an hour, and the only traces it leaves are possible slight bruising, easily concealed with makeup. The procedure can be performed at any time of year, including summer, and for optimal results, it is recommended to combine the thread lifting implantation with other rejuvenation methods (e.g., Botox, fillers, Radiesse).

THREAD LIFTING - HOW IT WORKS

The technique is fast, safe and easy to perform. It does not require skin incision as threads are injected via cannula-needle or cannula with the trocar into the subcutaneous tissue. Before the procedure, the area is lubricated with anesthetic cream, which completely eliminates the pain. Once implanted under the skin, hooks are opening, lifting the drooping tissues and thus providing a strong lifting effect. The entire procedure takes about an hour, and the only signs it leaves are slight bruises, easy to cover under makeup.

WHEN TO USE THREAD LIFT BARB 4D

First Thread Lift Barb 4D is recommended for patients over the age of 30. The indications for procedure are: loss of firmness and changes in the face features. It is perfect for lifting the chin, eyebrows, changing the contour line with of the cheeks and jaw. Patients who want to improve the appearance of other parts of the body are recommended to use the traditional PDO threads.

EFFECTS OF FIRST LIFT BARB 4D

Shortly after the treatment you can notice smoothing out of wrinkles and improvement in facial contours, resulting from the mechanical action of injected thread. Threads injected under the skin work as tension muscles, holding subcutaneous tissue in place. In the next stage biomedical properties of polydioxanone are being used. After about 14 days after surgery, the process of neocolagenesis starts, which stimulate the production of new collagen - the protein responsible for the tone and firmness of the skin. In addition, stimulation of fibroblasts results in stimulating the synthesis of elastin - the protein responsible for the firmness and elasticity of the skin, making the skin gaining new strong base. In vivo studies also found that the effect of polydioxanone causes the synthesis of hyaluronic acid. Thanks to the synergy achieved during the procedure, aesthetic effects are spectacular and long lasting. They are lasting about 24 months - after that threads are dissolved in the tissue. With neocolagenesis processes and stimulating the synthesis of elastin and hyaluronic acid, after the dissolution of the thread your skin does not fall down and does not return to its previous state. Of course, you cannot stop the aging process, but it is slower, so to maintain the full effect, it is recommended to repeat the procedure every 2 years.

Barb 4D thread

Modern face and neck lift without scalpels

Nici Barb 4D is an innovative method of lifting and rejuvenating the skin of the face and neck, allowing for an immediate lifting effect without the need for surgical intervention. The procedure involves introducing special threads equipped with microscopic hooks under the skin, which anchor to the tissues and lift them, giving a tightening and rejuvenating effect.

The material from which the threads are made (polydioxanone - PDO) is completely absorbable and safe for the body. The threads also stimulate collagen production, allowing the skin to gradually regain firmness and elasticity, with the lifting effect lasting for many months.

Why "4D"?

The term "4D" refers to the special structure of Barb threads - the hooks are distributed in four directions (around the entire circumference of the thread), allowing for:

  • uniform lifting of tissues in multiple planes,
  • stronger and more stable anchoring of threads in the skin,
  • precise contouring of the face,
  • increased collagen stimulation along the entire thread.

This "four-dimensionality" is what makes Barb 4D threads exceptionally effective in lifting and contouring the face.

How does the procedure work?

During the procedure, the doctor introduces threads under the skin using a thin cannula. The hooks on the thread's surface anchor to the tissues and gently lift them, providing an immediate lifting effect. Additionally, the presence of the threads stimulates the skin to produce new collagen, improving its density, firmness, and elasticity in the long run.

The procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes, is performed under local anesthesia, and does not require hospitalization. Most patients can resume their daily activities the next day.

When is it worthwhile to use Barb 4D threads?

The procedure using Barb 4D threads is recommended for individuals who:

  • notice a loss of skin firmness in the face and neck,
  • have sagging cheeks, chin, or jawline ("jowls"),
  • wish to reduce fine lines and nasolabial folds,
  • are seeking a non-invasive alternative to surgical lifting,
  • expect a quick effect with minimal recovery time.

The procedure is suitable for individuals aged 30+ looking to delay signs of aging, as well as mature patients wishing to restore a younger contour to their face.

Effects of the Barb 4D procedure:

  • Significant lifting of the face oval - improved contour and reduction of "jowls"
  • Shaping of the jawline - sharper, more defined profile of the lower face
  • Lifting of sagging cheeks - restoration of youthful appearance and volume
  • Reduction of nasolabial folds and marionette lines - smoothing of fine lines
  • Firming of the neck skin - improved tension and reduction of sagging in this challenging area
  • Strengthening the skin structure by collagen stimulation - better density, elasticity, and firmness
  • Natural rejuvenation effect without artificial facial changes

Frequency of procedures

  • The lifting effect after using Barb 4D threads lasts an average of 12 to 24 months, depending on the patient's age, skin condition, and lifestyle.
  • The procedure can be repeated every 1.5-2 years to maintain the results or combined with other rejuvenating procedures such as mesotherapy or skin biostimulation.

The Barb 4D thread procedure is an excellent solution for individuals seeking a clear lifting effect without undergoing surgery. It is a quick, safe, and effective method for restoring a younger appearance to the face, improving skin tension, and contouring. Thanks to the innovative 4D technology, the results are natural, harmonious, and long-lasting.

Thread Bar 6D

Maximum lifting strength without a scalpel

Barb 6D Threads are the latest generation of lifting threads with barbs, designed for patients requiring a strong, precise, and long-lasting skin lifting effect. Made from absorbable and safe material (PDO), these threads are inserted under the skin where they act as a scaffold, supporting and lifting sagging tissues.

It is an ideal alternative to surgical lifting – without incisions, scars, and long recovery time. The procedure provides spectacular rejuvenation and sharpening of facial contours while stimulating the skin's natural regenerative processes.

Barb 6D Threads – the next level of lifting

Barb 6D is an enhanced version of Barb 4D threads. Their main feature is a denser and more multidirectional distribution of barbs - they are placed around the entire circumference of the thread in six planes, allowing to achieve:

  • even stronger and more stable anchoring in tissues,
  • more precise lifting of the skin in multiple directions simultaneously,
  • prolonged maintenance of treatment effects,
  • greater effectiveness for more advanced signs of aging.

It is this multidimensional 6D construction that provides a lifting effect comparable to surgery but without a scalpel.

How does the procedure work?

During the procedure, the doctor inserts Barb 6D threads under the skin using a thin cannula, following the natural tension lines of the skin. The barbs anchor in the tissues, lifting and stabilizing them in a new position.

Additionally, the threads stimulate the process of neocollagenesis - the body starts producing more collagen and elastin, improving the skin quality in the weeks following the procedure. Once the threads are absorbed, the lifted tissues are maintained due to the reinforced skin structure.

When to use Barb 6D Threads?

Barb 6D Threads are recommended for individuals who:

  • experience advanced skin laxity on the face, neck, or chin,
  • have prominent "jowls," sagging cheeks, or a blurred jawline,
  • want to achieve maximum lifting effect without surgery,
  • need long-lasting yet natural rejuvenation,
  • do not qualify for or do not want to undergo surgical lifting.

Effects of the procedure

  • Visible lifting of the face oval and improvement of contours – Barb 6D Threads effectively restore a distinct facial shape, lifting sagging tissues and tightening the skin. This is particularly important for a blurred jawline or loss of a youthful oval shape.
  • Reduction of "jowls" and double chin – Due to strong anchoring in the tissues, 6D threads allow for effective lifting of the lower face areas, reducing sagging "jowls" and improving the jawline and chin.
  • Modeling of cheeks and jawline – The procedure enables precise shaping of facial features – cheeks regain volume and elasticity, and the jawline becomes better defined and more pronounced.
  • Smoothing of wrinkles and expression lines – Skin lifting and tension result in smoothing out expression lines, especially in the nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and cheek creases.
  • Improvement of skin tension and elasticity on the face and neck – Barb 6D Threads stimulate the skin for regeneration, leading to better tension and elasticity on both the face and the challenging neck area.
  • Stimulation of collagen and elastin – biorevitalization effect – Apart from mechanical lifting, the threads initiate regenerative processes, increasing collagen and elastin production, resulting in skin structure improvement and long-term rejuvenation.
  • "Scaffolding" effect for tissues – Multidirectional barbs create stable anchoring, acting as a biological scaffold, maintaining lifted tissues and preventing further skin sagging.
  • Natural rejuvenation effect without changing facial features – The face looks younger and fresher post-procedure, without an artificial or exaggerated look. The lifting effect is harmonious and tailored to individual anatomy.
  • Short recovery time and quick return to activities – Despite the intense lifting effect, the procedure is minimally invasive and does not require a long healing period – most patients return to their daily activities within a few days.

Frequency of treatments

  • The effects of Barb 6D Threads typically last from 18 to up to 30 months, depending on individual skin characteristics, age, and the patient's lifestyle.
  • The procedure can be repeated after this time or earlier as part of skin aging prevention.

Barb 6D Threads are currently the strongest and most advanced lifting thread system available in aesthetic medicine. They allow for spectacular effects without the use of a scalpel – lifting, shaping, and rejuvenating the face in a natural yet noticeable way. An ideal solution for individuals seeking maximum effect with minimal intervention.

COG threads 4D

Strong Lifting and Skin Regeneration

COG threads are advanced barbed threads that serve a dual function: mechanical lifting and biological skin regeneration. Due to their thickness, length, and special barbs, these threads create a specific "scaffolding" under the skin that lifts sagging tissues and restores their proper tension.

The procedure using COG threads is an effective alternative to surgical lifting - without scalpels, scars, and long recovery. The effects are clear and long-lasting, giving the face a younger, more harmonious appearance.

How Does the Procedure Work?

COG threads are inserted under the skin following the natural tension lines of the skin. The barbs on their surface anchor in the tissues, allowing for their immediate lifting and tightening.

Additionally, the threads act as tissue stimulators - they stimulate the process of neocollagenesis, which is the production of new collagen and elastin. These proteins are responsible for the firmness and elasticity of the skin, and their increased synthesis strengthens the lifting effect and improves skin quality over time.

Who is the COG Thread Procedure For?

The procedure using COG threads is recommended for individuals:

  • With visible signs of aging: sagging cheeks, chin, "marionette lines"
  • With skin laxity on the face, neck, or other body areas
  • Who require a stronger lift than with traditional PDO threads
  • Seeking a procedure with a "scaffolding" effect and skin regeneration
  • Who value a long-lasting but natural effect

Procedure Effects

  • Strong lifting and skin tightening - Thanks to the barbs and the appropriate length and thickness of the threads, we achieve a mechanical lifting effect - the skin is lifted, tightened, and more elastic, especially in areas affected by tissue sagging.
  • Improvement of facial contours - COG threads effectively sculpt the jawline, reduce "marionette lines," and restore a youthful facial shape that often becomes blurred with age.
  • Reduction of sagging chin - The procedure lifts and tightens the lower parts of the face, eliminating the "double chin" effect and improving the appearance of the neck.
  • Smoothing wrinkles and lines - COG thread skin lifting leads to a reduction in mimic wrinkles, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines - the face looks fresher and more rested.
  • Density and firmness of the skin - Threads stimulate intense collagen and elastin production, which in the long run improves skin structure, making it denser, firmer, and more elastic.
  • "Scaffolding" effect for the skin - Due to the barbed structure of the threads, tissues are physically supported - this provides a kind of skeleton effect that keeps the skin in the right position, counteracting further sagging.
  • Natural and harmonious appearance - The procedure does not alter facial features - it gives a rejuvenating effect without exaggeration, making the patient look rested and fresher, not "done."
  • Long-lasting effect - up to 2 years - Due to the dual action: mechanical lifting and biological regeneration, the effects are long-lasting and can last up to 24 months.

Frequency of Procedures

  • The effects of the COG thread procedure typically last 12-24 months, depending on the patient's age, skin condition, and lifestyle.
  • The procedure can be repeated after this time or earlier if there is an aesthetic need.

COG threads are an excellent choice for individuals who need a clear but natural lifting effect - without surgery and long recovery. Due to their unique barbed structure, the threads not only lift the skin but also stimulate its regeneration from within. The result is visible rejuvenation, improved facial contours, and increased skin firmness.
