Thread lift COG / First Lift Barb 4D

Modern face and neck lift - lifting threads with barbs

Barb 4D threads are an innovative method of lifting and rejuvenating the skin of the face and neck, allowing for an immediate tissue lifting effect without the need for a surgical procedure. The treatment involves inserting special threads equipped with microscopic barbs under the skin, which hook into the tissues and lift them, providing 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 additionally stimulate collagen production, thanks to which the skin gradually regains its firmness and elasticity, and the lifting effect persists for many months.

Why 4D threads?

The term “4D” refers to the special structure of Barb threads – the barbs are distributed in four directions (around the entire circumference of the thread), which enables:

• even lifting of tissues in multiple planes,
• stronger and more stable anchoring of the thread in the skin,
• precise modeling of facial contours,
• increased collagen stimulation along the entire thread.

It is this “four-dimensionality” that makes Barb 4D threads exceptionally effective in lifting and contouring the face.

How do Barb 4D threads work?

During the procedure, the doctor inserts the threads under the skin using a thin cannula. The barbs on the surface of the threads hook into the tissues and gently lift them, which gives 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 term.

The treatment usually lasts 30–60 minutes, is performed under local anesthesia, and does not require hospitalization. Most patients return to their daily activities the very next day.

When is it worth using Barb 4D threads?

The treatment using Barb 4D threads is recommended for people who:

• notice a loss of firmness in the skin of the face and neck,
• have sagging cheeks, chin, or jawline (“jowls”),
• want to reduce mimic wrinkles and nasolabial folds,
• are looking for a non-invasive alternative to a surgical facelift,
• expect a quick result with a minimal recovery period.

The treatment will work well both for people aged 30+ who want to delay signs of aging, as well as for mature patients wishing to restore a younger contour to their face.

Effects of the treatment using Barb 4D threads:

• Visible lifting of the facial oval – contour improvement and reduction of “jowls”
• Modeling of the jawline – a sharper, more defined profile of the lower part of the face
• Lifting sagging cheeks – restoring a youthful appearance and volume
• Reduction of nasolabial folds and marionette lines – smoothing of mimic wrinkles
• Firming the neck skin – improving tension and reducing laxity in this challenging area
• Strengthening the skin structure through collagen stimulation – better density, resilience, and elasticity
• Natural rejuvenation effect without artificial alteration of facial features

Frequency of treatments

• The lifting effect after using Barb 4D threads lasts on average from 12 to 24 months, depending on the age, skin condition, and lifestyle of the patient.
• The treatment can be repeated every 1.5–2 years to maintain the results, or combined with other rejuvenating procedures, e.g., mesotherapy or skin biostimulation.

The treatment with Barb 4D threads is an excellent solution for people who expect a visible lifting effect without having to undergo surgery. It is a fast, safe, and effective method to restore a younger appearance to the face, improve skin tension, and model contours. Thanks to the innovative 4D technology, the results are natural, harmonious, and long-lasting.

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.

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.

Advanced tissue lifting with an immediate skin lifting and remodeling effect

COG 8D (BARB 8D) threads are modern lifting threads equipped with multi-directionally arranged barbs (hooked micro-hooks), which enable mechanical lifting of sagging tissues and simultaneous intensive skin biostymulation. The treatment is an effective method of improving the facial oval, reducing „jowls”, lifting cheeks and restoring younger facial proportions without the need for surgical intervention.

The lifting effect is visible immediately after the treatment, while in the following months, a gradual tissue remodeling associated with the production of new collagen takes place. Thanks to this, the skin becomes tighter, firmer and more resistant to aging processes.

How do COG 8D / BARB 8D threads work?

The effectiveness of the treatment results from the combination of an immediate mechanical lifting and long-term skin regeneration.

• specially designed micro-hooks anchor themselves in the tissues, enabling them to be lifted and repositioned to a more youthful position
• there is an improvement in the tension of the supporting facial ligaments and strengthening of the tissue scaffolding
• implanted threads induce controlled stimulation of fibroblasts responsible for the production of collagen and elastin
• new supporting fibers are formed around the threads, increasing skin density
• microcirculation and tissue nourishment improve
• there is a gradual improvement in skin firmness and quality even after the threads are completely dissolved

The mechanism of action ensures that the treatment is not limited only to the lifting effect, but actively supports the process of skin rejuvenation and remodeling for many months.

Who is the treatment recommended for?

COG 8D threads are designed for people who notice progressive tissue sagging and loss of clear facial contours.

→ sagging cheeks

→ loss of facial oval

→ so-called jowls

→ sagging jawline

→ laxity of facial and neck skin

→ deepening nasolabial folds

→ drooping corners of the mouth

→ loss of tension in the chin area

→ early and moderate signs of aging

→ prevention of further tissue sagging

The best results are achieved in patients with moderate skin laxity who expect a distinct lift without surgery.

Areas of application

The treatment can be performed in various areas requiring lifting and tension improvement.

• facial oval – contour improvement and tissue sagging reduction
• cheeks – restoring volume and the effect of natural lifting
• jawline – sharpening facial contours
• chin – tension improvement and sagging reduction
• szyja – increasing firmness and skin density
• brow area – subtle lifting of the outer parts of the brow arches

Each treatment plan is individually tailored to the facial anatomy and the stage of aging processes.

Treatment effects

The results are visible already after the treatment, and then gradually intensify along with tissue remodeling.

• lifting of sagging cheeks – the face regains more youthful proportions and a clearer contour
• improvement of the facial oval – reduction of the „jowls” effect and sagging of the lower face
• sharpening of the jawline – the face looks slimmer and more harmonious
• smoothing of nasolabial folds – thanks to tissue lifting, their visibility is reduced
• improvement of skin tension – the skin becomes more compact and elastic
• skin density improvement – thanks to the production of new collagen, its structure improves
• rejuvenation of facial features – without the effect of artificial filling
• long-lasting improvement of skin quality – persisting also after the threads dissolve
• natural lifting effect – without altering individual facial features

The final effect is the result of both mechanical tissue lifting and biological skin remodeling occurring over the following months.

Frequency of treatments

The treatment is usually performed once.

→ usually, one treatment is sufficient

→ full tissue remodeling develops over about 3–6 months

→ the effect lasts on average from 12 to 24 months, depending on age, skin quality, and lifestyle

→ after the effect fades, it is possible to perform another lifting procedure

In many cases, the therapy is combined with tissue biostimulators, hyaluronic acid, or treatments that stimulate collagen production, allowing for even more comprehensive rejuvenation.

Why is it worth choosing the treatment at Ambasada Urody Clinic & Spa?

Thread lifting requires excellent knowledge of facial anatomy, clinical experience, and individual planning of lifting vectors. It is the precision of execution that determines the naturalness and durability of the effects.

→ treatments performed by experienced aesthetic medicine doctors

→ individual selection of the number and placement of threads

→ precise analysis of facial proportions and the aging process

→ possibility of combining with modern regenerative and biostimulating therapies

→ natural results without an overdone effect

→ highest standards of safety and patient comfort

COG 8D / BARB 8D threads are one of the most effective methods of non-surgical lifting, allowing to regain a clear facial oval, younger proportions and firmer skin while maintaining a natural appearance.

Advanced bio-resorbable thread lift – long-lasting tissue support and multi-level skin remodeling

Lift Strong P(LA/CL) barbed threads represent the newest generation of bio-resorbable lifting threads designed to effectively lift sagging facial tissues and provide long-lasting stabilization. Combining high mechanical strength with advanced biological properties, they allow for a distinct yet natural rejuvenation effect without the need for surgical facelifts.

The threads are made of a copolymer of L-polylactic acid and ε-caprolactone (P(LA/CL)), a material developed specifically for modern lifting procedures. It is characterized by high durability, elasticity, and a slower biodegradation process compared to classic PDO threads. As a result, the tissues remain supported for a longer time, and their regeneration process proceeds gradually and harmoniously.

Specially designed multidirectional barbs ensure stable anchoring of the thread in the tissues and allow for their controlled repositioning according to natural lifting vectors. The procedure does not involve adding volume, but rather restoring the proper position of the patient's own tissues, allowing the face to retain its natural proportions and individual character.

This is a solution created for individuals expecting the highest level of technology, durable tissue support, and a comprehensive lifting and regenerative action.

How do Lift Strong P(LA/CL) barbed threads work?

The effect of the procedure unfolds in multiple stages. The initial improvement is visible immediately after thread implantation, while further tissue remodeling develops gradually over the following weeks and months.

• Mechanical tissue lifting – the specialist inserts the threads into precisely designated layers of subcutaneous tissue and then repositions the sagging structures according to natural lifting vectors.
• Anchoring with barbs – appropriately placed barbs increase the contact surface of the thread with the tissue and help hold it in the new position.
• Creating an internal scaffold – the threads form support for soft tissues, helping to improve the contour of the cheeks, jawline, chin area, or neck.
• Controlled regenerative response – the presence of the bio-resorbable material initiates a physiological repair reaction in the surrounding tissues.
• Fibroblast stimulation – skin cells responsible for its structure are stimulated into activity, which promotes the formation of new supporting fibers.
• Extracellular matrix remodeling – a delicate tissue structure gradually forms around the thread, supporting the retention and stabilization of the achieved effect.
• Gradual biodegradation of the material – the P(LA/CL) copolymer undergoes controlled degradation into compounds metabolized by the body, while the induced tissue remodeling can sustain the result in the longer term as well.

The combination of mechanical and biological action allows the treatment to affect both the position of the tissues and their quality. The effect develops gradually, ensuring the face looks natural without the impression of a sudden change in proportions.

Who is the Lift Strong P(LA/CL) treatment recommended for?

Strong P(LA/CL) lifting threads are primarily designed for individuals with mild to moderate tissue sagging who still retain adequate skin quality and regenerative potential. The best results are achieved after a thorough evaluation of facial anatomy, degree of laxity, and the direction of displacement of individual structures.

The treatment may be recommended in case of:

→ loss of a defined facial oval

→ sagging of cheeks and the mid-face

→ flattening or sagging of the zygomatic area

→ formation of "jowls" and disruption of the jawline

→ laxity of the lower face

→ deepening of nasolabial folds due to tissue sagging

→ drooping corners of the mouth and marionette line formation

→ loss of proper proportions between the cheeks, jawline, and chin

→ skin laxity in the chin and neck area

→ early or moderate signs of gravitational facial aging

→ need for facial contour improvement without a surgical facelift

→ asymmetry resulting from uneven distribution of soft tissues

The procedure works particularly well for patients seeking a lifting effect and refined facial contours. In cases of significant laxity, excessive skin redundancy, or advanced tissue sagging, a specialist may suggest combination therapy or a surgical consultation.

Application areas of Lift Strong P(LA/CL) threads

The type of threads, their quantity, and the direction of implantation are selected individually according to the patient's anatomy and needs. A single procedure can cover a single area or a comprehensive correction of multiple facial zones.

The most commonly treated areas are:

→ mid-face

→ cheeks

→ cheekbone (zygomatic) area

→ lower face

→ jawline

→ "jowls"

→ nasolabial folds area

→ marionette lines area

→ chin

→ submandibular area

→ neck

In selected cases, threads can also be used for subtle correction of eyebrow positioning or other areas requiring localized lifting. Each such procedure requires particularly precise qualification and knowledge of functional facial anatomy.

The type of threads, their number, and distribution are individually selected by the doctor during the consultation in each case. The final treatment plan depends on facial anatomy, the degree of tissue laxity, and the expected lifting effect.

Effects of the Lift Strong P(LA/CL) treatment

The result of the therapy is multidimensional. Immediately after the procedure, the mechanical lifting effect dominates, while in the following weeks, changes related to tissue stabilization and regenerative processes appear.

• Distinct lifting of sagging tissues – cheeks, lower face, or submandibular area regain a more organized and favorable position.
• Restoration of a defined facial oval – the jawline contour becomes more distinct, and the transition between the face and neck may look slimmer.
• Reduced visibility of "jowls" – tissue repositioning improves facial contour and restores a more youthful profile.
• Improved cheek projection – lifting the patient's own tissues helps recreate natural proportions of the mid-face without excessive volume addition.
• Shallowing of nasolabial folds – lifting the mid-face reduces the burden on lower structures.
• Softening of marionette lines – improved tissue support around the mouth gives the lower face a softer and more rested appearance.
• Significant improvement in skin tension – remodeling of supporting fibers increases skin firmness and elasticity.
• Improvement of skin density and quality – activation of natural regenerative processes leads to better tissue structure and cohesion.
• Natural rejuvenation of facial features – the treatment restores a more favorable position of tissues while preserving the patient's individual facial features.
• Gradual maturation of the result – after initial swelling subsides, the effect becomes more harmonious, and skin remodeling develops over subsequent months.

• Long-lasting tissue support – slower biodegradation of the material allows for longer retention of the mechanical effect and supports gradual stabilization of achieved results.

• Natural rejuvenation effect – the face regains a fresh, rested look without altering individual features.

The final result depends on biological age, degree of laxity, skin thickness, subcutaneous tissue quality, facial mimicry, biological age, lifestyle, and the individual rate of regenerative processes. Lifting threads provide a particularly attractive effect in patients qualified at an appropriately early stage of gravitational facial aging.

How is the procedure performed?

The procedure is preceded by a medical consultation including an assessment of facial anatomy, degree of laxity, skin quality, and proportions of individual areas. The doctor determines individual lifting vectors and selects the number and type of threads according to the patient's actual needs.

The procedure steps include:

→ photographic documentation and facial symmetry assessment

→ planning thread pathways and the direction of tissue lifting

→ thorough cleansing and disinfection of the treatment area

→ application of appropriately selected local anesthesia

→ thread insertion using a cannula or guide needle

→ controlled repositioning and stabilization of tissues

→ evaluation of symmetry and final thread tension

→ securing entry points

The duration of the procedure depends on the number of implanted threads and the extent of the treated area. After the treatment, the patient receives detailed post-care instructions supporting proper integration of threads with the tissues.

Post-treatment sensations and recovery period

Immediately after implantation, moderate swelling, tenderness, a feeling of tightness, slight bruising, or temporary asymmetry related to tissue reaction may occur. Small entry points may be visible where the threads were inserted, which gradually fade.

In the initial period following the treatment, protecting the lifted area from excessive pressure and intense facial expressions is particularly important. Tissues need time to stabilize in their new position and integrate properly with the thread surface.

For the period specified by the doctor, it is recommended to:

→ sleep on your back with your head slightly elevated

→ avoid opening your mouth wide and chewing vigorously

→ practice gentle skin hygiene

→ refrain from facial massages and applying pressure to the treatment area

→ temporarily limit intense physical exertion

→ postpone cosmetological, dental, and physiotherapeutic procedures in the facial area

→ protect the skin from high temperatures and intense sunlight exposure

→ follow pharmacological and skincare recommendations provided by the doctor

The rate of recovery is individual. Regular post-treatment follow-up allows for assessing healing, symmetry, and tissue stabilization.

Treatment frequency and therapy plan

Barbed lifting threads are most commonly performed as a single, comprehensively planned treatment. The number of implanted threads depends on the treatment area, degree of tissue sagging, tissue mass, and expected direction of correction.

The treatment plan may include:

→ single thread implantation in a selected area

→ simultaneous treatment of cheeks and lower face

→ staged modeling of several areas at specified intervals

→ supplementary treatment following evaluation of tissue stabilization

→ therapies supporting skin quality prior to implantation or after the healing period

The timing of any repeat procedure is determined by the doctor based on the longevity of the result, aging process, and current skin condition. The quality of qualification and proper vector planning remain paramount, rather than using the maximum number of threads.

Qualification and contraindications

The safety of the treatment relies on medical consultation, health status analysis, and informed choice of method. The doctor also assesses skin thickness, subcutaneous tissue volume, muscle tone, asymmetry, and previous procedures performed in the area.

Qualification excludes or temporarily postpones the procedure in cases such as:

→ pregnancy and breastfeeding

→ active skin or systemic infections

→ inflammation in the planned treatment area

→ uncontrolled chronic diseases

→ blood clotting disorders

→ use of anticoagulant medications, if deemed a significant risk factor by the doctor

→ active autoimmune diseases

→ cancer during active treatment

→ tendency toward abnormal scarring

→ hypersensitivity to the components of the material used

→ significant skin excess requiring surgical correction

→ unrealistic expectations regarding the extent of possible improvement

Each qualification is individual. Information regarding taken medications, chronic illnesses, prior implants, fillers, and past facial procedures should be provided to the doctor during consultation.

Why choose Lift Strong P(LA/CL) threads?

Threads made of poly-L-lactic acid and caprolactone copolymer are a solution for patients expecting more than superficial skin tightening. The procedure enables mechanical tissue lifting and its gradual biological remodeling.

Key benefits of the therapy:

→ strong anchoring and controlled tissue repositioning

→ improvement of facial oval without a surgical facelift

→ combination of immediate effect with gradual regeneration process

→ facial contouring without excessive volume increase

→ possibility of individually customizing lifting vectors

→ bio-resorbable material with properties tailored for soft tissue placement

→ natural change resulting from lifting the patient's own tissues

→ option to include the treatment in a comprehensive anti-aging therapy plan

Barbed lifting threads allow targeting one of the primary mechanisms of facial aging: the gradual descent of tissues due to structural changes and gravity. Consequently, the therapy can achieve a more pronounced contour improvement than treatments focused solely on the skin's surface.

Effective non-surgical face lift – immediate tissue lifting and facial contour improvement

Lift Strong PDO barbed threads are a modern method of minimally invasive face lifting that allows for the effective elevation of sagging tissues, improvement of facial contour, and restoration of a younger, more harmonious appearance without the need for surgical intervention. Thanks to a special design with multidirectional barbs, the threads provide strong anchoring in tissues, enabling their controlled lifting in line with natural lifting vectors.

The threads are made of polydioxanone (PDO) – a bioresorbable material that has been used in surgery for many years. In addition to the immediate mechanical tissue lifting effect, the procedure stimulates the skin's natural regenerative processes, improving its firmness, tension, and quality. As a result, the face regains a more defined contour, and the lifting effect continues to develop in the weeks following the treatment.

This solution is dedicated to individuals who notice the first or moderate signs of gravitational aging and expect visible improvement without a long recovery period.

How do Lift Strong PDO barbed threads work?

The effectiveness of the treatment results from combining an immediate mechanical effect with biological stimulation of regenerative processes occurring within the skin.

• Mechanical tissue lifting – barbs located on the surface of the thread stably anchor into the subcutaneous tissue, allowing for its controlled elevation and repositioning.
• Restoration of proper tissue position – the doctor recreates natural facial proportions by lifting tissues that have shifted over time under the influence of gravity.
• Immediate improvement of facial contour – the lifting effect is visible directly after the treatment, although its final appearance is evaluated after swelling subsides.
• Fibroblast stimulation – the presence of threads activates cells responsible for the production of new collagen and the remodeling of the extracellular matrix.
• Improvement of skin tension and density – during the gradual resorption of the threads, the skin becomes firmer, tighter, and better supported.
• Natural biodegradation of the material – PDO threads gradually dissolve in the body, leaving behind a remodeled tissue structure.

The combination of lifting and regenerative actions ensures that the treatment improves not only the facial contour, but also the quality of the skin. The results develop gradually and maintain a natural character.

Who is the Lift Strong PDO treatment recommended for?

Lift Strong PDO threads work best for individuals with mild to moderate tissue sagging who want to improve their facial contour without surgery.

The procedure is recommended for:

→ loss of a defined facial contour

→ appearance of so-called „jowls”

→ sagging cheeks

→ deepening nasolabial folds resulting from tissue sagging

→ marionette lines

→ skin laxity in the lower face

→ loss of jawline definition

→ mild skin laxity in the chin area

→ sagging of the outer eyebrow

→ first signs of gravitational aging

→ the need to improve facial contour without increasing its volume

The best results are achieved in patients with preserved skin elasticity and a moderate degree of tissue sagging.

Application areas of Lift Strong PDO threads

The number of threads and the method of their implantation are always selected individually during a consultation.

We most frequently perform lifting of the:

→ eyebrows

→ cheeks

→ facial contour

→ jawline

→ lower face

→ chin area

→ neck (in selected cases)

The type of threads, their quantity, and placement are always selected individually by the doctor during the consultation. The final treatment plan depends on facial anatomy, the degree of tissue laxity, and the expected lifting effect.

Effects of the Lift Strong PDO treatment

The lifting effect is visible directly after the procedure, while full tissue remodeling develops over the following weeks.

• Lifting of sagging cheeks – the face regains younger proportions and a more harmonious appearance.
• More defined facial contour – the jawline becomes better defined, and the lower face looks slimmer.
• Reduction of „jowls” – improved tissue positioning reduces their accumulation in the lower third of the face.
• Optical softening of nasolabial folds and marionette lines – lifting the cheeks reduces the burden on the lower facial areas.
• Improvement of skin tension – the skin becomes firmer and tighter.
• Better skin quality – stimulation of natural regenerative processes improves its structure.
• Natural rejuvenation effect – the face looks fresh and younger, without altering individual features.
• Long-lasting result – the effect lasts for many months, and its durability depends on age, skin quality, lifestyle, and individual bodily predispositions.

Frequency of treatments

The treatment is usually performed as a single procedure. The number of threads is selected individually based on the degree of tissue sagging, facial anatomy, and the expected effect.

If necessary, the procedure can be supplemented after several months or combined with other anti-aging therapies, such as tissue biostimulators, microneedle radiofrequency, or treatments that improve skin quality.
