- Cold compresses before procedure
- Local anaesthetic at entry points
- Aptos HA-infused absorbable thread insertion and repositioning
The Aptos thread lift is a minimally invasive non-surgical facial lifting procedure that uses absorbable threads infused with hyaluronic acid to mechanically lift and simultaneously hydrate sagging facial tissue. At AV Aesthetics, MUDr. Anežka Vochtová inserts the Aptos threads through tiny entry points under local anaesthesia, repositioning the SMAS layer and deeper tissue upward without any incision. The threads' barb structure grips the tissue firmly on insertion, providing an immediate, visible lift. Over the following months, the threads are slowly absorbed by the body while stimulating collagen production along their path, maintaining and extending the lifting effect. Results are visible immediately and typically last 1.5–2 years.
About this treatment
Thread lifting predates the modern injectable era as a minimally invasive alternative to surgical face lifting, but the introduction of absorbable, biocompatible thread materials has made the technique significantly safer and more predictable than the early non-absorbable thread procedures. Aptos threads are made from a biodegradable copolymer combined with hyaluronic acid — the latter providing hydration and volumising properties in addition to the…
The procedure at AV Aesthetics takes approximately 30–40 minutes for the thread insertion phase, with the overall clinic visit around 1 hour. Patients are provided with disposable clothing and cold compresses before the procedure begins. Local anaesthesia is administered at each entry point, after which MUDr. Vochtová introduces the Aptos threads using a fine cannula or needle. The threads are positioned beneath the skin in the target tissue layer —…
The immediate result is visible: a lift of the jowl area, midface, brow, or neck depending on the thread placement. Over the following weeks to months, the body mounts a healing response around each thread, laying down collagen along the thread's path. As the threads gradually absorb (over 12–18 months), this collagen scaffold continues to support the repositioned tissue.
