Thread Lift in České Budějovice

ILK offers thread lifting with two distinct systems: absorbable Mezonit threads for localised lifting and collagen stimulation, and Aptos Nite 3D barbed threads for a more comprehensive mini-facelift effect. Mezonit threads are inserted via thin needles and stimulate a gradual collagen envelope around each thread as they dissolve over 6–8 months, maintaining lift. Aptos Nite threads have counter-directional hooks cut into their surface that anchor tissue mechanically, providing stronger and more sustained lifting for ptotic facial tissue. Both procedures take approximately 30 minutes under local anaesthetic and produce an immediate visible improvement with zero required recovery time.

Thread lifting at Poliklinika Sever's Eye Care & Aesthetics Centre offers a non-surgical facial lifting option using dissolvable sutures inserted under the skin to mechanically reposition sagging tissue and stimulate collagen production. MUDr. Kim Štěpánková FEBO DiS. performs three thread protocols: 3D thread lifting for a multi-vector lift of the mid-face and jowl area (from 12,000 Kč), APTOS thread lifting using specialised barbed sutures for more durable tissue repositioning (from 18,000 Kč), and reinforcing or firming threads for smaller localised areas (from 2,000 Kč). Thread lifting bridges the gap between injectables and surgery, producing visible lifting with minimal downtime — typically 2–5 days of mild swelling — compared to 2–4 weeks for surgical facelift recovery.

OK Medical holds official APTOS application centre status for the APTOS thread lift — a technique in which specially designed biodegradable threads are inserted subcutaneously via cannula under local anaesthesia to mechanically lift sagging facial and neck tissue. APTOS is the global market leader in thread-based lifting, and the threads produce two effects simultaneously: an immediate repositioning of descended tissue and a progressive improvement in skin tone, texture, colour, and hydration as the threads stimulate the surrounding tissue over subsequent weeks. No incisions, no sutures, and no visible scarring distinguish this from a surgical facelift. Results typically last approximately two years. All procedures are performed by MUDr. Kim Štěpánková.
