What is “Feather Lift^TM?”
The "FeatherLift^TM" is a non-surgical approach to facial skin lifting utilizing the patented "Aptos® threads."

What are “Aptos® Threads?”
The "Aptos® threads" are made of a synthetic suture material called "polypropylene." Aptos® threads are designed with tiny, barb-like bidirectional cogs. Once inserted under the skin, the cogs of the Aptos® threads open in an umbrella-like fashion and form a support structure for the tissue of the face supporting lax and sagging soft tissue.

Who is a candidate for the FeatherLift^TM?
The best candidates are men and women 30 to 60 years of age who have:

• A drop of the soft tissues of the face and neck.

• Weakly pronounced aesthetic contours.

• A flaccid, flat face.

• Premature aging and sun damaged face.

Is it hard to perform?
Performed under local anesthesia with the patient remaining awake and alert, this procedure is quick and easy. The Aptos® threads are inserted with a special hollow needle under the skin at a required depth, along contours that were previously accentuated on the face.

How does the “Feather Lift^TM” differ from a conventional face lift?
This safe procedure takes approximately 30 to 90 minutes to perform, depending on the number of areas being treated. The FeatherLift^TM does not leave any scars, requires no bandages and has minimal down time. Aftercare usually involves ice packs to the treated area, minimal facial movements and gentle tissue manipulation.
