| Featherlift is a new cosmetic procedure that lifts the face with
threads. It was developed by Moscow based, Georgian cosmetic surgeon,
Dr. Marlen Sulamandize.
The procedure actually involves facial
lifting, (not pulling) which is done with Aptos threads. Once inserted
under the skin, the Aptos thread cog will form a permanent support
structure for the tissue of the face, actually lifting and contouring
it. Nasolabial lines (smile lines) will lessen as the patient's cheeks
are raised and their jowls retracted.
It takes only 20 minutes
and is performed under local anesthesia with the patient remaining
comfortably awake. There is no surgery involved; rather the Aptos
threads are inserted through a needle.
