MONO THREAD

Dense Thread Placement to Build Firmness from Within

Mono Threads That Support the Skin from Within, Rather Than Pulling

Mono Thread Lifting uses fine, cog-free PDO threads placed densely beneath the skin to create a mesh-like support structure, stimulating collagen production as the threads gradually absorb to help improve skin firmness, fine lines, and skin texture.

Mono Thread Lifting Treatment Mechanism

Densely placed mono threads help support the skin structure and stimulate collagen production.

  1. Step 01.

    Mono Thread Placement

    Fine, cog-free threads are placed densely beneath the skin to create a supportive framework.

  2. Step 02.

    Skin Structure Support

    The threads form a mesh-like structure beneath the skin to help support and improve skin firmness.

  3. Step 03.

    Collagen Stimulation

    As the threads gradually absorb, they stimulate collagen production to help improve skin firmness.

Targeted Treatment by Concern

From the face to the body, mono threads can be placed where support is needed to help improve reduced firmness and mild sagging.

  • Avoid pressing or rubbing the treated area.
  • Swelling and bruising may last for about 1 week and, depending on the individual, may persist for up to 2 weeks.
  • Avoid saunas, hot baths, strenuous exercise, and alcohol for 1 week after treatment.

FAQ

Take the time to understand your treatment and get your questions answered, so you can feel more confident and satisfied with your results.

  • A

    Mono threads are less about pulling the face up and more about firming the skin, which in turn makes it look less saggy.

  • A

    Mono threads have no barbs. Barbed cog threads reposition sagging tissue, while mono threads firm up the skin itself. Rather than dramatic change, the skin naturally becomes firmer and mild sagging improves.

  • A

    More isn’t automatically better. The number of threads is determined by your individual facial structure, and what matters most is where and in which direction they’re placed. The face may take 30–100 threads, while the upper arms and body use more.

  • A

    No, they can’t. Ultherapy improves lifting in the deeper layers of the skin, and Thermage improves dermal firmness and tightening. Mono threads, by contrast, reinforce the structure beneath the skin and remodel collagen.

  • A

    It’s well suited to those whose skin has thinned and lost firmness, with fine lines or mild sagging beginning to appear; those whose cheeks or jawline have lost definition but who find a thread lift too much; and, rather than those who want a strong lift, people whose skin has started to feel thinner and weaker than it used to.

  • A

    If a physician with in-depth anatomical knowledge places the threads at the correct depth and performs the treatment safely, the threads won’t poke out.
