Aptos Thread-Lift

Appropriately nicknamed the “Lunchtime Face Lift”, the Aptos Thread Lift or Featherlift, is a procedure using special suture threads, which counteracts the effects of aging by “lifting up” sagging skin on the face, forehead, and neck.

Who is a good candidate for Aptos Threads?
The candidate best suited for the Thread Lift technique is someone with mild to moderate sagging of the facial skin. Typically areas can be addressed, the cheeks, the jowls, and the neck.

How is the procedure performed?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. The APTOS threads are carefully inserted under the skin using an introducer. The placement of the threads depends on the area needing to be lifted. As few as two threads per cheek will give you a noticeably lift. The main advantage of the thread lift is that there is considerably less downtime required than with the traditional facelift, there are no incisions, and the procedure will take only one hour.

What is the recovery like?
After the procedure the patient may return to work as early as the next day, although there may be minimal swelling and there is always a chance of bruising. It is important to avoid excessive facial movement, rubbing, or massaging of the treated areas for the first 2-3 weeks.

What results can I expect?
There are often immediate results however, the effect of the treatment will continue to improve over several months as the collagen in the skin collects around the newly placed threads. The threads will leave no scars.

Are there any side-effects/risks?
Complications are very rare but include the thread end working its way out of the entrance to the skin, which is remedied by just trimming the protruding end. Patients on occasion may develop a pucker. This is easily treated with massage.

Aquamid

Permanent Dermal Filler
Aquamid Treatment is a simple, non surgical procedure that produces fast and effective results without recovery time. It also effectively shapes facial contours and lips. The product is produced by Contura SA a subsidiary of Danish pharmaceutical company Ferroson A/S.

Aquamid is commonly used for the facial area which shows signs of aging, such as deep frown lines between eyebrows, smoker’s lines around lips. Lips can be made fuller and smoother with better definition. It is also useful for treating acne and chicken pox scars.

Aquamid is a non re-absorbable, long-lasting product. It does not become hard once injected and does not migrate from the point of injection. Scientific research has shown that the gel will stay in its place for at least 7 years. Progressive ageing of the skin does of course still continue.

How is the treatment administered?

Aquamid is given by subcutaneous (under the skin) injection. To avoid discomfort and render the treatment completely painless, a local anesthetic injection is given. The treatment takes 20 – 30 minutes, depending on the area treated.

Post procedure Recommendations

Post procedure side effects

For the first hour after the procedure numbness or tingling may occur due to the local anesthetic. At the sight of the procedure redness and slight swelling may occur. These side effects should disappear within 24 hours. As with any injection, bruising may occur. It is generally only “pin point” in size and can be covered with makeup after 12 hours.

Fruit Acid Peel

Skin rejuvenation

Alpha hydroxyl acids or AHAs rejuvenate the skin by encouraging the shedding of old, sun-damaged surface skin cells. The most potent proven skin anti-aging product is Glycolic Acid, a Fruit Acid made from natural sugar cane. Glycolic Acid works by stimulating the skin to produce collagen and elastin, the natural proteins in the skin that are responsible for the skin’s normal healthy smoothness and suppleness. These important proteins are directly destroyed by the sun. Glycolic Acids also help fade dark blemishes and pigment spots and exfoliate, or gently remove, the thickened, dead outer layer of skin that occurs with sun exposure.

At BIMC Anti-aging Clinic you can have a series of Fruit Acid Peels to correct and prevent sun damage, repair fine lines and wrinkles that occur with sun exposure, reduce pigment spots and promote a smooth, healthy uniform complexion.

This procedure only takes about 15 minutes and can be performed on the face, neck, chest and back of hands.

The number of peels is dependant on each individuals required outcome. Some people may just opt for one peel once every three months. Others may greatly benefit from a bi-weekly series (5-8) peels over a number of weeks.

Procedure

Firstly, the area is cleaned and dried. The peel is then applied. Wait 2-5 minutes (depending on the sensitivity of the skin and/or the amount of damage). The area is then cleaned again this time with purified iced water. A Vitamin C serum and sun block is then applied.

Is it painful?

The procedure is uncomfortable (stings mildly) with a feeling of heat and / or tingerling sensation.

Post procedure Recommendations

Immediately after the procedure, do not rub or massage the treated area. Avoid the sun. Apply a SPF 30 sun block on the area every morning before going out.

Post procedure side effects

Redness, tenderness, blotchiness or slight swelling may occur in some patients within the first few hours after the procedure. The recommendations are therefore ice or iced water gently wiped over the area. Within 12 hours there should be no side effects however, over the course of the next week the skin will exfoliate (peel and become dry).
