What is a Thread Lifting?

This is a surgical procedure, in which sagging tissues are lifted by elevation and fixation of new suspension threads that overcome the disadvantages of conventional tissue lifting implants.

A unique mesh structure is included in the sutures to permit firm and effective pulling of the tissues, and fixation of the suspension system threads. Thus, the TESS threads remarkably reduce the recurrence of tissue sagging, while hering more solidly than conventional dissolving suture. It has advantages without the concerns on recurrence.
TESS Lift has a high satisfaction rate with a semi-permanent effect, as opposed to that of other lifting procedures
