Thread Lift

Non-Surgical Face Lift • Natural, Long-Lasting Results

Thread Lift is a minimally invasive treatment designed to lift and rejuvenate sagging skin without surgery. At R·MEDYᴹᴰ Aesthetics Burnaby, we use the Aptos Visage Excellence™ method—an advanced, globally recognized thread technology valued for its safety, precision, and natural-looking results.

What is a Thread Lift?

A Thread Lift is a non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure that restores youthful definition by repositioning sagging tissue and stimulating natural collagen production. Our skilled medical team carefully places medical-grade threads beneath the skin to provide subtle lift and support where it’s needed most. This technique enhances facial contours, improves skin firmness, and encourages long-term collagen renewal—delivering natural, lasting rejuvenation without extended downtime.

The treatment provides an immediate lifting effect while gradually improving skin firmness, texture, and elasticity over time. It’s an ideal choice for those seeking a refreshed, youthful appearance without surgery.
