Italian self-absorbing threads Dermafil Happy Lift: the effect of plastic surgery without incisions, scars and anesthesia!
“A Clinic” became one of the first clinics in Moscow to offer its patients a new revolutionary technology - caprolactone self-absorbing threads with notches for lifting soft tissues - Dermafil Happy Lift. These threads are produced only in Italy
by Promoitalia and already recognized by the ministries of health in more than 90 countries, including Russia, are fundamentally different from their previous analogues. First of all, the fact that lifting with Dermafil Happy Lift is comparable in effect to surgical lifting! But at the same time, an excellent result is achieved in just 30-40 minutes without incisions, scars and anesthesia!
According to experts, the result of a thread lift depends not only on the qualifications of the cosmetologist, but also on the quality of the threads he uses. Absolutely everything matters - the strength of the material from which they are made, its effect on the structure of the skin, size, angle of the notches, the interval between them, the length and maneuverability of the thread, etc. Dermafil Happy Lift is the most advanced and safest of all existing options for thread lifting of tissues.
The development and creation of Dermafil Happy Lift was made possible thanks to fundamental scientific research in recent years. According to Promoitalia Group President Valerio Matano, the development of new technologies is carried out in their own laboratory, and production is carried out at their own plant in Italy. New caprolactone threads have international certificates confirming the products’ compliance with medical standards.
The effect of non-surgical plastic surgery is achieved due to a special design. Designed in a herringbone shape with very small, almost invisible notches (“teeth”), these threads, when inserted under the skin, are attached using the “teeth” to the soft tissue. Thus, they form a supporting frame that tightens the contours of the face. The notches prevent the movement of fabrics and threads to other areas.
When introducing Dermafil Happy Lift threads under local anesthesia in the facial area,
neck, body, the doctor immediately forms new beautiful contours that will make you 10-15 years younger IN ONE procedure. The special structure allows you to get an INSTANT lifting effect and maintain it for a long time - from 3 to 5 years. You will see how younger you look immediately after the procedure.
With the help of Dermafil Happy Lift, you can completely get rid of deep nasolabial, chin-cheek wrinkles, raise eyebrows, remove a double chin, folds on the neck, harmonize the oval of the face, and clearly outline the chin.
The main component of Dermafil Happy Lift is caprolactone - a suture material used in surgery for more than 50 years, which over time is completely absorbed in the body and removed from it naturally. During production, double transverse polymerization of caprolactone is carried out using the “Double R2” technology. Thanks to it, the skin is completely renewed due to the formation of new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid.
Introduction Dermafil Happy Lift is one of the safest lifting methods. There is no surgical intervention, so there are no scars left on the skin. The threads are inserted to a depth of 3-5 millimeters, so damage to large vessels or nerve endings is avoided. Facial expressions are completely preserved. The recovery process proceeds very quickly, since no serious tissue injury occurs.
To obtain an instant effect, it is enough to introduce 1-3 threads per zone. Although the package contains 6 units, each of them is separately sealed while maintaining complete sterility - therefore, using Dermafil Happy Lift is convenient and financially beneficial.
Line of threads Dermafil Happy Lift
There is a whole line of Dermafil Happy Lift threads.
Threads of different lengths, with notches in the required direction, are created for each of the areas of the face. By combining certain options, the doctor can create an optimal scheme for correcting soft tissue ptosis for each patient. Boca is designed to increase lip volume.
Sides are the ideal solution for those who want to safely and permanently increase lip volume.
The production technology of this thread includes the process of double transverse polymerization of caprolactone, which provides a longer lasting and voluminous lip correction effect. But, at the same time, the introduction of Bock allows you to avoid many unwanted problems, such as, for example, the effect of pumped lips.
Installing Bok is a guarantee that the lips will acquire clear, beautiful and at the same time natural contours. No one will ever think that the shape of the lips has been corrected.
In addition to giving natural volume, with the help of Bok you can reduce the so-called smoker's wrinkles. All this with minimal impact, in one session, under local anesthesia!
The Double Needle was created to correct the shape of the eyebrows and chin.
This bi-directional thread with converging notches quickly, with minimal intervention, allows you to achieve absolute symmetry in the correction of the eyebrows and jawline. This occurs thanks to atraumatic needles attached to both ends, which can be inserted simultaneously.
Face lift threads. Features of their use
Non-absorbable threads for lifting - suitable for correcting pronounced sagging skin and eliminating age-related defects. Previously, for reinforcement purposes, wires made of inert precious metals that were not rejected by the body were widely used: gold and platinum of the highest standard. The once popular gold thread reinforcement technology has given way to newer developments. Now cosmetologists prefer innovative polymer bases in face lift threads. The key substance in their composition is polypropylene, a material with pronounced strength and wear resistance; Teflon is less commonly used. Such non-degradable polypropylene or Teflon threads guarantee visible tightening for up to 5 years: lying deep enough, they effectively tighten and hold the surface and middle layers of tissue.
Most often, non-absorbable foundations are recommended for patients with obvious age-related changes who have not exceeded the age of 50. It should be taken into account that the introduction of such threads imposes restrictions on the use of a number of hardware cosmetology techniques in the future.
Aptos threads are common . At the moment, the Aptos thread is recognized as the most effective in the world of cosmetology. Thanks to the thickness and shape of the threads, the Aptos facelift is able to reliably lift and fix the subcutaneous layers and combat ptosis (sagging of soft tissues due to weakened muscle function). The Aptos line has a wide selection of fibers in composition and texture (kogi - notched, and spiral cut) depending on the area that needs to be corrected.
Aptos threads for face lifting are non-absorbable - these are polypropylene aptos threads, and absorbable - biodegradable aptos threads made of caprolactone, which promotes enhanced collagen production.
, Teflon Gore-Tex threads are similar to aptos (they also belong to the category of non-biodegradable threads), but they are not so widespread.
Self-absorbable lifting threads, subject to biodegradation, form a framework, stimulating the skin's natural support through the production of collagen or hyaluronic acid. They are not suitable for severe ptosis and are more suitable for middle-aged patients. The effect lasts up to 2-3 years. Self-absorbable threads are currently divided into categories based on their qualitative composition - caprolon/caprolactone, polydioxanone, polylactic acid.
Polydiaxonone ( mesothreads) for face lifting are largely recommended for the prevention of age-related changes and to combat the initial manifestations of aging; face lifting with mesothreads is recommended for patients under 35-40 years of age. The technology came from South Korea. The thinnest of all those used, mesothreads for the face are installed shallowly, at the level of the hypodermis, that is, directly in the skin. The effectiveness of mesothreads is primarily related to the effect on tissue structure: they additionally enrich the layers of facial skin with lactic acid, which can significantly increase collagen synthesis. The mesothread lifting procedure stimulates biological reactions in the skin, under the influence of which revitalization or tissue rejuvenation occurs.
Separately, sometimes as an alternative to traditional thread lifting, reinforcement with liquid safe threads (or biothreads) is considered. The mechanism of action is the same self-resorption of the base with the subsequent formation of a collagen framework of the face. Liquid threads for the face have a safe and natural composition close to the body tissues, “locked” in a gel-like structure.
This operation is distinguished by its technology: a composition of hyaluronic acid and zinc oxide is injected under the skin with a syringe with a very thin needle, which gradually hardens and forms a stable subcutaneous mesh frame, smoothing out wrinkles. Liquid threads are gradually eliminated from the body. Of course, they give the mildest effect in comparison with other methods, but they cannot correct pronounced problems caused by age. The result after injection under the skin lasts up to 3 years - innovative liquid threads for the face, even when removed, continue to “work”.
Polylactic threads are made of polylactic acid - this is a special fiber that promotes tissue regeneration and slows down aging by activating cellular renewal. Lactic acid is a natural substance, an unchanged and important participant in many biochemical processes in the body, which is produced almost every second as a result of the breakdown of sugars. Many experts recommend polylactic threads for the first tightening procedure and for slowing down skin aging after 30 years. It is also important that after the installation of the threads and the end of the rehabilitation period, it is possible to carry out any cosmetic and aesthetic procedures without restrictions.
In the category of polylactic acid-based products injected under the skin, we can highlight the increasingly popular Resorblift threads. The French developed the methodology for working with them; Then America, European and Asian countries, and Russia joined the use of these polylactic fibers - in our country these threads have been used for more than 6 years. After injection under the skin, the acid begins to gradually dissolve, stimulating the active production of natural collagen, the fibers of which gradually replace the threads and form a new frame. Such assistance in rejuvenation through the natural processes of regeneration of the body is as natural and reliable as possible.
Combined lifting threads are a hybrid of absorbable and non-absorbable. These cosmetic lifting fibers are based on polypropylene and polylactic acid. As a rule, these are conical threads that appeared 5 years ago and are already quite well known in the cosmetology services market.
On average, non-absorbable threads provide an effect lasting 5-6 years, self-absorbable threads help maintain the resulting rejuvenation result for 2-3 years. The first type is recommended for older patients or with severe problems, and the second type of facelift threads is recommended for middle-aged patients in whom the changes are less noticeable.
Benefits of Dermafil Happy Lift
- the safest and most effective type of lifting;
- does not require anesthesia (local anesthesia is used for the procedure);
- biodegradability (a few months after installation, the threads completely dissolve, so no foreign substance remains in the tissues);
- the threads not only tighten the face, but also significantly improve the quality of the skin (after installation, the skin is tightened, thickened, smoothed, and acquires a radiant color);
- threads prevent aging, slowing down the passage of time.
- completely eliminate nasolabial, chin-cheek wrinkles, tighten the neck, correct the contour of the chin, raise the eyebrows, without resorting to the technique of traditional lifts.
Carrying out the Happy Lift installation procedure
Threads are inserted under the skin to a depth of 3-5 mm. The procedure does not require general anesthesia and can be performed on an outpatient basis or in an operating room. Implantation of threads takes about half an hour. After the procedure, small bruises may remain on the face at the puncture sites, which will subside in the coming days. The lifting effect is observed almost from the first days, and increases over the following months.
Recovery
Thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure. You don't have to take time off from work or give up your favorite hobbies for a long time. A couple of days until the residual effects of the procedure pass - and you can completely return to your usual rhythm of life. The recommendation is to initially refrain from thermal procedures (bath, sauna, steaming the skin) and not to eat a lot of salt, so as not to provoke swelling.
Composition, properties and types of Italian Dermafill Happylift threads
Dermafill Happylift threads contain a biocompatible (not rejected in tissues after insertion) and biodegradable (absorbable) compound – caprolactone. They contain special notches on the surface that stimulate fibrosis processes in the tissues around the inserted thread. This allows you to create additional volume in the tissues, increase the strength of the base (framework) in the area of correction and make the result more long-term. Depending on the structure, shape and indications, there are several varieties of these threads, which include:
• Dermafill Happylift BOCA.
It is a strong thread with diverging notches along its contour, around which connective tissue is formed after insertion. The main indication for the use of this type of filler is lip contouring - lifting them, increasing volume, correcting shape and eliminating small wrinkles. The thread is inserted into the tissue using a special hollow guide needle. The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis and does not require hospitalization. The duration of the result is at least 3 years.
• Dermafill Happylift MESO COGS.
A universal thread that allows for skin lifting in any area of the body. Unidirectional small notches are applied to the contour of the thread, which stimulate the formation of a framework of connective tissue and collagen fibers around it. The main indication for the use of such a filler is revitalization (rejuvenation) of various areas of the skin - the back of the hand, décolleté, face, inner and outer surface of the shoulder, neck and lower jaw area. Thanks to its properties, the filler gives the effect of skin rejuvenation, increases its moisture, elasticity and tone. The duration of this effect lasts for a year or more.
• Dermafill Happylift FREE FLOATING.
The thread contour contains converging bidirectional notches, which, when the thread is inserted into the tissue, are straightened and contribute to high-quality fixation. This structure allows this thread to be used for lifting while significantly reducing tissue tone (“sagging”). The most common areas of application are cheekbones and neck. The result is noticeable almost immediately after administration and lasts for more than a year.
• Dermafill Happylift DOUBLE NEEDLE.
Bidirectional lifting thread with converging notches. The thread contains 2 injection needles, which will allow simultaneous skin tightening in symmetrical areas of the body located close to each other. Therefore, this filler is used when there is a pronounced decrease in skin tone in the area of the cheekbones, lower jaw, neck and eyebrows. The converging direction of the notches allows the thread to be firmly fixed in the tissue. The result is noticeable almost immediately after administration and lasts for about 3 years. Additional strength to the subcutaneous framework is given by the formation of connective tissue and collagen fibers around the filler.
The procedure for tightening the skin with threads and subcutaneous tissue with the introduction of Dermafill Happylift at the clinic of the GENESIS Medical Academy is carried out by cosmetologists who have significant experience and qualifications in performing this type of plastic manipulation. To relieve pain and eliminate unpleasant sensations and discomfort, local anesthesia is performed using modern anesthetics before the lift. All types of threads for skin tightening used in the clinic of the GENESIS Medical Academy have a quality certificate. Lifting is performed on an outpatient basis for a short period of time.
General characteristics of Happy Lift threads
Thread lifting with Happy Lift threads are recommended for correcting age-related changes in the eyebrows, cheeks, lips, neck, chin, and shaping the contours of the face and body.
Happy Lift threads are made from caprolactone, a hypoallergenic, self-absorbable material widely used as a suture material in surgery. Additionally, the threads are treated with polylactic acid, thanks to which the effect of instant rejuvenation is achieved.
Polylactic acid is a laboratory-produced biopolymer that does not cause autoimmune reactions. It stimulates the synthesis of hyaluronic acid by connective tissue fibroblasts. At the same time, the body produces its own hyaluronic acid, which is synthesized exactly where it is most needed.
The effect of polylactic acid has a delayed effect and is due to natural tissue restructuring: in response to implantation of threads, new collagen fibers are formed. This process continues after the microparticles of the thread have completely dissolved.
In addition, HappyLift threads are fixed threads: thanks to directional incisions, they create a new “framework” for the soft tissues of the face, which return to their original position – as in youth. As a result, the patient immediately after the procedure looks like in his early photographs.
Advantages of barbed threads (APTOS, HappyLift) over plastic surgery
Skin tightening with jagged threads has many advantages compared to plastic surgery:
- it does not take much time to fully recover (3-5 days to a week is enough)
- For absolute patient comfort during the procedure, local anesthesia is sufficient
- minimal load on the body as a whole and on the skin itself (it is not peeled off from the subcutaneous tissue, it does not become thinner and continues to receive adequate nutrition, thanks to undamaged blood vessels)
- 100% guarantee of not only excellent results, but also the preservation of your individuality and facial features
- easy correction of the result obtained
- it is possible to install non-absorbable (permanent) threads for the longest lasting effect

Rehabilitation
The entire rehabilitation period lasts about 1-2 weeks. To speed up the recovery process, the patient may be prescribed decongestants and plasma lifting procedures, microcurrent therapy, hardware cosmetology, and mesotherapy. During the rehabilitation period, asymmetry, swelling, hematomas, and thread retractions may be observed. This is just the norm for the rehabilitation period, and all these phenomena will pass over time.
To help yourself recover, the patient can:
- within 24 hours after the procedure, apply cold to the correction area;
- for 2-3 days avoid hot food and drinks, temperature changes;
- Treat puncture sites with antiseptics for 3 days;
- For a week, limit the activity of facial expressions, refrain from physical activity, visiting the bathhouse, sauna and swimming pool.
Mesothreads and surgical threads: what is the difference?
Surgical threads APTOS and HappyLift differ significantly from the long-known 3D mesothreads.
Mesothreads are rich in skin-beneficial components and powerful moisturizing ingredients. They are primarily aimed at quickly and significantly tightening the skin, improving skin tone and elasticity, deep hydration and biorevitalization.
Surgical threads are designed for something completely different - they are fixed in the deep layers of the skin and stretch it in the direction specified by the doctor. For this purpose, APTOS and HappyLift threads have special notches - kind of anchors that are strengthened inside and tighten the desired area of skin in the right direction.
