Threadlifting

The lifting is performed using gold threads (999 gold, 24 carats) with a diameter of 0.1 mm. Gold is used due to its inertness, hypoallergenicity, and also due to the absence of absorption over time. After the introduction of several months, collagen capsules are formed around the thread, creating a framework for the soft tissues of the face. The most effective rejuvenation result is obtained with the preventive use of the procedure up to 30 years, until age-related changes appear. The skin becomes elastic, folds are straightened and tightened, wrinkles are smoothed out, the work of sweat and sebaceous glands returns to normal, capillaries on the face become less noticeable, the appearance of cellulite is reduced.

Rejuvenation with phytostem cells

Plant-type stem cells contain a powerful growth potential due to the increased concentration of active substances (these are fatty acids, nucleic and amino acids, phytohormones, coenzymes, peptides), which ensure the life of plants in the future. Extracts of plant-based stem cells make it possible to correct the manifestations of age-related skin changes. With their help, toxins are removed, metabolic processes are improved, the main cellular components are restored, the healing period is reduced, and faster regeneration of tissue connections is created. It is important that the use of phytostem cells is completely harmless and safe.

Medical centers in South Korea successfully use plant stem cells for various procedures. Such cells can be used externally, in the form of cream, masks, and injected subcutaneously.
