What Is Endotine Face Lift?
Endotine Face Lift is an advanced facial-lifting technique that delivers surgical-level tightening without large incisions It uses a tiny biocompatible device called “Endotine” a bioabsorbable polymer (the same material used in dissolvable sutures) that safely integrates under the skin and gradually dissolves within 9–12 months.This device is anchored beneath the deep facial tissue at the SMAS layer(Superficial MusculoAponeurotic System) the key structure responsible for facial firmness. Once inserted, it repositions and secures sagging tissues to their youthful position, restoring definition to the cheeks, jawline, and temples with natural-looking results without the long scars of a traditional facelift
How Is It Different from Thread Lift?
Category | Endotine Face Lift | Conventional Thread Lift |
Target layer | SMAS (deep fascia) | Subcutaneous tissue (superficial) |
Longevity | 3–5 years | 6–12 months |
Material | Bioabsorbable anchoring device | PDO / PLLA dissolvable threads |
Incision | 1–2 cm hidden within the hairline | Needle punctures only |
Result | Structural, long-lasting lift | Mild surface tightening |
Endotine lies between a thread lift and a full surgical facelift providing more durable lifting without the trauma of major surgery.
Ideal Candidates

Individuals aged 30–55 years seeking long-lasting lifting without surgery
