Is this for you?
- My cheeks and jawline have dropped a little.
- I want a lift, without surgery.
- I want to look like me, only lifted.
If you recognise yourself, Vectorial Lift may be a good place to start. Dr. Douaihy confirms it once he has examined you.
The science, simply.
Where it works
- Light
- Firmness
- Structure
Fine threads that the body absorbs are placed beneath the skin, along the lines that have settled lower. They lift and hold the tissue in its place. As they slowly dissolve over the following months, they leave new collagen behind, so the support outlasts the threads themselves.
More about Vectorial Lift
A thread lift uses fine, absorbable PDO threads placed beneath the skin along vectors that Dr. Douaihy draws for your face. The threads lift and support from the first day, then prompt new collagen as they dissolve over the following months. At the clinic, the thread lift is delivered within the AGECODE Biovector Lift, a program that pairs it with biostimulation for skin quality.
What you’ll feel, and see.
- During
A local anaesthetic first. Most patients feel pressure more than pain.
- After
Tightness and some swelling for a few days, so plan a quiet week.
- Over time
The lift shows straight away and settles over the following weeks.
Day by day
- Day 0
The lift is visible, with tightness and some swelling. Sleep on your back and keep facial movement gentle.
- Days 1–7
Swelling, tenderness and any bruising settle. Avoid wide mouth opening, facial massage and intense exercise.
- Weeks 2–4
The contour settles, and your review is planned.
- Months 2–3
New collagen strengthens the support as the threads dissolve.
The Dr. Douaihy protocol
Dr. Douaihy places every thread himself. The AGECODE Biovector Lift combines the vectorial thread lift with an NCTF Duo Boost for skin quality. It starts from a consultation on file and ends with a review two to four weeks after the last treatment.
A thread lift is engineering in miniature. I draw each vector so the lift follows the architecture the face already has.Dr. Douaihy to approve quote

On your written plan, it may appear as
- AGECODE — Biovector LiftThread lift with biostimulation
It suits you if
- Early to moderate softening of the cheeks or jawline that you’d like lifted with firmer support.
- Good skin quality, with a wish for a more defined contour.
- A preference for a minimally invasive lift, with a short recovery planned in advance.
- You can set aside a few quiet days after treatment.
When another option is better
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- Infection, inflammation or an active skin condition in the area.
- Very thin skin or marked laxity, where threads give little and a surgeon’s opinion may serve you better.
- Blood thinners, bleeding disorders or certain autoimmune conditions, which are reviewed at your consultation.
- Dental treatment planned within the next three weeks.
Questions about Vectorial Lift
All questionsAre PDO threads safe?
PDO is an absorbable material with a long history in medical sutures. Dr. Douaihy places the threads himself after a consultation, and reviews you two to four weeks later.
How long does a thread lift last?
It varies with your skin and the area. Many patients see the support last around a year, and Dr. Douaihy reviews it with you.
Will the threads be visible or felt?
They sit beneath the skin and should not be visible. You may feel them for a few weeks when you touch the area.
Is a thread lift right for me, or HIFU?
A thread lift gives firmer, mechanical support along chosen lines. Ultraformer III tightens from within with little or no downtime. Dr. Douaihy may recommend one or both.
