Cat's Lift (Thread Lifting)
DU's signature thread lift — a fox-eye axis and jawline definition in under an hour, walk out the same day

Overview
Cat's Lift is DU's signature thread lifting design: barbed absorbable threads placed along vectors that lift the mid-face and jawline while subtly elevating the lateral axis — the clean, slightly lifted line behind the 'cat' name.
Placement is anatomical, not cosmetic guesswork: thread paths follow the facial ligaments for a hold that looks lifted, never pulled. Under an hour with sedation, immediate return to daily life, and collagen stimulation that keeps improving the result for months.

Cat's Lift (Thread Lifting) — FAQ
How long does a thread lift last?
The mechanical lift holds roughly 12–18 months while collagen built along the threads extends the visible benefit; annual maintenance keeps it continuous.
Does it hurt afterward?
Tightness and tenderness for several days is normal; most patients manage with simple analgesics and resume work immediately.
Thread lift vs facelift?
Threads suit early-to-moderate laxity; established heavy sagging is honest facelift territory — DU tells you plainly which side you are on.
Will I look pulled or unnatural?
No — ligament-based vectors move tissue where it descended from, which is precisely why the result reads natural.
