You should be a licensed healthcare professional with basic knowledge of facial anatomy and ideally some experience with injectable procedures, but no prior thread experience is required. The course builds your skills from the ground up.

Smooth mono threads are placed beneath the skin to stimulate collagen production and improve skin quality and tightness. Barbed threads have small barbs or cogs that grip tissue and physically lift it to a higher position. Level I covers both types, with emphasis on smooth thread mastery and introduction to basic barbed techniques.

Level I techniques produce visible skin tightening, texture improvement, and mild-to-moderate lifting. Smooth thread treatments are excellent for jawline definition, cheek skin quality, and neck tightening. Basic barbed threads provide noticeable mid-face lifting. These are highly marketable procedures that patients value for their natural results and minimal downtime.

Yes, Level I prepares you for Level II (intermediate lifting techniques and combination protocols) and Level III (advanced multi-directional lifting and complex cases).
