Emerald is a molding-cog thread lift using 3D multi-directional barbed absorbable threads. The molding-cog design anchors the SMAS layer more securely than smooth threads, producing a firmer lift along the cheek, jawline and jowl while stimulating Type I and Type III collagen as the threads gradually absorb over 12–18 months.
It sits between entry threads and the full-face Grand Diamond protocol — a focused lift for the lower-third of the face.
Where it comes from, what's inside, who certifies it.
Molding-cog absorbable threads are fully synthetic polymers (polydioxanone / polycaprolactone). No animal-derived components, no alcohol.
