You learn two complementary approaches. Nu-Mesh uses smooth or twisted threads (mono and screw) to build a collagen-stimulating mesh in the neck, cheeks and lips. Nu-Lyft uses barbed (cog) threads to reposition and tighten tissue along the jawline and cheeks, and on the body. Taught by Dr Philippe Hamida-Pisal and our clinical team.

- Select the right thread — mono, screw or cog — and plan the treatment for each patient.
- Place Nu-Mesh threads to stimulate collagen in the neck, cheeks and lips.
- Insert Nu-Lyft barbed threads to reposition and tighten the jawline and cheeks.
- Identify danger zones and contraindications, work aseptically and manage complications.
