Thread & Lift

What Thread & Lift does

Thread & Lift SPRL is a privately held Belgian medical laboratory founded in 2014 by Vincent Foumentèze, headquartered in Brussels with Infinite-Thread® manufacturing conducted exclusively in France. The company's sole commercial product is Infinite-Thread®, a permanent facial suspension thread featuring a polyester core coated in medical-grade solid silicone, with a 1.4mm diameter, purple coloration for ultrasound visibility, and over 800 patented micro-cogs arranged in an '8 Zones' configuration with anti-reversing conical geometry. The thread is CE marked and ISO 13485:2016 certified, manufactured under an 8-point quality control process per thread, and is designed to be removed entirely without sequelae if needed.

Thread & Lift sells Infinite-Thread exclusively to certified plastic surgeons and aesthetic physicians through a mandatory face-to-face training and certification program; 750 practitioners across 25 countries have been certified to date, and 15,000+ patients have been treated. The go-to-market combines direct B2B sales with exclusive distributor partnerships in Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Poland, and Jordan, alongside recurring international training workshops in Paris, Nice, Brussels, Jeddah, and Riyadh. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with free delivery for orders above €1,900 and formal purchase orders required above €10,000. The company also markets to end patients via a bilingual website, an Instagram channel (@infinitethread_world), and a results photo gallery organized by treatment area.

The business model is a single-product medical device sale with one-time B2B unit pricing; revenue is concentrated in the premium aesthetic medicine segment where surgeons charge patients for a 1h15 procedure under local anesthesia with 3-8 day recovery. No institutional funding rounds, M&A activity, or public market listings are disclosed, and ownership appears concentrated with the founders.
