A PDO (polydioxanone) thread lift is a minimally invasive aesthetic procedure designed to lift and support areas of loose or sagging skin. It is commonly used on the face, jawline, jowls, and neck as a non-surgical option for patients seeking a more refreshed appearance.
Book OnlineHow Do PDO Threads Work?
PDO threads are carefully placed beneath the skin to provide support and create a lifting effect. The treatment also stimulates the body’s natural collagen production as the threads gradually dissolve.
Over time, increased collagen production may help improve skin firmness, texture, and the appearance of fine lines.
What Can I Expect During Treatment?
During the procedure, PDO threads are placed beneath the skin using specialized needles or cannulas. Treatment time varies depending on the areas being addressed but typically takes less than an hour.
Some swelling, bruising, tenderness, or tightness may occur following treatment. Recovery time varies, although many patients are able to resume most normal activities relatively quickly.
PDO Thread Lift Results
Some lifting may be noticeable shortly after treatment, with additional changes developing as collagen production occurs. PDO threads gradually dissolve within the body, while improvements related to collagen stimulation may continue after the threads have dissolved. Individual results and duration vary.
Who Is a Candidate?
PDO thread lifts may be appropriate for adults with mild to moderate skin laxity who want to improve facial or neck contours without undergoing surgery. Patients with more significant skin laxity may benefit from other treatment options.
Schedule a consultation to determine whether a PDO thread lift is appropriate for your skin, concerns, and aesthetic goals.
