PDO THREAD LIFT

LIFT YOUR SAGGY SKIN

A PDO thread lift is a procedure that uses dissolvable sutures to tighten and lift your skin. It’s a less invasive procedure than a facelift surgery and can often be performed in under 45 minutes without needing to go under a scalpel.

WHAT IS PDO THREAD LIFT?

A thread lift is a type of procedure where temporary sutures are used to produce a subtle but visible "lift" in the skin. Instead of removing the patient's loose facial skin surgically, the doctor simply suspends it by stitching up portions of it. This has the effect of pulling the skin back slightly and therefore lifting and tightening the face.

In addition to being ideal for lifting the skin, threads combat aging in another way: by provoking the body's "healing response" and causing the body to direct large surges of collagen to treated areas. This is important because of the vital role collagen plays in the aging process.

PDO threads are made from Polydiaxanone suture material that has been used in surgical procedures, such as cardiac, osteopathic and plastic surgery for decades. Hypoallergenic and non-pyrogenic, PDO threads are a safe and effective way to lift and tighten sagging skin.

HOW DOES PDO THREAD LIFT WORK?

Once PDO threads are inserted it can produce four effects:

·  Immediate skin lifting

·  New collagen production

· Removes fine lines

·  Skin tightening 

The threads are dissolved. Due to cellular rejuvenation and collagen stimulation the lifting effects are seen immediately but the full result isn’t considered complete until 6-8 weeks after the treatment.

The threads contract the fat in the skin and enhance the production of new blood vessels and collagen to promote microcirculation.

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR PDO THREADS?

The ideal candidate for PDO (Polydioxanone) threads is someone who has mild to moderate facial sagging, skin laxity, or wrinkles and desires a non-surgical and minimally invasive solution for facial rejuvenation.

As with any cosmetic procedure, results may vary, and a consultation with an experienced healthcare professional is essential to determine if PDO threads are the right option for any individuals aesthetic goals.
