PDO Threads

A PDO thread lift is a revolutionary new treatment in the world of aesthetics, but PDO threads themselves have been used safely for decades for various applications, like treating gynecological disorders or suturing incisions after medical procedures. When used as an aesthetic treatment, there are a few things you should know.

First, it mechanically results in instant skin lifting. Second, it contracts fat tissue to result in instant skin tightening. Third, it promotes collagen production and neovascularization to renew your skin at the cellular level. All of this works together to give you enhanced skin texture, fewer fine lines and wrinkles and more elastic skin.

FEEL REFRESHED AND REJUVENATED WITHOUT SURGERY

If you feel your face is sagging and you are getting jowls under your chin, why not try PDO Thread Lifts?

Using PDO Threads to safely and effectively reduce this, giving you a more refreshed and rejuvenated look.

The PDO Thread Lift is an effective cosmetic technique that lifts and tighten sagging skin tissues by inducing collagen production. It involves the implantation of fine, absorbable polydioxanone threads under the skin using small needles.

  • Low-impact mini facelift cosmetic technique without surgery
  • Treatment is performed in one short session only with local anaesthetic and without hospitalisation with minimal side effects
  • Provides a lift and volumisation at the same time
  • Results in a more refreshed and rejuvenated appearance

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

PDO (Polydioxanone) thread is a strong filament fibre,consisting of a few twisted solid fiber thread, which dissolves in the body tissue after a certain time (usually 6 months).

PDO material is used for more than 30 years in plastic surgery, gastroenterology, urology, gynaecology, ophthalmology for cutaneous and subcutaneous stitches. These threads have high tensile strength, excellent pliability and smooth tissue passage. This material meets all the requirements established by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) for surgical sutures.

PDO ultimately breaks down into water and carbon dioxide which are naturally absorbed into skin.

PDO cause a very mild reaction during absorption, minimal acute inflammatory reaction with subsequent formation of new collagen production around the thread (neo collagenesis).

The procedure is suitable for most people from 25 onwards, when the effects of ageing become apparent. Ageing causes the skin tissue to thin because the collagen and elastin fibres break down, which results in sagging skin, deep creases, folds and wrinkles. PDO threads reverse the effects of ageing and improve the quality of skin.

If you do not want to have face lift surgery, a thread lift can be a very effective alternative. Threads are implanted into the sub-dermal skin and stimulate the production of collagen, so the skin becomes firmer and more elastic. The thread dissolves itself in 6 months but the effects lasts around 18 months.

The threads can be applied to anywhere on the face, such as neck, mid-face, cheeks, jawline, marionettes, nasolabial, upper lip, tear trough, crows feet and above brows.

The procedure is simple, safe and causes minimal discomfort and minimal downtime. Numbing cream will be applied to the treatment area for additional comfort. The PDO threads are then inserted under the skin to a depth of about three to five millimetres using needles of differing length and thickness, adapted to each treatment area, creating an immediate lifting effect. The number of threads used will vary according to the needs of each client.

As with any cosmetic treatment, some slight swelling, redness and bruising may sometimes be observed, but these effects disappear within several days.

Various acute infectious diseases

Inflammation of the skin

Cancers

Tendency to keloids

Bleeding tendency and some diseases of the blood (blood clotting)

Immune system disorders

Pregnancy and breast feeding

 

Post treatment care and advice:

Please do not touch the treated area for 4 hours after the treatment

Please avoid sleeping on the treated area for 3 nights

When a bruise does appear, please apply arnica gel several times a day (this can be purchased from any pharmacy)

Please do not plan any facial treatment for 4 weeks. You can then plan other facial treatments except for laser treatment.

Avoid strenuous exercise and warming up of your face for 2 weeks

You will be able to see a good effect as soon as you leave the clinic but it is important to keep in mind that it will take 2 weeks for collagen to start working. You will start to see even better results after 4-6 weeks post treatment.
