The PDO Threadlift Procedure is a procedure which rejuvenates, regenerates, and improves the structure of the face, in a similar way to a surgical facelift, but without the need for surgery. The PDO Threadlift Procedure uses specialized threads (surgical sutures similar to those used in pediatric or cardiac surgeries), which are introduced into the skin with a very fine needle to lift tissue and muscle and improve skin texture.
The threads used in the PDO Threadlift Procedure are made of soluble PDO (polydioxanone), which is a material that has been used in medicine for many years, mainly in surgery. However, research has shown that PDO relaxes muscles and tendons, and also stimulates the neocollagenesis process, which encourages the production of new collagen in the skin. PDO also stimulates the synthesis of elastin and hyaluronic acid in the skin, both of which are vital for keeping the skin looking plump and youthful.
Different lengths, textures and thicknesses of threads are used for different areas of the face. Short strands of threads can be used to treat fine lines around the eyes, while thicker strands can be injected into the muscles of the forehead as an adjunct to Botulinum Toxin (Botox). Longer threads can correct and lift the neck and jawline.
The body naturally absorbs the threads over six to eight months, however, some clients report the effect of the treatment can last for up to two years.
The threads are extremely versatile and can be used all around the face and neck. The PDO Threadlift Procedure can treat vertical and horizontal wrinkles on the forehead, sagging brows, drooping cheeks, pronounced nasolabial (nose to mouth) and marionette (corner of mouth to chin) folds, sagging jawline and neck and folds and wrinkles on the chin.
The PDO threads will give the skin an immediate, natural improvement in appearance. After about 10-14 days, the process of natural body protein synthesis begins and continues over a period of two years, keeping the texture of the skin smooth and supple.
