PDO Threads
Polydioxanone threads, are a type of absorbable suture material used in cosmetic procedures to lift and tighten sagging skin. These threads are made from a synthetic, biocompatible polymer that naturally dissolves over time. When placed under the skin, PDO threads create a supportive structure that stimulates collagen production, leading to improved skin elasticity and firmness.
The Procedure
Process
It involves inserting the threads into the skin using fine needles, and once in place, they provide immediate lift and support. Over time, the threads dissolve, but the collagen production continues, further enhancing the skin's appearance. PDO threads are commonly used for facial lifting, jawline contouring, and neck rejuvenation, offering a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgical facelifts. The treatment is generally well-tolerated, with minimal downtime and can provide natural-looking, long-lasting results for suitable candidates.
