PDO thread lifts are minimally invasive that help to improve the appearance of your skin.

A PDO thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that can help to improve the appearance of your skin. It can be used to treat a variety of concerns, including wrinkles, sagging skin, and acne scars.

How Does a PDO Thread Lift Work?

A PDO thread lift is a type of facial rejuvenation procedure that uses threads made from polydioxanone (PDO) to lift and tighten the skin. PDO threads are absorbable, meaning they will eventually dissolve over time. The threads are inserted into the skin using special needles. Once in place, the threads act as scaffolding to support the skin and provide lift.

The threads also stimulate collagen production, which helps to further improve the appearance of the skin. PDO thread lifts can be used to treat a variety of concerns, including wrinkles, sagging skin, and acne scars. The procedure can be performed on the face, neck, or body. It is often used as an alternative to facelift surgery or other more invasive procedures. PDO thread lifts are effective for all skin types and colours.

What Can I Expect from a PDO Thread Lift Procedure?

PDO thread lift procedures are typically performed in an outpatient setting using local anaesthesia. The procedure usually takes less than an hour to complete. You may experience some bruising and swelling after your procedure, but this should resolve within a week or two. You will be able to see results immediately after your procedure, and these results will continue to improve over time as your body produces more collagen. Results typically last for 12-24 months before touch-ups are necessary.

This minimally invasive procedure can help improve the appearance of wrinkles, sagging skin, and acne scars and might be right for you!

It's important to remember that individual results may vary from one person to another.
