Achieving and maintaining youthful, radiant skin is a desire shared by many. As we age, our skin naturally loses elasticity and firmness, leading to sagging and the formation of fine lines.
While surgical facelifts have long been the standard for addressing these concerns, advancements in aesthetic medicine have introduced less invasive alternatives that offer effective results with minimal downtime.
One such innovative procedure is the PDO thread lift, which has gained popularity for its ability to rejuvenate the skin without the need for surgery.
PDO Threads
Polydioxanone (PDO) threads are specialized medical-grade sutures used in aesthetic procedures to lift and tighten sagging skin. Key characteristics include:
✔ Biodegradable Material: PDO threads are composed of polydioxanone, a safe and biodegradable polyester that naturally dissolves within the body over time.
✔ Collagen Stimulation: Beyond providing an immediate lifting effect, PDO threads stimulate the body's natural collagen production, enhancing skin elasticity and texture.
✔ Versatility: They can be used to address various areas, including the cheeks, jawline, neck, and areas around the eyes and mouth.

How Does It Work?
The PDO thread lift procedure involves inserting these dissolvable threads beneath the skin using fine needles. Once in place, the threads act as a scaffold, lifting and supporting sagging tissues.
This immediate mechanical lift is complemented by the body's healing response; as the threads dissolve over several months, they stimulate collagen production, which further tightens and rejuvenates the skin.
The result is a natural-looking enhancement that improves over time, with effects lasting between 6 to 18 months, depending on individual factors such as age, skin condition, and lifestyle.

Preparation for a PDO thread lift is straightforward but essential for optimal results. Begin by consulting with a qualified and experienced practitioner to discuss your aesthetic goals and determine if you're a suitable candidate.
It's advisable to avoid alcohol and tobacco products for at least a week before the procedure, as they can interfere with the healing process. Additionally, refrain from taking anti-inflammatory medications or supplements that can increase bleeding risk, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or vitamin E, unless otherwise directed by your healthcare provider.
Arrive at your appointment with a clean face, free from makeup or skincare products. Your practitioner will provide specific pre-procedure instructions tailored to your individual needs.
