PDO Thread Lifts at a Glance
Polydioxanone (PDO) threads are biodegradable sutures that are inserted into the skin to create a lifting effect. These threads stimulate collagen production, which helps to improve skin texture and elasticity over time. PDO thread lifts are a popular alternative to surgical facelifts, offering a less invasive and quicker recovery process.
What to Know About PDO Thread Lifts
PDO thread lifts are performed using a fine needle or cannula to insert the threads into the targeted areas. The threads are then manipulated to lift and reposition the skin. The procedure typically takes about 30-60 minutes, and the results are immediate, with further improvement as collagen production increases over the following weeks. The threads dissolve naturally over 4-6 months, but the lifting effects can last up to 1-2 years.
