At Premier Skin Clinic, aging gracefully doesn’t have to involve invasive procedures or extended downtime. One of the most common concerns we hear from our clients (men and women) is that they want to address the signs of aging without expensive, painful, or time-consuming cosmetic surgery. One of our favorite treatments for these clients is PDO threads: the non-surgical facelift that lifts, tightens, and rejuvenates your skin with minimal recovery time.
What are PDO threads?
PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are biodegradable sutures that have been safely used in medical procedures for decades.When strategically placed beneath the skin, these threads provide an immediate lifting effect and stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. Over time, the threads dissolve, leaving behind firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
Benefits of PDO threads
- Addresses multiple signs of aging: Including fine lines and wrinkles, sagging skin, and crepey skin
- Non-surgical solution: Achieve a lifted and youthful appearance without the risks or downtime of a traditional facelift or necklift
- Immediate results: Noticeable lifting and contouring effects are visible right after the procedure
- Collagen boost: Stimulates your body’s own natural collagen for continued skin rejuvenation
- Minimal downtime: Most clients experience little to no downtime, with mild swelling or bruising resolved in 2-4 days
- Long-lasting effects: Results can last up to 18 months, depending on individual factors and maintenance; collagen-boosting continues beyond the life of the PDO threads
How does the procedure work?
In just one quick and comfortable treatment, you can enjoy a long-lasting lift effect for up to 18 months with proper maintenance!
- Preparation: Before we apply the PDO threads beneath the skin, we ensure your total comfort by cleansing and then numbing the injection site(s).
- Thread insertion: Once we have ensured the numbing has properly taken effect, we will strategically inject the PDO threads beneath the skin using a thin needle. We will cut any excess thread and take steps to ensure the injection site heals safely and properly.
- Immediate lift: The PDO threads are shaped to intentionally “grab” and lift the skin in target areas such as the jowls, neck, cheeks, brows, and nasolabial folds.
- Collagen stimulation: Two weeks following (and up to one month after) your PDO threads injection, your body will begin synthesizing its natural proteins, including elastin and collagen, to absorb the threads and create the structures necessary to provide a natural lift effect.
