The cannula will be pushed through the tissue beneath the skin. PDO threads are attached to a long cannula. Multiple threads can be inserted through the same point in the skin. Once marked, the insertion points will be throughly anesthetized.
PDO THREAD LIFT BEFORE AND AFTER SKIN
Patients who desire more lifting and volume will better benefit from textured cog or screw threads.īefore treatment, the patient's skin will be marked for insertion and direction of the inserted threads.
Screw threads have 1-2 intertwined threads which provide volume to the treated area.įor patients who only desire skin tightening and rejuvenation, mono threads may be sufficient. Mono threads are singular, smooth sutures that are anchored to the face that provide a small lift to the face.Ĭog threads have a barbed texture that provide better lift and increased collagen production. There are three main textures of PDO sutures: mono, cog, and screw threads. PDO thread lifts, sometimes referred to as PDS thread lifts, come in a variety of textures. PDO, which stands for polydioxanone, is an absorbable polymer that is flexible and durable for minimally invasive thread lifts. PDO sutures are a type of material used for thread lifts. Although the effects from a thread lift will be temporary and not as dramatic as a facelift, improvement in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles can be seen gradually as the procedure stimulates natural collagen production. Thread lifts have become a minimally invasive alternative to the facelift for patients who are not ready to undergo more aggressive treatment options.
