PDO Smooth Threads Provide A Firmer, Youthful Look

PDO threads are a popular cosmetic treatment that helps stimulate collagen production to tighten and smooth your skin for a more youthful appearance. Also known as slick or smooth threads, this procedure places soft, flexible sutures into the tissues of your face to offer a lifting or firming effect. PDO threads help you reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, particularly around your eyes and mouth. You may prefer this treatment if you want to address larger areas of the face than addressed by other lifting procedures.

The PDO threads are made from a completely biocompatible material, so they can reside inside the body with minimal side effects. We can provide additional treatment to help you adjust to any temporary bruising, discomfort, or minor headaches. If you are happy with your results, we can provide another session within a year as your results begin to wear off. Replace that sentence with the following: For optimal results, smooth threads are placed in a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart. Since our bodies continually break down collagen, you can maintain your progress with a session periodically. 

How Are My PDO Smooth Threads Placed?

To begin your treatment, we will first apply a local anesthetic to ensure your comfort throughout. This allows us to insert your thread painlessly but carefully. Using a needle, we tug your PDO threads below the surface of your skin to align them through your tissue. The threads anchor in place using stitches that dissolve over time. After healing from placement, you will begin to see improvement almost immediately. At around two months following treatment, your full results become visible.

What Areas Do PDO Smooth Threads Treat?

PDO threads can help reduce moderate wrinkles and lines around your mouth and eyes. By employing minimally invasive facial rejuvenation techniques, we can provide desirable results with little downtime or need for recovery. Because your body absorbs the sutures of your threads naturally, you can expect to have no unsightly scars after your procedure. For optimal results, smooth threads are placed in a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart. Since our bodies continually break down collagen, you can maintain your progress with a session periodically.
