The Benefits of PDO Threads
PDO threads are an excellent treatment option for clients who aren’t ready for a face lift surgery. This non-surgical face lift utilizes monofilament fibers, which dissolve over time, to lift and reposition the skin in order to accentuate the cheeks, diminish the jowls and tighten the jawline.
This medical aesthetic treatment can be combined with Botox, dermal fillers and other injectables to achieve optimal results. The procedure takes 30 minutes or less to perform and the side effects are mild as recovery time is minimal. It takes 4-6 months to fully absorb the sutures as the skin heals/builds collagen.
The benefits of PDO threads include:
- New collagen stimulation
- Increased skin rejuvenation
- Skin lifting and brightened skin tone
- Instant and sustained increase in volume
- Improvement in skin wrinkles for 12 to 18 months
- No surgery and minimal downtime
