PDO Thread Lift
A PDO thread lift is an innovative treatment in the world of aesthetics,Firstly, for its mechanical results in instant skin lifting. Secondly, it contracts fat tissue to result in instant skin tightening. Third, it promotes collagen production and neovascularization to renew your skin at the cellular level. All of these benefits work together to give you enhanced skin texture, fewer fine lines and wrinkles and more elastic skin.
PDO Threads
PDO threads are surgical threads made from Polydioxanone.
The PDO (Polydioxanone) threads consist of monofilament fibers (sutures) constructed of one wisp and have a uniform surface without recesses or furrows which reduces the chance of bacterial growth. The Threads pass through tissues very smoothly, eliminating possible structural damage during implantation. The dissolution of the Thread takes approximately 180 – 210 day’s post insertion.
PDO (Polydioxanone) produces fibrosis in the surrounding tissue, giving rise to the creation of type I and II collagen.
PDO Threads implanted into skin stimulate the fibroblasts currently present and also increase the production of new fibroblasts. The increased fibroblastic activity markedly improves the production of skin proteins such as collagen and elastin. Stimulation of collagen and elastin creates greater support for sagging skin which ultimately increases skin density and firmness. In addition, there is an increase in general skin quality.

What happens to the embedded threads?
After implantation, the body absorbs the threads over a period of 6 to 8 months via biological (enzymatic) degradation or hydrolysis. This will eventually result in the formation of water and carbon dioxide both of which are naturally excreted from the body.
The threads produce limited and localised inflammation.
The threads produce an increase in collagen in the skin and although some of the effects appear immediately, maximum results can be expected 4 to 6 months following the implantation.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The treatment improves skin laxity, reduces pore size and enhances overall skin tone. It can stimulate the hypodermis, which increases the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic (HA), while accelerating skin metabolism. PDO threads can also produce collagen regeneration accerlates over time, improving appearance of wrinkles and folds, enhancing elasticity and brightening the patients complexion of ageing skin.
The results from PDO thread treatment can last up to 18 months depending on patients medical conditions, skin type, age, lifestyle and other factors.
The PDO thread treatment is ideal for men and women age 30 or above.
The initial results from PDO threads show a significant growth in collagen in as little as 30 days.
The PDO thread treatment results will depend on the patients age, lifestyle, medical background and skin quality. You will notice some visible results immediately after treatment, however results will improve over a period of two to six weeks as the PDO thread start to stimulate the body’s natural ability to produce new collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid (HA).
The PDO thread treatment is performed by a medically trained practitioner and the procedure lasts between 30 minutes to 2 hours.
