PDO Threads Berks County, PA

What is PDO Thread Lift?

PDO thread lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses sutures to “stitch” the skin, tightening and lifting the face. This triggers the skin cells in our body to stimulate collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production in the treatment areas, making your skin taut, bright, and voluminous.

The procedure can be used to treat aging concerns on the face — and the neck, by default, and is a good option for anyone who’s not medically cleared for facelift surgeries.

Is It Effective?

Yes — but it is temporary.

While you’ll see improvements in skin tone, texture, and firmness almost immediately, complete results will unfold once the threads get completely absorbed into your body.

This can take around 6 months, and the results will last between 1-3 years, varying from person to person based on age, aftercare, diet, and hydration.

Does It Hurt?

The thought of piercing your skin with needles and then tightening them to lift your skin can seem scary, but PDO threads are one of the least traumatic forms of facelift. You’ll be given local anesthesia to minimize any risk of pain and discomfort.

But you’re likely have some redness, soreness, bruising, and swelling for 24-48 hours post the procedure. These after effects will subside on their own.

What About Safety?

PDO threads have FDA clearances, so they’re safe for anyone with good health. However, it’s not recommended for those who have diabetes, autoimmune disorders, skin conditions, or cold sores. Pregnant and breastfeeding mamas should steer clear of getting PDO Threads too.

Are There Any Risks or Side Effects?

PDO threads are low risk, though you may experience minor side effects for the first two weeks after surgery. Applying ice and cold compress can go a long way to aid recovery.

Apart from that, there are very few cases where patients experience long-lasting bruising, bleeding, infection, difficulty opening the mouth, pain, sensitivity, swelling, and snapping of sutures.

To stay on the safe side, get it done from a certified professional at the Lords & Ladies Salon and Medical Spa.

How Long Does It Take to Recover?

PDO threads are not particularly invasive, and most people are able to get back to work on the same day —that’s why it’s called a “lunchtime lift”. However, since you’ll have some pain and discomfort, you may want to take it easy for the first week.

And if you want your results to last, stay on top of the aftercare instructions given by the professional administering the service.
