PDO Threads Douglassville, PA

All You Need to Know About PDO Threads

A polydioxanone (PDO) thread lift is a less invasive alternative to facelift surgery. It works by inserting biodegradable, dissolvable sutures in the treatment area, producing a smooth lift that combats skin sagging and wrinkling. This triggers an inflammatory response, causing your body to make more collagen. In turn, your skin benefits from more structure, strength, and elasticity on a cellular level.

Since it only takes 30 to 45 minutes while being minimally invasive, you can easily squeeze it in during the week.

Treatment Areas

A PDO thread lift can treat almost every part of your face, including cheeks, crow’s feet, eyebrows, eyes, jaw, jowls, neck, under-eye areas, and so on.

Eligibility

PDO threads are approved by the FDA, so anybody experiencing loss of facial volume, sagging, or wrinkling can get it without going under the knife. But if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, have a skin infection or condition, are suffering from an autoimmune disease, or have diabetes, be sure to talk to your doctor beforehand.

Improvements in Skin (Duration)

While you will see an instant improvement in the appearance of your skin, particularly areas with fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging, more pronounced results will take time. This is because your body takes 4 to 12 weeks to produce new collagen around the sutures.

The recovery process peaks after 6 months, so be sure to discuss your goals with your treatment provider. Ask how many sessions you’ll need to maintain the results.

Recovery

Because it’s a minimally invasive procedure, there’s little to no downtime or special aftercare involved. There may be some minor bruising and swelling initially, but that should subside in no time. Apart from that, you’re advised to:

• Sleep on your back with your head propped on a pillow for a couple of days.
• Cancel any dental appointments within four weeks of the procedure.
• Avoid intense activities that cause you to sweat for at least 48 hours.

And yes, avoid rubbing your face, as that could dislodge the threads.

Risks

PDO threads may be a minimally invasive facelift procedure, but there are risks of complications because it’s done with surgical sutures. That’s why it’s important to get them done by trained professionals such as certified nurse injectors to avoid scarring, severe bruising, bleeding, abscesses, and other bacterial complications.
