PDO Threads are biodegradable, polydioxanone (PDO) sutures, which dissolve in the body over time.

Once inserted, the polydioxanone suture will be absorbed by the body over time, approximately around 6 to 7 months. Results typically last 12 months.

By stimulating the body’s natural immune response, PDO Threads stimulate the production of collagen, resulting in restored skin elasticity and skin cell regeneration. This can help to improve the appearance of fine lines, skin laxity and jowling.

A thread lift works best when the face is treated as a whole, however the individual areas that can be treated are:

• Upper and lower cheeks
• Forehead
• Eyebrows
• Neck
• Jawline
• Mouth lines
• Smoker’s lines
• Crow’s feet
• Marionette lines
• Nasolabial folds
• Under-eyes

We will often combine our thread lift procedures with different treatments such as dermal fillers and anti-wrinkle treatment.

Thread lift treatment is a minimally invasive procedure that is performed by our cosmetic doctors.

Patient suitability will be determined by your Practitioner. As PDO Threads can be used to address a variety of aesthetic concerns, they can be suitable for many different age groups.

PDO Threads can not be used on clients who have Diabetes Mellitus with complications of Dermal Necrosis. Other contraindications will be determined by your Practitioner.
