What are PDO Facial Threads?

Absorbable PDO facial threads represent the latest trend in non-surgical skin lifting and tightening, specifically for areas of mild skin laxity on the face and neck.

In facial lifting procedures, these threads are inserted subcutaneously through tiny incisions, creating a supportive mesh while stimulating fibroblasts to promote the production of collagen and elastin. This technique can effectively reduce wrinkles on the forehead, glabellar lines, crow’s feet, cheeks, and neck, as well as improve facial contours. The result is a rejuvenated and less fatigued appearance. The procedure is quick, simple, and virtually painless, taking about 20-30 minutes with either local anesthesia or none at all, allowing patients to return immediately to their daily activities.

The threads are absorbed over a period of 6 months, minimizing complications and ensuring a natural aesthetic result. The number and size of the threads are customized based on the degree of skin laxity and the areas being treated. Thread lifting is often combined with other non-invasive techniques, such as injectable botulinum toxin, hyaluronic acid fillers, or stem cell treatments, to achieve optimal aesthetic results.

Although PDO facial threads can be applied to other areas of the body (such as the buttocks, thighs, abdomen, chest, and arms), more time is needed to establish them as a reliable technique. However, it’s important to note that the results from PDO facial threads cannot replace surgical procedures, such as a traditional facelift, in terms of longevity and overall outcome, according to Plastic Surgeon Aris Damagas.
