THE BENEFITS OF A FACELIFT -
NO SURGERY REQUIRED
PDO Threading
PDO therapy is a cosmetic technique that lifts and tightens sagging skin tissues by inducing collagen production. It involves the implantation of fine, absorbable polydioxanone threads (similar to those used in medical suturing) into the subcutaneous layer of the skin using small needles.
There are many benefits to thread lifting when compared to traditional facelift surgery. First, because thread lifts are much easier to perform than facelift surgery, they are much more affordable. Since it is a non-invasive procedure, the recovery time is extremely short. Most patients experience slight soreness around the area that has been threaded for up to a week after the procedure.
Properly trained medical professionals can use this product and special techniques to provide lift and tightening on areas around the neck and face with excellent results.
The Results Speak For Themselves
See for yourself why patients are opting for this amazing non-invasive procedure.
Threading provides add an immediate tightening effect, and even better results are seen in the following weeks as the threads stimulate collagen production. Because of this, even after the threads have dissolved, the lifting effect remains. Best results are seen at around six weeks post-procedure.
