PDO Thread Lift in Apex, NC

What is a PDO Thread Lift?

PDO Thread Lift Apex, NC

As the body ages, the skin loosens and sags, including that on the forehead, eyes, and lips. Unfortunately, this can cause your face to look older than your real age. Thankfully, there is a treatment available that can help your skin regain what has been lost during the aging process.

Originating in South Korea, the PDO Thread Lift is a minimally-invasive treatment which uses threads made of Polydioxanone (PDO) to lift and tighten loose and sagging facial skin. The treatment can remove or reduce wrinkles and improve the skin's texture, creating smoother and younger-looking skin.

Who is a Good Candidate for a PDO Thread Lift?

A PDO Thread Lift is best suited for someone who is between 40-70 years of age who has wrinkles and pronounced facial lines that make them look older than they really are. It is also well-suited for individuals who:

  • Have minimal signs of aging
  • Are looking for alternative fillers that are more effective and long-lasting
  • Wishes to avoid surgery, general anesthetic, or undergo prolonged recovery
  • Have had some relapse from a previous plastic surgery procedure, like a facelift or neck lift

PDO Thread Lift Procedure

The PDO Thread Lift procedure will usually take about 15-30 minutes. During your appointment with the healthcare specialist, you will first be given a topical anesthetic to reduce any possible pain, and the injection sites on your face will be marked with a white pencil.

The areas of the face that the treatment can be used on include:

  • Top and bottom eyelid
  • Crow's feet
  • Forehead
  • The top lip
  • Eyebrows
  • Nasolabial folds, or smile lines
  • Marionette lines in the corner of your mouth
  • Upper Cheeks
  • Jowl

The specialist will then make a tiny entry in the skin near your ear, and a needle (cannula) will hold and guide the thread through the entry point and into the different layers of your skin. This process will be done several times until your desired results are achieved.

PDO Thread Lift: Results and Recovery

There may be some slight bruising and swelling due to the injections. However, recovery from the procedure takes only 2-3 days to a week, and you can return to work the same day. Due to its non-invasive nature, the procedure will not leave behind any scars. However, you should avoid any dental work for about 2 weeks afterward, and strenuous activity for 2-3 weeks afterward. Contact your healthcare provider if you experience more serious - though rare - side effects, such as an infection or nerve damage.

The PDO threading provides instant results, with optimum results appearing after about 3 months. The PDO threads will stimulate your skin cells, and cause new collagen and blood vessels to form around the threads. Also, the threads cause the fat tissue to contract, tightening the skin on the face. The results of this tightening and rejuvenation process include:

  • A reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Younger and firmer-looking skin
  • Improved blood circulation
  • Improved skin tone, texture, pigmentation, and scarring
  • Increased skin metabolism
  • Activation of the lymphatic circulation
  • Brightened skin

After about 6-8 months, the PDO threads will harmlessly dissolve, but they will leave behind a prolonged rejuvenation effect that will last about 2-3 years.
