What is PCL/PDO?

PCL/PDO therapy is an affective cosmetic technique that lifts and tighten sagging skin tissues by including collagen production. It  involves the implantation of fine, absorable polydioxanone threads( similar to those used in medical suturing) into the subcutaneous layer of the skin using small needles. These threads remain implanted in the skin causin micro-injuries that stimulate collagen synthesis and tissue contraction. After six month, the threads will be absorbed into the body leaving new collagen in their place.   

The procedures is usually carried out using local anaesthetic, and takes between 45 and 60 minutes depending on the treatment area. Side effects are minimal but may include swelling and bruising that lasts 2-3 days, and patients can continue with normal activities immediately after.   

PCL/PDO therapy can be used on the cheeks, brow, jawline, neck, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, arms, thighs and abdomen. The lifting effect is at its peak after 6 months when collagen has formed around the threads, and lasts between 2-3 years. 

One of the many advantages of using a blunt-tip Cannula for PCL/PDO thread insertion is that it minimizes the risk of tissue trauma. A Cannula is also longer and more flexible than a needle, so it is easier for the doctor to find clear pathways through tissues with just a single entry point.

As a result, tissue trauma is decreased, and in effect, bruising is lessened and recovery periods are significantly shortened. There are advantages for the patient and the practitioner.
