Screw PDO Face Lifting Thread

PDO thread lifting is a treatment aiming at tightening and lifting the skin. While Botox injections mainly focus on softening unwanted lines and filler treatment restores volume only PDO threads are able to physically lift up skin that has lost its elasticity.

The letters PDO refer to Polydioxanone, This has been used as surgical suture material since 1970 and has an excellent safety record. It breaks down entirely after about 6-8 months. When it was discovered that the body produces collagen alongside PDO sutures its potential in aesthetic medicine became evident. Today we use threads attached to fine needles to place them under the skin in a mesh-like fashion. The body generates vast amounts of new collagen along the threads which leads to impressive tightening of the skin. Deep lines, folds and saggy skin can be treated without the need for surgery. In recent years barbed threads have been introduced which allow an immediate lifting effect upon placement.

It is effective in self-stimulation of cell to create collagen and elastic. It will be fully dissolved in the body. This is biodegradable, biocompatible, safe and dissolved in the body.

PDO (Polydioxanone) thread is a thread with no cones, thus no damage to the tissue. This has been widely used in medicine as subcutaneous sutures, and thus it is very safe.
