FACIAL THREADING

Facial threading is fast becoming one of the most popular aesthetic treatments in the nation. Thread lifting, also referred to as the “Non-surgical Facelift” is the new rave in aesthetics. Although thread lifts have been around for decades, advancements in the threads have allowed us to use this procedure as a minimally invasive alternative to a facelift surgery.

PDO threads are polydioxanone (PDO) sutures that are either smooth or barbed and serve to stimulate collage, replace volume, lift tissue or all of the above. Smooth PDO threads are used to stimulate collagen and replace volume. Smooth threads can generally be used in many areas of the face and body.

Lifting threads are barbed sutures that are inserted beneath the skin that anchor into the fascia then lifted and tightened resulting in repositioning of tissue and collagen stimulation. These two mechanisms of action, allow us to aid in the prevention and correction of loose, sagging skin, and volume depletion. This innovative procedure has allowed us to achieve a younger and refreshed appearance without going under the knife.

Lifting threads can produce very noticeable differences with amazing results, but it does not yield as dramatic results as a surgical facelift. A consultation with one of our expert medical professionals can help determine if PDO thread lifting is the right treatment for you.
