PDO

Thread Lift

Have you ever stood in the mirror and pushed your cheeks upward to tighten your face? The result is a firmer, younger, tauter face and jowl line, somewhat similar to the results you might expect from a traditional facelift. Ever wonder why this can’t be done without intensive surgery, maybe with a magic, invisible thread beneath the surface of your skin? Well, you’re onto something! Thanks to PDO thread lift technology, it’s now possible to achieve this taut facial appearance without a major invasive surgery.

Are PDO Threads Painful?

A local anesthetic may be applied to the area to make the procedure as comfortable as possible, but some patients may find this procedure painful. Some tenderness after the procedure is to be expected. Talk to our team about your concerns, and we will help create a treatment plan that works for you.

Do PDO Threads Require Downtime?

Simply answered, no, PDO threads should not require significant downtime. The procedure is done at our state-of-the-art facility in Newport Beach, and you can go home the same day. Recovery after a successful thread lift is quite minimal. While there may be some visible swelling and bruising for a couple of weeks, you can go back to work right away if you’d like. You are encouraged to avoid strenuous exercising for a few weeks following the procedure.

Thread Face Lift

PDO, which stands for polydioxanone, is a synthetic suture, or thread, that’s inserted into the skin to fight gravity and pull skin in a desired direction. Not only do the threads help tighten and lift skin, but the thread’s chemical properties double up on anti-gravity effects by stimulating new collagen production in and around the procedural site. The result is a lifted and more fully contoured skin area, a facelift without the complications, costs, and extended recovery time associated with a traditional surgical facelift.

Our Orange County patients have long turned to the expertise at Panacea Aesthetics, and we are happy to provide this anti-aging service. Schedule your consultation today, and let’s work together on making your face young, vibrant, and beautiful.

What is a PDO Thread Lift?

PDO threads have long been used safely for various surgical medical procedures, applying similar technology to general medicine stitches that dissolve after the surface wound heals. Now, however, we’ve harnessed these thread’s potential for use in the aesthetic world.

First, the threads are inserted through micro-incisions into your face, resulting in instant skin lifting. Second, they contract fat tissue to further tighten your skin. Third, they promote collagen production and neovascularization to renew your skin at the cellular level. All of this works together to give you enhanced skin texture, fewer fine lines and wrinkles, and more elastic skin.

WHAT AREAS DO PDO THREADS TIGHTEN?

Our Orange County patients usually use PDO thread lifts to address:

  • Jowls
  • Nasolabial folds and marionette lines
  • Neck & jaw line definition
  • Brow lift and opening the eye

How Long Do PDO Thread Results Last?

PDO threads are designed to naturally dissolve into your skin, providing stimulation at the cellular level by boosting collagen production. They tend to dissolve in 6 to 9 months, though the effects will last longer. Most patients can expect to see results lasting for up to 18 months or even two years.

What’s a PDO Thread Procedure Like?

This procedure usually takes around an hour. After applying topical anesthetic on the skin, a thin needle will be inserted into your skin to place the threads in the appropriate areas. This process can take between 30 and 45 minutes, depending on the specific patient. After threads are inserted and the threading needle is removed, you may feel light pressure or tightening under your skin. This is normal. After the procedure is complete, you will be free to go on with your day.
