PDO Threading: Create a Naturally Youthful Look
With the arrival of June in Alabama, many are looking for ways to refresh their appearance and feel as radiant as the summer season. At Infinity Med-I-Spa, we’re pleased to offer a treatment to help you achieve that: PDO threading. Our experienced team of highly trained doctors provides this simple, highly customizable, and FDA-cleared procedure to help you reach your aesthetic goals with beautifully natural results.
Understanding PDO Threading
So, what exactly is PDO threading? Imagine a subtle yet significant lift and rejuvenation achieved without the need for invasive surgery. PDO threads are dissolvable sutures made from polydioxanone (PDO), a biocompatible material used safely in surgical procedures for decades. During a PDO thread lift, these threads are strategically inserted beneath the skin using fine needles. Think of it as creating a supportive scaffolding that gently lifts sagging skin and stimulates the body’s natural collagen production.
The Benefits of PDO Threading
One of the key benefits of PDO threading is its versatility. The treatment can address various areas of concern, including:
- Lifting sagging cheeks and jowls: Restore a more defined jawline and youthful contour.
- Reducing nasolabial folds and marionette lines: Soften those lines around the mouth and nose for a smoother appearance.
- Elevating the brows: Achieve a subtle yet noticeable brow lift, opening the eyes.
- Tightening the neck: Address mild to moderate neck laxity and improve the appearance of fine lines.
Beyond the immediate lifting effect, PDO threads offer a significant long-term advantage: collagen stimulation. As the threads gradually dissolve over several months, they encourage your body to produce new collagen, a vital protein that provides structure and elasticity to the skin. This natural collagenesis contributes to continued improvement in skin firmness, texture, and overall radiance long after the threads have disappeared. To enhance these benefits and maintain skin’s hydration and plumpness, consider incorporating products like Skin Medica‘s HA⁵® Hydra Collagen Replenish + Restore Hydrator into your skincare routine.
Considering PDO Threads? Here’s What You Need to Know
For those considering PDO threading, it’s important to have a clear understanding of what to expect. The procedure is minimally invasive and typically takes between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the areas treated. Most individuals experience minimal discomfort, and any mild swelling or bruising that may occur usually subsides within a few days. There is typically no significant downtime, allowing you to return to normal activities relatively quickly.
The results of PDO threading are often visible immediately, with continued improvement over the following weeks and months as collagen production increases. While not a replacement for surgical facelifts, PDO threads offer a noticeable yet natural-looking rejuvenation that can last 12 to 18 months, or even longer for some individuals. The longevity of the results is influenced by factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and the number of threads used.
