PDO Threads
PDO Thread Lift in Chattanooga, Tennessee
Utilizing threads composed of polydioxanone, a PDO thread lift is a non-surgical treatment designed to lift and tighten saggy skin. Once the medical-grade thread is inserted deep into the tissue, sagging skin is instantly lifted.
In addition to achieving an instantly visible lift and tighter skin, the threads also stimulate collagen. Over the course of 3-6 months, the added boost of cellular regeneration improves the texture of the skin and lessens the appearance of fine lines.
Unlike an invasive, surgical lift, with PDO threads, there are no visible incisions or scarring to worry about it. The procedure itself only takes around 45 minutes to complete, and you can leave the clinic within minutes of completing your treatment.
While there is virtually no downtime associated with this procedure, there may be visible swelling and bruising present for a few days following your thread lift.
How long do PDO Threads last?
Through the process of hydrolysis, the polydioxanone threads dissolve after six months. However, as a result of the boosted collagen and neovascularization, the improved facial contour can last up to two years.
