Threads
A thread lift is a technique that uses thin threads of polydioxanone (PDO) inserted under the skin to reposition tissue and stimulate collagen production to increase volume. Thread lifts can be used to treat specific areas, or they can be “weaved” to stimulate more volume and create a more youthful look in larger areas. The threads dissolve over time, but they leave in their place smoother, fresher, younger-looking skin.
PDO threads are FDA-approved and are safe with mild to no side effects.
Thread lifts do not produce as dramatic results as a surgical facelift, but can provide noticeable differences. These targeted treatments alone or in combination with other treatments may help you resolve specific issues of concern. An evaluation by our knowledgeable staff can help you make an informed decision on whether a thread lift is right for you. The age of the typical Thread Lift patient is from about 30 to 55.
Thread Lift for Brows
A thread lift is a technique that uses thin threads of polydioxanone (PDO) inserted under the skin to g reposition tissue and stimulate collagen production to increase volume. PDO threads are FDA approved, with few or no side effects.
For a brow lift, PDO threads are positioned in the forehead to lift the brow and eye area. The threads dissolve over time and leave in their place smoother, fresher, younger-looking skin.
What To Expect During Treatment
Before your treatment, your trained nurse will complete an assessment of the area to be treated, and create a personalized treatment plan, targeting the areas you want to enhance. During the treatment, you will be given a local anesthetic. The PDO threads will then be precisely inserted under the skin, with sutures that begin the lifting process. The procedure takes about 45 minutes (sometimes longer, depending on the area treated). After a brief recovery period, you can drive yourself home.
After the treatment, you’ll be given a care plan during the healing process. There may be some initial redness and soreness. Avoid scrubbing the treated area too hard, and you may need to avoid moisturizers for a while. You may also need to be careful about putting pressure on the treated area for a few days.
What Are The Results Of Treatment?
In some cases, when threads are used to create definition, you may begin seeing results in a few days as the healing process begins. Since the treatment also relies on collagen production, you’ll see more results in the weeks afterward.
A thread lift does not provide the same amount of “lift” as a surgical procedure, but it can make a significant difference, especially in targeting areas of treatment. A thread lift may be used in conjunction with other treatments for optimum results. For example, a thread lift doesn’t address pigmentation from aging, so other treatments can complement its effects.
