All About PDO Threads: The Non-Surgical Approach to Skin Tightening

February 13, 2024

At Shmily Aesthetics, we strive to stay at the forefront of cutting-edge aesthetic treatments. One such procedure is the Polydioxanone (PDO) thread lift, a non-surgical facelift option that has quickly gained popularity for its impressive results and minimal invasiveness. This post will walk you through all you need to know about PDO threads and how they can transform your skin.


What Are PDO Threads?

Polydioxanone, or PDO threads, have been used in medical procedures for years due to their safety and biocompatibility. Initially used in surgeries, these dissolvable threads have found their way into the cosmetic world, notably for non-surgical facelifts. They are directly inserted into the skin using thin needles to lift sagging skin and promote collagen production for lasting firmness.


Benefits of PDO Thread Lift

Assuredly, a PDO thread lift comes with numerous benefits. Not only does it provide an immediate lift, but it also stimulates collagen production for long-term skin tightening and rejuvenation. It is minimally invasive, involves little to no downtime, and leaves no scarring. Furthermore, it's an excellent choice for those seeking a less drastic alternative to surgical facelifts.


Ideal Candidates for PDO Thread Lift

Individuals experiencing moderate skin laxity are ideal candidates for a PDO thread lift. The procedure can efficiently address sagging cheeks, jowls, necklines, and even brow lines while promoting natural-looking results. However, during your consultation at Shmily Aesthetics, our specialists will assess your skin condition and discuss if this treatment is suitable for you.


Procedure and Aftercare

The beauty of a PDO thread lift is its simplicity. Numbing cream is applied before the procedure to ensure comfort throughout. Then, our trained aestheticians use precise techniques to insert the threads, which immediately lift the skin.


Post-procedure, patients can return to their normal routines but should avoid strenuous activities and direct sunlight for a few days.
