PDO threads, also known as Polydioxanone threads, are medical-grade sutures that are skillfully inserted into the skin to lift sagging tissue and stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a protein responsible for maintaining the skin’s elasticity and firmness. As we age, our natural collagen production decreases, leading to sagging skin and the formation of wrinkles. PDO threads work by promoting collagen synthesis, resulting in long-lasting rejuvenation.

During your consultation we will assess your unique needs and develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your specific goals. PDO threads can be used to lift and tighten various areas of the face, including the cheeks, jawline, and eyebrows. They can also be utilised to improve the appearance of the neck and stimulate collagen production in other parts of the body.

The PDO thread procedure is minimally invasive and typically performed under local anesthetic. During the treatment, the threads are inserted into the targeted areas using a fine needle. Once inserted the threads will dissolve over time gradually stimulating local collagen production.

One of the significant advantages of PDO thread treatments is that they require minimal downtime. Most patients can resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure. While some temporary side effects like mild swelling or bruising may occur, they usually subside within 7-10 days.

The results of PDO thread treatments are natural-looking and can last anywhere from six months to a year, depending on various factors such as the individual’s age, lifestyle, and skin condition. Follow-up treatments can be scheduled to maintain and enhance the effects.
