Thread Lift for Face, Neck & Body
Are you suffering from early signs of jowls and skin laxity, but don’t want to commit to a full surgical facelift?
Beauty Bar & Medspa has a solution for you!!
If you are looking to correct lines, wrinkles and other signs of aging skin, PDO thread lifts may be the perfect procedure for you. If you experience sagging skin under the chin and near the cheeks, PDO threads may be especially effective and beneficial for you.
Have you noticed sagging along your jawline or under your eyes? If so, getting a PDO thread lift may be a perfect solution for you.
Thread Lift is one the most effective ways to lift the loose skin without surgery. As we age, the effects of gravity become more noticeable on our faces, especially as our facial support structure weakens and we lose facial fat. The areas that are generally affected are the eyebrows, areas around the eyes, the cheeks, the jowls and the neck. The result is a longer, more square-shaped and older-looking face.
Traditionally, most people would look into plastic surgery to get a facelift as there weren’t very effective noninvasive treatments to lift the loose skin. However, now there is an effective nonsurgical option that can lift and contour and suspend the sagging tissues on the face, neck and the body, especially for those that need only minimal to moderate rejuvenation or for those that do not wish to undergo surgical intervention.
Polydioxanone (PDO) threads are special medical grade threads that are thinner than hair and made of protein. PDO threads are biodegradable and dissolve after 6-9 months, but their effects can last up to 2 years thanks to the stimulation of new collagen. Threads stimulate collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid formation that remains long after they have dissolved, helping to maintain smooth, firm, supple skin texture.
A PDO Thread Lift is a minimally invasive procedure that tightens the skin. Unlike most facelift procedures, there are no big incisions required. Instead, PDO thread lifting uses small needles to insert fine threads under the skin. These threads are especially designed to anchor sagging skin and lift it upwards. The threads also stimulate collagen production, helping to further diminish the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
As we age, gravity begins to take its toll, creating jowls, folds, and an overall aging effect. To make it worse, our bodies often lose the fat that gives our faces defined features, and our support structures aren’t as strong as before.
Fortunately, there are quick, non-surgical options to turn back the clock. A thread lift can address issues of sagging without any downtime and with minimal discomfort.
What Is PDO Threading?
PDO threading originated from the ancient practice of acupuncture, which involves the strategic placement of needles to realign the body’s energy and address a variety of health concerns. Although it evolved from medical treatment, thread lift therapy is primarily a cosmetic procedure. Its primary purpose is to tighten sagging skin, thereby giving you a more youthful appearance.
For the past 15 years, PDO threading has been used to treat a range of areas:
- Neck
- Jawline
- Marionette lines
- Naso-labial folds
- Forehead
- Upper and lower cheeks
This treatment isn’t limited to the face; it can tighten skin on the abdomen, arms, and buttocks as well.
When Can PDO Threads be Used?
Threads can be placed in the forehead to lift the brows and also in the temple area to pull the skin and give the “foxy eyes” look. We used threads in the cheeks to soften the smile lines especially when patients don’t want to put filler in the area. We can use it in the lower face to lift and contour the jawline. A thread lift can also be used in the neck but often required multiple threads and sometimes multiple sessions to get the best result. Threads can be placed in the body as well, and although they don’t give the same results as the face, often a few sessions are required to see significant improvement.
Are Threads Large or Small?
Large threads are used for lifting the skin as described above, while small threads are thin hair-like threads that you can use to build volume or structural support anywhere. Many times small threads are used in the smile lines to build volume by stimulating collagen. In addition, these can be used in combination with large threads to give additional support to the skin in the face, neck, jawline, and even in the body. The skin above the knees is particularly popular for small threads, improves creepy skin, and gives skin more support.
How Long Does a Thread Lift Last?
Large and small threads are placed under the skin using local anesthesia, they begin to breakdown or dissolve after 6 months. Results last approximately 1 year.
The PDO thread lift is a painless procedure.
What to Expect After PDO Thread Lift Treatment?
After the treatment, some swelling is expected and is the greatest after 2-3 days then goes down. We will usually send the patient with a compression garment to minimize swelling. Swelling is usually mild but may be moderate in some areas such as the forehead. Bruising is rare but can happen. The threads are on a cannula, so they are less likely to cause bruising. The area may be sore to touch and also sore with some facial expressions or movements.
