Everything you need to know about PDO Mono Threads

Introducing our highly anticipated, new injectables treatment – PDO Mono Threads!

This non-surgical facelifting and tightening treatment helps to stimulate collagen production, increase elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and saggy skin. Here are some frequently asked questions about PDO Mono Threads and what to expect during and after your treatment.

What are PDO Mono Threads?

PDO Mono Threads are small absorbable polydioxanone (PDO) threads that are placed beneath the surface of the skin to provide a gentle lift and skin tightening effect.

How do they work?

The PDO thread insertion stimulates natural collagen production around the threads, visibly tightening the skin and reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, smile lines and saggy skin.

What are the benefits?

PDO Mono Threads have a multitude of benefits including;

• Skin tightening & lifting
• Increasing collagen production
• Lifted cheeks
• A more defined jawline
• Facial contour
• Softer smile lines

How long do results last ?

PDO Mono Threads create a tightening effect that can last up to 12 months after your treatment.

Is it painful?

The treatment is pain-free as the registered nurse/practitioner will apply a topical anaesthetic numbing cream at least 30 minutes prior to treatment to ensure there is no discomfort during treatment.

Is there any downtime?

Similar to most injectable treatments, there may be some bruising or swelling which usually subsides within a few days.

How many treatments do I need?

Results can be seen after one treatment. A second treatment may be recommended after 6-8 months, depending on the treatment area and skin type to maintain the tightening effects.

How long does the treatment take?

The treatment only takes 15-30mins depending on the treatment area. Following treatment, you can resume your daily routine.
