PDO Thread Face Lift In Colchester, Essex

PDO Thread Face Lift

Thread Lift is a non-surgical thread facelift procedure that lifts and smooths the skin on your Face, Neck or Jowls. Fine threads are inserted into the skin enabling your practitioner to pull the skin tighter whilst the process also stimulates the natural production of collagen to further enhance results.

PDO Thread Lifting gives you a significantly younger, firmer appearance to the areas of the face that require rejuvenation.

Thread Lifting is a revolutionary non-surgical face lift threading technique that offers you the results of a surgical facelift without the pain, recovery time or risks associated with traditional cosmetic surgery.

The “threads” are inserted under the skin’s surface into the sub-dermis during the PDO thread face lift procedure. These tiny threads are barbed and anchor to the skin, keeping the lift in place to create a smoother and tighter appearance. Made from PDO (Polydioxanone), they also stimulate a significant collagen production response.

The Non-Surgical PDO Thread lift gives skin back its strength and elasticity providing you with a noticeably younger firmer looking appearance.

Are all PDO threads the same?

No, however all threads are made from the same material, but they have different properties which contribute to the results wanting to be achieved. For example, COG threads have small barbs along the full length of them, which create a mechanical lift through the tissues. Mono threads are completely straight and smooth, they mainly tighten the skin. Screw threads are two or more threads entwined around each-other, ideal for creating volume.

How long does a PDO thread lift procedure take?

Anywhere between 15mins-45mins.

Does a PDO thread lift hurt?

The procedure itself is minimally invasive, the area is numbed with lidocaine injections prior to the treatment. The treatment is comfortable to have done.

What side effects can I expect after a PDO thread lift?

Swelling and bruising is very common with this treatment. The area will be tender and tight. It takes 4-6 weeks to full settle.

How long does it take to see results and how long do they last?

Results will be seen straight away; however, it takes up to 3 months to see maximum results as the threads induce the collagen production which happens gradually over time. It takes approximately 6 months for the threads to fully absorb through hydrolysis, results can last up to 2 years.
