Threading is a minimally invasive procedure that uses biodegradable absorbable material PDO sutures, to lift and tighten the skin and induce neocollagenesis (new collagen).
The threads completely dissolve in 4-6 months and the results can last between 6-18 months depending upon the gauge (thickness) of the thread.
How Does It Work?
Step 1: Topical and local anesthetic will be applied to the treatment areas.
Step 2: Without cuts or incisions, the threads are inserted under the skin in precise locations using a small hollow needle.
Step 3: With the lifting threads secure, the needle is removed without leaving any scars and the PDO suture remains in the skin slowly causing new collagen growth.
Threads also lift and tighten the skin for immediate results!

Where can the threads be used?
PDO Threads can be used anywhere on the face and body where safe penetration of needles and or blunt-tipped cannulas for delivering threads is possible. Such areas include, but are not limited to Nasolabial Folds, Wrinkles, Forehead, Jawline, Brows, Double Chin, Neck and Nose!
What’s the treatment time?
The treatment time of a thread lifting procedure will vary based on many different factors- the size of the needles used and the type of treatment area. On average, the treatment takes approximately 30 minutes to complete after the application of topical or local anesthesia.
