PDO & PLA Thread-Lift - FUNDAMENTALS

Service Description

A non-surgical thread lift is a procedure that uses a dissolvable suture to tighten and lift skin. It’s a less invasive procedure than facelift surgery and can often be performed in under 1 hour without needing to go under a scalpel. Polydioxanone (PDO) thread lifts use a biodegradable polyester suture. They’re best suited for rejuvenating the skin while some newer types of thread lifts are better at lifting sagging skin. PDO threads are one of three types of sutures commonly used in thread lift procedures. The other two types are made from polylactic acid (PLA) and polycaprolactone (PCA). PDO threads have been around the longest of the three and have been used in surgeries since the 1980s. They’re made from a colorless polyester that breaks down in the body after about 6-8 months. The presence of these sutures in the skin triggers cells in the body called fibroblasts to produce more collagen. Collagen is the protein that gives skin its structure and elasticity. Loss of collagen is one of the main causes of aging skin. PDO threads can be further divided into three categories: PDO mono threads. Smooth sutures help rejuvenate skin by stimulating collagen production. PDO cog threads. These threads have barbs that latch into the skin like small fishhooks, to provide support and lift parts of the face. PDO screw threads. Made up of one or two intertwined threads, these are used to help restore volume to sunken parts of the skin. Other types of threads PLA and PCA threads are newer than PDO. They last longer in the body and tend to stimulate more collagen production. PLA threads take about 12 months to be absorbed and PCA takes about 12 to 15 months. Each type of thread is best suited for a particular function. PDO threads are better at repositing and revitalizing tissue while PLA and PCA threads are better at lifting sagging parts of the skin.
