WHAT IS A POLYDIOXANONE (PDO) THREAD LIFT
A THREAD LIFT is a procedure that
uses a dissolvable suture to tighten and lift your skin. It's a less invasive
procedure than FACELIFT SURGERY which can often be completed in less than
an hour without needing to go under a scalpel or surgery.
Also known as a
Vampire lift or Cat eye, it is a non-surgical technique that lifts and sculpts
the contour of your face
Polydioxanone
(PDO) thread lifts use a biodegradable polyester suture. They're best suited
for rejuvenating your skin, while some newer types of thread lifts are better
at lifting baggy or drooping skin.
The
average thread lift candidate is in their late thirties to early fifties. The
favorable impact of a thread lift may be most beneficial to someone in good
health which is just starting to see the symptoms of aging.
A thread lift is suitable for someone
who can not undergo a surgical facelift due to medical conditions. General
anesthesia wouldn't be appropriate, so a thread lift is the best option
Let's look at what makes a PDO thread
lift different from other thread lifts and what you can expect during the
procedure.
