No matter how many precautions we take, as we age, our skin will inevitably start to show fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging. And in some cases, we may end up looking older than we actually are.
Fortunately, you can age gracefully with the help of aesthetic treatments like PDO threads, a minimally-invasive procedure that can lift and tighten your skin, making you appear younger and healthier.
If you’re after a more defined facial structure sans skin laxity, this article is for you. Read on to know more.
What Are PDO Threads?
In essence, PDO threads are synthetic and absorbable surgical sutures. They are proven to be one of the safest materials implanted into the body.
They vary in length and can either be barbed or smooth, with smooth threads assisting in collagen production and barbed threads offering more noticeable lifting effects. Both serve as a support structure for your face and neck, especially if you want a perfect jawline and address sagging skin.
This minimally-invasive procedure can work wonders in skin rejuvenation by redefining your facial contours and stimulating collagen production. According to studies, the threads are safely absorbed by your body within 4-6 months and you will have a 100% increase in collagen production around the treated areas by the 7th month.
And the best part? These results may last between 8-14 months.
What Are The Benefits of PDO Threads?
If you want a perfect jawline, PDO threads can definitely help, as this treatment aims to redefine the contour of the face and reduce roundness.
Additionally, PDO threads can improve the quality of your skin, reduce wrinkles, and lift sagging skin in the cheeks, jowls, and neck.
In sum, it helps tighten the skin to reduce the obvious signs of aging and help you look younger.
What Happens During the Treatment Proper?
Here’s what you can expect when you come in during your PDO threads appointment here in Munster, IN:
- A local anesthetic will be injected gently into the entry points for the threads. Once the treatment areas are identified, the PDO threads are introduced using a fine microcannula or a delicate needle.
- If you’re after improving your jawline, the threads will be inserted through the lower jaw. They will run along the jawline and will be tied into the lower half of the cheek. Afterward, they are then anchored below the earlobes and adjusted accordingly.
- Depending on your desired outcome, your provider will tighten up your jawline using the inserted threads to achieve that stronger look you desire.
In most cases, the treatment time takes 20-60 minutes.
