PDO Thread Lift at Hatzipieras Plastic Surgery

The PDO thread lift is a cosmetic treatment that uses threads that are made of Polydioxanone (PDO) to tighten and lift sagging skin tissue. PDO is an absorbable polymer that is durable and flexible for minimally invasive thread lifts. The treatment can address concerns, such as fine lines, wrinkles, jowls, under-eye area, nasojugal folds, and nasolabial folds.  

PDO thread lift is usually carried out on people who wish to rejuvenate the youthful appearance of the face, but do not want to undergo invasive treatments such as a facelift.  

In PDO thread lift, your loose facial skin is not removed surgically. Instead, a cosmetic doctor simply stitches up portions of it using threads to suspend it. Once the threads are placed into the deeper layer of the skin, they produce 3 main effects:

• Skin tightening by contracting fat tissue

• Instant skin lifting through mechanical effects

• Cellular renewal through collagen stimulation to improve the elasticity and textures of the skin. 

Collagen plays a vital role in aging factors. It helps to keep our skin voluminous, strong, and supple. Therefore, collagen stimulation that PDO thread lift offers can help you combat aging.
