What Are PDO Threads?

At Cure Med Spa, our PDO threads are of the highest grade for the best results. They are thin and protein-based, similar to other PDO threads. When inserted into specific parts of the skin, PDO threads function to tighten and lift the skin while also promoting collagen production.

PDO threads are used for non-surgical facelifts, neck lifts, and brow lifts in addition to facial contouring and enhancing drooping skin on other regions of the body. The minimally-invasive procedure will be carried out in our clinic and requires little to no recovery time.

In addition, the effects of PDO threads may last anywhere from a few months to a year, and the threads gradually disappear into the body, leaving just the fresh collagen left.

How Do PDO Threads Work?

PDO Threads in Connecticut are biodegradable sutures or threads that are inserted underneath the skin’s surface to support and lift the skin tissue in the treatment area. Each thread is inserted one at a time until it reaches the endpoint where it is tugged to provide the desired effect. When the threads are injected into the skin, they trigger a natural healing reaction that causes new collagen to be created in the treated area.

The skin is tightened and firmed by the newly generated collagen surrounding the PDO threads, giving it a more youthful look. Over time, as the body absorbs the PDO threads, they leave behind a fresh supply of collagen. This helps to steadily improve the results and enhance your appearance over the following few months.

Candidates for PDO Thread Lifts

PDO Threads in Connecticut are appropriate for a broad variety of individuals because of how minimally invasive they are. But for the greatest outcomes, thread lifts are often suggested for patients who are still relatively young, such as those in their 30s and 40s, who are just beginning to notice some loss of elasticity in their skin and do not yet have significant drooping or sagging but are looking for facial contouring and a lifted appearance.

PDO Threads FAQs

How long does a PDO thread lift last?

A PDO thread lift typically lasts between 12 to 18 months. The threads are made of polydioxanone (PDO), a biodegradable material that gradually dissolves in the body, stimulating collagen production. As the threads dissolve, they continue to support the skin, providing a prolonged lifting effect even after they are no longer present. Book a consultation to see if PDO Threads in Connecticut are right for you.

What is the cost of a PDO thread lift?

The cost of a PDO thread lift depends on factors such as the treatment area and the number of threads used. On average, prices can range from $1,500 to $4,500. Please schedule your consultation to get an accurate estimate tailored to your specific needs and desired outcomes.

What are the downsides of PDO thread lifts?

While PDO thread lifts are generally safe, some potential downsides include swelling, bruising, and temporary discomfort at the insertion sites. Rarely, there might be complications such as infection, thread migration, or asymmetry. It’s crucial to have the procedure done by an experienced practitioner to minimize these risks.

What are the types of PDO threads?

There are three main types of PDO threads in Connecticut: mono, cog, and screw threads. Mono threads are smooth and primarily used for skin tightening. Cog threads have barbs that hook into the skin, providing a better lift. Screw threads are intertwined and provide volume to sunken areas. Each type serves different purposes and can be used in combination for optimal results.

How many sessions of PDO threads do I need?

The number of PDO thread sessions needed depends on individual goals and the extent of skin laxity. Most patients see significant improvement with a single session. However, follow-up treatments might be recommended to maintain and enhance results.
