At Awaken Aesthetics, our PDO Smooth Thread treatment is a game-changer for anyone seeking to rejuvenate their skin without invasive surgery. By delicately placing fine, absorbable threads beneath the skin, we stimulate collagen production, naturally enhancing the skin's elasticity and firmness. This technique offers a pathway to youthfulness with minimal downtime and long-lasting results.
PDO Smooth Thread is a minimally invasive procedure that involves inserting fine, absorbable polydioxanone threads into the skin. This method is designed to lift and tighten sagging skin tissues by inducing collagen production, which revitalizes the skin’s natural structure.
The threads act as a scaffold, holding the skin in place while encouraging the body to heal itself by producing collagen. Over time, these threads dissolve, leaving behind a firmer, more youthful complexion. The process is subtle, enhancing natural beauty without altering facial expressions.
Ideal for combating the signs of aging, PDO Smooth Thread specifically targets fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity. It is particularly effective for areas around the cheeks, jawline, neck, and eyebrows, providing a lifting effect that restores the skin’s natural contours.
Patients can expect to see immediate improvements with results that enhance over time, peaking around six months post-treatment as collagen production continues. Benefits include smoother, firmer skin, and a more youthful appearance with results lasting up to two years.
This treatment is perfect for individuals seeking anti-aging solutions without the commitment to surgery. Ideal candidates are experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity and are looking for a natural-looking lift and rejuvenation. It’s a safe and effective option for most skin types and ages.
The PDO Smooth Thread procedure is designed with patient comfort in mind. A local anesthetic is applied to minimize discomfort, making the experience relatively painless. Patients typically report a feeling of tightness or minor sensation during the insertion but do not consider it painful.
The duration of the PDO Smooth Thread treatment can vary depending on the areas being targeted, but it usually takes between 45 minutes to an hour. This quick turnaround time makes it an ideal "lunchtime procedure," allowing patients to return to their daily activities with minimal downtime.
Recovery time after a PDO Smooth Thread procedure is minimal. Patients may experience mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the treatment sites, but these side effects are typically mild and subside within a few days. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately after the treatment, making it a convenient option for those seeking effective, non-surgical anti-aging solutions.
