ABOUT PDO THREAD LIFTING
PDO (Polydioxanone) thread lifting is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to lift and tighten sagging skin while stimulating collagen production for a more youthful appearance. PDO threads are biodegradable sutures inserted into the skin to provide support and lift targeted areas, creating a subtle but noticeable improvement in skin texture, elasticity, and tone.
PDO threads dissolve naturally over time, leaving behind a framework of collagen to maintain the results. The procedure is commonly used to address areas such as the face, neck, jawline, and even certain parts of the body.
