Thread lifting

Thread lift with PDO (Polydioxanone)

PDO is a material that has been used for years in vascular and cardiac surgery. The threads are pulled in with a thin needle to which the threads are attached. These threads cause a “biostimulation” in the skin. Around the thread, cells are stimulated to form tissue and new collagen is formed. The skin volume increases and there is a tightening and lifting effect. The result is visible after 4 – 8 weeks.

The PDO threads are available in different designs and lengths: single threads, spiral threads, double spiral threads, barbed threads. Your skin condition, the body region and the treatment goal ultimately determine the choice of the thread. Which threads are best suited for you, we will collectively in a detailed consultation. The thread dissolves again after 4 to 6 months. Due to the new formation of collagen fibers, the result remains visible for longer (about 1 to 2 years). The treatment can be repeated any number of times.

Thread lifting with PDO threads can be combined with hyaluronic acid injections. A very effective combination is concomitant treatment with autologous PRP or autologous and autologous PRP. PDO sutures are particularly suitable for the prevention of loss of elasticity, at the beginning of sinking facial contours, for desired large-scale application in the facial area, when desired combination with other procedures (autologous PRP, autologous fat) in the following regions: neck, décolleté, arms, chest , Stomach, thigh inside, bottom and knees.
