Essentially a face lift without the pain, PDO Thread Lifts use smaller incisions and boast a shorter recovery time to traditional face lifts. The PDO thread lift, or 'feather lift', works by tightening facial skin using finer and stronger thread to pull the skin upwards.
The finer, stronger threads used in a PDO Thread lift are invisible under the skin, and permanently hold the skin firmly in place with the use of small suture barbs. With the latest advancements in this treatment, our patients are able to enjoy the minimal downtime, and a dramatically younger appearance following the procedure.
