AESTHETIC THERAPY

Are you worried about sagging skin and want something more natural than Botox? PDO thread lifting may be the right option for you. This aesthetic technique is originated from acupuncture. Threads made of material called Polydioxanone (PDO) are attached to needles and will be inserted into a target area of your facial skin. Once these threads are placed in the skin, they will trigger your skin cells to stimulate natural collagen production giving your skin better structure and a natural, rejuvenated look. It takes around 6 months for these threads to slowly dissolve in your body which means your lifted facial contours will also remain for around 6 months or more.

Compared to Botox or other surgical facelift, the PDO thread lifting is minimally invasive and gives you a more natural look without going under the knife or injecting synthetic fillers in your skin! Since it is your own new collagen that will shape your contour, this method is best suited for those who are looking for a non-surgical, natural and sustainable skin care method.

TREATMENT SESSION OVERVIEW

  • Face cleansing & skin disinfection (10 min)
  • Numbing cream application OR numbing injection (30-40 min)
  • Second face cleansing & skin disinfection (10 min)
  • PDO thread lifting (10-30 min) – depends on the number of threads used
  • Soothing aftercare (20-30 min) – depends on patient’s skin condition

WHAT TO BRING TO YOUR SESSION

After the treatment, some patients may experience temporary swelling, bruising and pain to the treatment site. We will apply an ice pack or a soothing mask to your treatment site to minimize the downtime as much as possible. However, we strongly recommend that you bring a mask, sunglasses, a hat or anything to cover up the treatment sites. This will subside within a few days or may take longer depending on your condition while you can return to most of your daily routines right away.
