Treatment Description:
PDO/PLLA threads are an innovative technique used to improve skin firmness and tightness. Threads are especially recommended for people whose skin is loose, has lost elasticity, or shows signs of sagging. Threads not only provide an immediate lifting effect but also stimulate the skin for natural regeneration and biorevitalization. They can be used by both older and younger people with lax skin.
The procedure involves inserting threads into the selected skin area using a needle. Only a small puncture mark remains, and the threads are fully absorbable and do not cause irritation. The first effect is visible immediately, while the full result appears after about 2 weeks. We use only straight threads – twin or twist – designed to firm the skin. I do not recommend barbed threads. The materials used for the threads are: PDO (polydioxanone, used in surgery for absorbable sutures, fully absorbed within 3–6 months) and PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid, a natural skin stimulator). Both products are safe, well-studied, and popular among people with the first signs of skin laxity.
After the procedure, it is recommended to avoid tanning beds, saunas, and hot baths for a week. Thread treatments are an ideal part of combination therapies with procedures such as mesotherapy or tissue stimulators. This is a minimally invasive procedure, often confused with barbed threads due to concerns about unnatural results.
