PDO Thread Lifts

PDO Thread Lifts for a Non-Surgical Facelift

With age, the skin on your face begins to sag and becomes more lax and wrinkled. But just because aging is natural doesn’t mean you have to age naturally!

There are so many different skin care treatments that promise to lift and tighten the skin, but not all of them deliver on that promise.

What Is a PDO Thread Lift?

A PDO thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that delivers results comparable to a traditional facelift. During the procedure, we use MINT lifting threads that literally lift your skin from the inside. The result is lifted, tighter, and smoother skin that looks more youthful.

The threads are made of a synthetic polymer called polydioxanone (PDO), which has long been used in implants and medical devices. One of our experts at Deja You Medical will gently insert these cogged threads into your skin using a needle or cannula. The small barbs or cogs on the threads anchor to the skin, and when pulled tight, create a powerful lifting effect. Your skin will tighten and lift, creating that youthful, beautiful appearance you’re looking for.

Treatment Areas

PDO thread lifts can improve sagging skin and signs of aging in these areas:

• Face
• Jawline
• Jowls
• Neck
• Arms
• Abdomen
• Thighs

How Much Does a Thread Lift Cost?

The cost of a cogged thread lift can vary widely depending on various factors such as the area being treated and the number of threads that are placed.

On average, the cost of a MINT cogged thread lift for the face can range from $1,500 to $4,000. However, the cost may be higher or lower depending on the factors mentioned above.

Which Is Better: Thread Lifts or Fillers?

Whether thread lifts or fillers are better for you depends on your specific concerns, goals, and skin type. Both procedures offer different benefits and are effective for different types of wrinkles and sagging skin.

Thread lifts use dissolvable threads that are inserted under the skin to lift and tighten sagging skin. They are particularly effective in areas where gravity has caused sagging, such as the lower face and neck. Thread lifts can also stimulate collagen production, which can help improve your skin texture and firmness over time.

Fillers, on the other hand, use injectable hyaluronic acid or other materials to fill in wrinkles and restore volume to your face. They are particularly effective for treating nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and other wrinkles caused by loss of volume.

In some cases, a combination of thread lifts and fillers may be recommended for you to achieve the best results. At Deja You Medical, our qualified and experienced medical professionals can help determine which procedure or combination of procedures is best suited to your needs and goals.
