What happens during PDO treatment?
A local anesthetic will be used at or near the treated area(s), PDO threads will be inserted using a micro-needle or cannula. PDO thread lifting is a very customized procedure, and your healthcare professional will work closely with you in order to achieve optimal results. There are no incisions, meaning stitches are not required.
When will I see results?
PDO lifting delivers immediate results, which continue to improve over the next 2-6 months as new collagen is produced. Although the PDO threads will slowly dissolve, you will continue to see results for up to 3 years. It is recommended for the best results to complete a series of 3 treatments about 4 weeks apart.
How long are PDO treatment sessions?
The time of your procedure will vary based on many factors such as the size of your treatment area, but typically takes between 30 and 60 minutes.
What should I expect?
The effects should be noticeable immediately after treatment. However, the maximum effect will occur in 4-6weeks. There may be some redness, bruising (may last up to 2 weeks) and swelling (may last up to a few days) around the treated area(s), which is normal and expected. Asymmetry and irregularity of the tissue is common and will typically resolve in one to two weeks. Pain at the insertion points is normal and may last several days after treatment. Stinging and pulling pain, as well as the scratchy sensation you experience after your procedure, will begin to subside by week 2 and disappear by week 5.
How much do PDO threads cost?
The price will vary based on many factors such as the area(s) being treated. This treatment is customized and therefore pricing may vary from $300-$3000 and we recommend consulting with one of cosmetic providers.
