What are PDO Threads?

PDO threads are made of polydioxanone, which is used in biomedical applications. This substance is absorbed into the body within four to six months through hydrolysis and does not create scar tissue. The thread stimulates collagen production and the structure created can last for two to three years.

We offer Mint PDO Threads to tighten, lift and add volume to the face and neck. At the beginning of the treatment, the area is numbed using a local anesthetic and then the threads are strategically placed in the treatment area.
