PDO Threads
Treat Wrinkles & Crepey Skin
PDO Threads are small hair-like threads made of a bioabsorbable synthetic material. They are used to improve the integrity of the skin, toning of the tissue, address wrinkles and increase the hydration of the skin.
PDO threads are a well-used material for suturing in most pediatric cardiac surgery and are a completely safe medical device as well as being completely absorbable and hypoallergenic. PDO contains no heavy metals and has no significant side effects.
PDO threads range in size, strength, and purpose. PDO Threads stimulate the production of new collagen protein which results in increased elasticity and firmness of the skin and can last up to 12 months.

NasoLabial Folds
Procedure Time
30 – 45 minutes
The placement of PDO Threads can take as little as five minutes and as long as an hour depending on how many threads are placed and in how many locations on the body. We typically recommend that each patient begins with a minimum of four threads (two on each side) to provide a result that you will enjoy. In addition, threading is often used in conjunction with other treatments such as dermal filler, and injections of neuromodulators, which will also determine the length of the appointment. The great thing about PDO Threads is that we can always go back and add more if you would like. The most important aspect of these is having a very experienced provider. Our Master Injector has been doing this over several years and gives amazing results with minimal downtime.
Recovery Time & Side Effects
Recovery Time & Side Effects
• Redness or light swelling for about 15 minutes
• Potential bruising, which can last for up to 1 week
• The recovery for “threading” is virtually immediate. The client will leave our clinic and can immediately resume most activities. As with any injection in the skin, there is a potential for bruising at the site. It would be advisable for the client to abstain from exercise for several hours and to adhere to keeping treated area clean like they would after any injection treatment. After two weeks the body starts synthesis of natural protein of the body (elastin and collagen). Production of natural proteins continues up to 1 month until the PDO thread absorption is complete.
Results
Improvement in the integrity of skin, toning of the tissue, wrinkle improvement and increased hydration of the skin.
The PDO Thread Treatment Process
How does the LunchTime Lift Work?
At Aesthetic Med Studio we use PDO Threads (a colorless, crystalline, biodegradable synthetic polymer) to increase the synthesis of endogenous hyaluronic acid and improve local microcirculation. Bio-stimulation is a new approach to aesthetics. The insertion of the powerful synthetic fiber (the PDO Thread) which is absorbed in the tissue leaves the skin firmer, more elastic, and better hydrated. After two weeks the body starts the synthesis of the natural protein of the body (elastin and collagen). Production of natural proteins continues for up to 1 month until the PDO thread absorption is complete.
1. The Consultation
Your provider will review your medical history with you and discuss any area(s) of concern to ensure PDO Threads is right for you.
2. Preparation
Your provider will take photos of the area(s) receiving treatment and use lidocaine to ensure your comfort.
3. Pre-Injection
After your injector marks the treatment areas, they will insert the threads below the skin. A very small needle is used, which creates only minor discomfort.
