PDO Threading FAQ's
PDO Threading FAQ's
PDO (polydioxanone) Threading FAQ’S
What are the benefits of PDO Threading?
Increases the production of collagen
Skin thickening, lifting, and tightening with minimally invasive procedures improve skin texture and lessen wrinkle appearance.
Why we recommend PDO Threading?
Mono PDO threads are well-liked by all sexes and are suitable for all age groups. We advise you to think about Mono PDO threads if you're seeking for a moderate, low-impact method to enhance the appearance of your skin or you're concerned about early skin ageing.
Benefits include;
• Increases Collagen production (& without surgery!)
• Not invasive (or very minimal invasion)
• Skin lifting
• Skin thickening & Tightening
• Improve skin texture and reduces the appearance of wrinkles.
Who could benefit from MONO PDO Threading?
Most patients can benefit with mono PDO threads. For individuals who are suffering uneven skin tone, moderate sagging, or a loss of volume under the skin, this therapy can be utilised as a preventative and enhancing treatment in younger patients to avoid sagging or improve naturally occuring volume.
What to expect with MONO PDO Threading?
After a skin consultation, numbing cream is applied which takes 15 minutes for full effect. Fine needles containing threads are inserted into the skin. The fine needles are then removed leaving the fine thread underneath the skin. The mono threads stimulate an increase in collagen production which takes approximately 8-12 weeks to occur.
How do MONO PDO threads work?
Thread sliding under the skin via a needle
The thread breaks down. With the breakdown of the thread, the skin begins to tighten and naturally regenerate the production of collagen and elastin.
Up to 12 months of rejuvenated and smoother skin.

When injected into the dermis, PN helps create optimal conditions for natural tissue restoration, boosting collagen production and skin hydration, and improving elasticity.
