PDO Thread Treatment Highlights

• Medically Supervised Procedure
• Supports Collagen Production
• Designed to Refine Skin Tone and Texture

PDO thread treatment is a non-surgical procedure that can support skin structure and improve overall texture and firmness. The treatment involves the use of fine, biocompatible threads made from a material long used in medical settings. Over time, these threads are naturally absorbed by the body while encouraging the skin’s own regenerative response.

Types of Thread Lift Treatments

Welcome To Medaesthetics

Doctor-led, boutique cosmetic clinics in Perth since 2009. At MedAesthetics, we provide a wide range of non-surgical skin and body rejuvenation treatments, including thread lift procedures, skin and collagen therapies, laser rejuvenation, and body contouring.

As skin matures, it naturally loses elasticity and firmness due to reduced collagen production and changes in facial structure. Thread treatments can be used to help support the skin’s framework, improving its overall texture and appearance over time.

Our experienced clinical team has been performing thread-based rejuvenation treatments in Perth for many years, combining advanced techniques with a patient-centred approach focused on safety, comfort, and natural-looking outcomes.

What Are PDO Threads?

PDO thread treatment is a non-surgical procedure designed to support the skin’s structure and improve its overall firmness and texture.
These threads are made from a biocompatible, absorbable material that has been safely used in medical procedures for many years. Once placed under the skin, they gradually dissolve while stimulating the skin’s natural collagen response.

Commonly treated areas may include the lower face, jawline, cheeks, and neck.
Different thread types and techniques are used depending on the treatment area and individual goals. The procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia or topical numbing cream for comfort.

Following treatment, some temporary redness, swelling, or mild bruising may occur, which usually settles within several days. As collagen production develops over time, the skin can appear firmer and more refined.

PDO thread rejuvenation can be an option for those seeking subtle improvement in skin texture and firmness without surgery. Individual suitability is determined during consultation with a qualified practitioner.

The area is numbed prior to treatment using topical or local anaesthesia to enhance comfort.

Downtime & Recovery

Duration of Effects

Longevity varies between individuals depending on skin type, thread type, and lifestyle factors.

Potential Risks & Complications

General Information About PDO Threads

Threading Results:

Skin texture and firmness may improve progressively over several weeks as new collagen forms.

Mechanism of Action:

When inserted, the threads interact with the skin’s natural repair processes, encouraging gradual collagen renewal that supports skin structure over time.

Treatment Considerations

PDO thread treatment is most appropriate for mild to moderate skin laxity. For more significant concerns, your practitioner may recommend complementary treatments such as energy-based tightening or surgical procedures.

Pain Management

Comfort measures are tailored to each patient. Options may include numbing cream, local anaesthetic, or inhalation anaesthesia to minimise discomfort during the procedure.

Aftercare Tips

Your practitioner will provide specific guidance, which may include avoiding excessive facial movement, heat exposure, and strenuous exercise for a short period after treatment.

Careful patient selection is the key to clinically successful outcomes.

FAQs

What is PDO Thread Treatment?

PDO thread treatment is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure designed to support and rejuvenate the skin’s structure. Fine, absorbable threads are placed just beneath the surface of the skin using fine needles or cannulas. These threads interact with the body’s natural processes, helping to stimulate collagen production and support the skin’s firmness over time.
Key treatment areas may include:
– Areas of mild skin laxity on the face or neck
– The lower face and jawline
– Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
– Cheeks and midface
– Areas requiring overall texture and firmness support

Who may be suitable for PDO Threads?

PDO thread treatment may be an option for individuals experiencing early signs of skin laxity or textural changes and seeking a non-surgical approach to support their skin. Suitability is assessed during consultation based on medical history, expectations, and skin condition.

What types of PDO Threads are available?

Thread treatments vary depending on the concern being addressed. Broadly, there are:
– Collagen-supporting threads, which focus on skin quality and firmness
– Structural threads, designed to help support tissue and improve facial contours

How is the procedure performed?

Threads are carefully placed under the skin using a fine needle or cannula. The treatment is typically performed under local anaesthesia to maintain comfort. Once in place, the threads gradually dissolve while encouraging natural collagen renewal.

Is the procedure painful?

Discomfort is generally minimal due to the use of numbing agents. Sensations of pressure or pulling may occur during placement, but these typically subside once the procedure is complete.

How long do the effects last?

The threads themselves dissolve naturally over time, and the visible effects vary depending on the type of thread used and individual factors such as skin condition and lifestyle. Your practitioner will discuss what to expect during consultation.

Can PDO Threads be combined with other treatments?

In some cases, thread treatments may be part of a broader rejuvenation plan alongside procedures such as laser therapy, skin hydration treatments, or collagen-stimulating injectables. Your clinician will advise if a combination approach is suitable.

What are the potential risks and considerations?

As with all medical aesthetic procedures, PDO thread treatments carry potential risks. These may include temporary redness, bruising, tenderness, or swelling at the treatment site. Rarely, patients may experience skin irregularities or thread visibility. A detailed consultation and thorough aftercare instructions are provided before treatment.

Who may not be suitable for this treatment?

PDO thread treatment is not suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions, active skin infections, or unrealistic expectations. Your practitioner will conduct a full assessment to ensure safety and suitability.

What is the recovery process like?

Some mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising can occur for several days post-treatment. Most people resume light daily activities within a few days. Strenuous activity, saunas, and excessive facial movement should be avoided during the early healing phase as advised by your clinician.

What are alternative treatments to PDO Threads?

Depending on your goals, other non-surgical treatments may be suggested, such as:
– Skin hydration and bio-remodelling treatments
– Energy-based skin tightening
– Fractional laser skin rejuvenation
– Collagen-stimulating procedures

How much does PDO Thread treatment cost?

The fee varies depending on the number and type of threads used, as well as the treatment area. As a general guide, pricing starts from $500 per session. A consultation is required to determine suitability and provide an accurate treatment plan.
