Give me the lowdown

If you’re looking for immediate plumping effects and overall skin rejuvenation in one nifty treatment, you can’t go past the power of PDO Mono Threads, offered here at our Perth clinic! PDO Mono Threads are smooth, flexible and durable threads made from an absorbable material that helps stimulate the production of collagen, creating a tightening effect over time. After injecting local anaesthetic, the smooth mono threads are placed under the skin in a mesh-like pattern to stimulate production of collagen and elastin, leading to thicker, firmer skin and improvements in sagging and crepey looking skin. The PDO mono Thread treatment is quick (less than 45 minutes) and relatively painless, however you may feel a little discomfort for a few seconds as the needles enter the skin and some tenderness in the first few hours after your treatment. Results will reach full effect around 6 weeks post treatment! In the weeks and months following your treatment, the PDO Mono Threads are fully absorbed by the body as your natural collagen production takes its place, meaning you don’t need to remove them. Pretty cool, huh?

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I have PDO threads done?

Typically, PDO Mono Threads can be performed every 6 to 12 months, depending on your skin’s needs or your desired outcomes. The frequency varies based on factors such as the initial condition of the skin, the number of threads used in a single session, and the overall aesthetic goals you may want to achieve. During your consultation, our expert team will discuss all of this with you prior to your treatment.

What are the PDO Threads made of?

PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are made of a biocompatible material commonly used in medical sutures. This material is absorbed by the body over time, making PDO threads safe for various cosmetic applications.

What are the treatment areas for PDO Threads?

PDO Mono Threads can be used in multiple areas to rejuvenate and tighten the skin. These include common areas such as the face, neck, and jawline. They are particularly effective for lifting and firming sagging skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines, and refining the neck's profile. Additionally, they can be used on other body parts like the abdomen and thighs to improve skin laxity.

How do PDO Threads work?

PDO Mono Threads work by being inserted into the subdermal layers of the skin, where they create a scaffold that stimulates collagen production. Over time, this collagen build-up enhances the skin's volume and firmness, providing a natural-looking lift and improved skin elasticity. As the threads dissolve, they help maintain the elevated and rejuvenated appearance through their collagen-inducing properties.

How are PDO Mono Threads different to Dermal Fillers?

PDO Threads and Dermal Fillers serve different purposes and operate differently in cosmetic procedures. PDO Threads provide a lifting effect by creating a supportive structure beneath the skin that stimulates collagen production, enhancing firmness over time. Dermal Fillers, on the other hand, add immediate volume and fullness by injecting gel-like substances directly into specific skin layers, addressing wrinkles and volume loss. Simply put, and the way we like to think of it, threads focus on lifting and tightening, while fillers are primarily used for contouring and volumising.

How many threads will I need?

The number of PDO Mono Threads required varies per client, based on the treated area and the extent of the desired results. A minimal lift or subtle texture improvement might require fewer threads, whereas more significant lifting and tightening effects would need more. Typically, a nurse can use anywhere from 10 to 50 threads per session, depending upon your bespoke treatment plan discussed in your consultation.
