PDO Thread Lift (Tensioning Wires) is a non-surgical lifting method based on the multiple implantations of fully resorbable tension and biostimulation wires, which form a vector network that acts as a support for the flaccid tissues and lack of volume on the face.
The wires are 100% resorbable and composed of polydioxanone (PDO), which in addition to lifting the tissues, allows the stimulation of collagen production.
Through a small entry of less than 1mm, without cuts or incisions, the threads are inserted into the tissues through cannulas, and when activated, they pull the tissues to the desired position.
The application procedure is relatively simple and quick (30-60 minutes), is an outpatient technique, and only requires local topical anesthesia.
Before choosing a place to undergo the treatment, it is important to ensure that the chosen clinic is reliable and uses quality techniques and materials.
At the Atelier do Sorriso clinic in Almancil, Algarve, you will find a team of specialists and our guarantee of consistent quality.
The result of a thread lift treatment can last from 6 months to 1 year, depending on the type of thread used and the patient’s skin type.
Some factors, such as lifestyle and post-treatment care, can also affect the duration of the results.
Most patients can resume their normal activities within a few days, but there may be some swelling and bruising that take a week or more to disappear.
The price of a thread lift treatment can vary significantly depending on the area where you live, the type of thread used, and the clinic where the treatment is performed.
It is recommended to follow post-treatment guidelines to achieve satisfactory results. The care varies depending on the treated area, quantity, and type of threads.
In general, it is recommended to avoid excessive mouth opening for 3 weeks, impact sports, running, and sauna.
The discomfort is minimal, as topical anesthesia or small amounts of local anesthesia can be used when necessary.
Possible side effects include swelling, redness, pain, bruising, and asymmetry. Most of these effects are temporary.
Thread lifts provide a more subtle lifting effect and are less invasive than a surgical facelift. However, they do not replace the more dramatic results of surgery.
