Who is a good candidate for this treatment?

Individuals of all ages are great candidates for this treatment. Younger patients in their 20’s may seek this treatment to further beautify and emphasize certain facial features like the cheeks and brows. Patients in their 30’s and 40’s may seek this treatment to rejuvenate and slow their aging progressions. Patients in their 50’s+ may seek this treatment as a preemptive way to assess if they will want to continue with a surgical facelift or use it as an adjunct to their facelifts to help the results last longer.

Please seek a consultation with our Nurse Angella to assess if you are a good candidate for this procedure and to discuss realistic expectations with this treatment.

Are there any scarring associated with PDO thread lift?

No, there is no scarring with the PDO thread lift treatment. There may be some injection points from the thread lift that may appear slightly red for the first 3-4 days. However, once fully healed, the injection points will be invisible and there will be no scars from this treatment.

Although thread lift is a very common procedure, it is important to go to a practitioner who is skilled and knowledgeable about this procedure. Typically, there are very little complications with PDO thread lifts but this is dependent on the skill level of the aesthetic provider. Nurse Angella is an expert PDO Thread Lift Practitioner and continues to perfect her skill with continuous education and training on PDO Threads.

What is recovery like? Is it painful?

This treatment is well tolerated by patients with the use of lidocaine injections and cryotherapy.

After the treatment, we highly recommend patients to do the following:

• Avoid exercising for 10-14 days after the treatment
• Avoid large facial expressions, such as yawning, opening the mouth wide, squinting
• Ice the treated areas throughout the day to minimize swelling and help with discomfort
• Sleeping with head elevated and avoiding sleeping on the sides of the face
• Avoid make-up for 24-48 hours
