About PDO Threads
- PDO threads are made of polydioxanone, a dissolvable suture material, and are placed beneath the skin in a minimally invasive procedure.
- The degree of improvement varies by person and the type of thread used.
- Ask your provider what the proposed thread type is intended to achieve.
Skin Quality Concerns
- Discuss what changes in skin texture or firmness may be realistic for the proposed treatment.
- They’re popular for delicate areas like:
• Under-eye crepiness
• Fine lines around the mouth or cheeks
• Neck lines (“tech neck”)
• Jawline texture
• Forehead or lower face for skin quality improvement
Timing and Duration of Results
- Confirm the expected timing of visible changes for your individual treatment plan.
- Discuss how long any changes may last for the proposed thread type and your individual response.
