PDO Threads
Non-Surgical Lift with PDO Threads at VFHC Medical Aesthetics β¨
Rejuvenate your skin and redefine your face with PDO Threads, an innovative non-surgical lifting technique. These polydioxanone threads stimulate collagen production, improving skin firmness, elasticity, and overall appearance naturally.
What are PDO Threads?
Polydioxanone (PDO) threads are a special medical grade thread that is thinner than hair and made of protein. Research has confirmed that PDO relaxes tendons and muscles, whilst a foreign body reaction improves the blood flow to the area stimulating neocollagenesis (the production of new collagen in the skin). It also stimulates elastin and hyaluronic acid, both substances are key to maintaining firm, youthful looking skin.
