Collagen is what keeps our skin youthful looking through our 20s, but once our collagen levels start to decrease, skin begins to lose volume and elasticity. This is what causes forehead wrinkles. A PDO thread lift will elevate the forehead in strategic areas to smooth out wrinkles and make you look younger. Thread lifts can be used instead of Botox, or in combination with this treatment. Your practitioner will guide you as to the best options for your individual skin, depending on how and where in the face you are ageing.
This nonsurgical alternative to a permanent facelift involves threads being administered into deep skin layers of your face in targeted areas to rejuvenate your appearance. Sagging areas will be lifted giving you results similar to a surgical procedure, but without any scarring. A PDO thread lift will:
Elevate the skin mechanically
Speed up cell regeneration through increased collagen levels, and improve the texture of your skin, and skin elasticity.
Fat tissue will contract, giving your skin a younger tighter look.
The PDO threads will be absorbed by your facial tissue approximately 6 months after the treatment. However, although the threads themselves will have disappeared, the results of the thread lift will be visible for 12-18 months. This is due to the effect of the increase in collagen production that the threads stimulate.
