PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are absorbable sutures that can lift and rebuild the structures of the skin. PDO threads have received FDA clearance and are now recognized as a safe, minimally-invasive alternative to surgical face and neck lifts. Althouugh PDO threads cannot completely replace a full face lift, they can delay the need for surgical procedures as well as increase the longevity of a previous facelift by supporting the skin and preventing sagging and premature wrinkles. The PDO facelift makes for a fine non-invasive procedure to help your skin.

PDO threads are made from Polydiaxanone suture material that has been used in surgical procedures, such as cardiac, osteopathic and plastic surgery for decades. Hypoallergenic and non-pyrogenic, PDO threads are safe and effective way to lift and tighten sagging skin. Once inserted into the skin, the threads will instantly lift loose skin and continuously stimulate neocollagenesis to improve skin texture, fine lines and wrinkles and the overall firmness of the skin. PDO threads also induces the formation of elastin, which is the main protein constituent of elastic connective tissue in the dermis, which gives your skin the stretch and bounce back to its original shape. By stimulating the growth of bio-identical collagen and elastin in the skin, you can rebuild the building blocks and reverse the signs of aging.

How Does It Work ?

Threads are classified largely into 2 categories, barbed and non-barbeb. Barbed threads have little “arms” on the suture that can pull up the skin and keep it suspended. These barbed threads are inserted into the skin and will hold and grab the skin, and as they are activated, will lift and suspend. Non barbed threads come in a variety of sizes and lengths. The primary mechanism of action of non barbed threads is to induce collagen and elastin production. This will smooth out uneven texture and create a scaffolding deep within the skin to tighten and Volumize, for an all over youthful look.

Collagen and elastin are protein chains that act as a foundation that support and lift the skin. As you age, your skin loses these structural building blocks, causing the skin to sag and lose its firmness. PDO threads creates a mechanical inflammatory response that induces the body to create new collagen and elastin. This inflammatory response also in creases blood flow to the area that brightens the skin and gives it an all over “glow”. They can also contract fat and tighten the surrounding tissues.

Most facial procedures can take anywhere between 20 minutes to an hour, and simple individual ares can take between 5 to 15 minutes. Minimal pain is usually reported from the procedure, and local and topical anesthesia is used to alleviate any discomfort. Lifting is achieved immediately after the treatment, although optimal results are usually seen within 2-3 weeks. Threads will dissolve within 3-9 months, depending on the type of threads used, but neocollagenesis can continue for up to 18 months after the procedure as tissue constituents grow around the lattice created by the thread.

WHO IS THIS RIGHT CANDIDATE FOR THREAD LIFTS ?

PDO thread lifts are effective for mild and moderate lifts. The heavier the tissue to be lifted, the more threads that will be required and the longgevity of the lift will be reduced.

In most instances, once optimal lift is achieved, results will last anywhere from 18 to 24 months. However, the heavier the area to be lifted, a significant improvement is difficult to achieve and the duration of the lift will be shorter.

ARE PDO THREADS SAFE TO USE IN COMBINATION WITH OTHER AESTHETIC TREATMENTS ?

Absolutely! Other non invasive therapies such as fillers, collagen, prp, lasers and neurotoxins are great adjunct therapies that work well with PDO thread. It is important to know what therapies to do first and how long to wait in between treatments, to allow each product to work to its full potential and for the optimal aesthetic outcome.

WHAT IS A FACIAL FILLER ?

In genereal, we use fillers to replace volume, which then helps to restore a natural, rested look. Unfortunately, we associate a sunken, guant look with age and disease, whereas we are all attracted to the youthful fullness of a face has retained its curves and a supple appearance.

Some fillers fit the definition of a non-extreame treatment we offer to help individuals to look good quickly and make a good first impression. Some filler treatments can be done in minutes in the office with very little downtime. Most of the newer filler agents available today can provide a great youthful look by the coming weekend.

We sometimes use fillers in combination with other treatments. A Botox injection, followed by a filler and laser treatment, is one of the most common combination treatments and is a fast way to make an improved first impression. Both men and women seek injectables to restore their youthful appearance without drastically altering their looks, in order to enhance their attractiveness and self-confidence in their social and personal lives, and in today’s competitive workplace and business environment.

These factors combine to create the look we associate with the aging face. In addition, if we don’t replace facial volume, but just pull the skin and muscles tight, we end up with unusual lines on the face, plus a skeletal or cadaver look-and that is certainly inconsistent with an appearance of health or youthfulness!

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR FILLERS

In general, those who have lost volume or have deepening furrows, creases, and lines characteristic of aging can benefit from fillers. Those who are younger, but desire bigger lips or bigger cheeks or a more defined chin can also benefit from fillers.

In the sections below, you will find information about a variety of fillers, including those no longer frequently used or on their way out.

Smaz Hifu Lifting

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a relatively new cosmetic treatment for skin tightening that some consider a noninvasive and painless replacement for face lifts. It uses ultrasound energy to encourage the production of collagen, which results in firmer skin.

HIFU has many aesthetic benefits, including:

• wrinkle reduction
• tightening sagging skin on the neck (sometimes called turkey neck)
• lifting the cheeks, eyebrows, and eyelids
• enhancing jawline definition
• tightening
• smoothing the skin

HIFU was then approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2009 for brow lifts. The device was also cleared by the FDA in 2014 to improve lines and wrinkles of the upper chest and neckline.

More evidence will be needed to find out who is best suited for this type of procedure. So far, HIFU has been found to be a promising treatment that could replace face lifts, especially in younger people who don’t want the risks and recovery time associated with surgery.

HIFU won’t work as well for people with more severe cases of sagging skin.

HIFU facial and Neck

HIFU uses focused ultrasound energy to target the layers of skin just below the surface. The ultrasound energy causes the tissue to heat up rapidly.

Once the cells in the targeted area reach a certain temperature, they experience cellular damage. While this may seem counterintuitive, the damage actually stimulates the cells to produce more collagen-a protein that provides structure to the skin.

The increase in collagen firm skin. Since the high-frequency ultrasound beams are focused on a specific tissue site below the skin’s surface, there’s no damage to the upper layers of the skin and adjacent issue.

HIFU may not be appropriate for everyone. In general, the procedure works best on people older than 30 with mild-to-moderate skin laxity.

People with photodamaged skin or a high degree of loose skin may need several treatments before seeing results.

Older people with more extensive photo-aging, severe skin laxity, or very saggy skin on the neck aren’t good candidates and may need surgery.

HIFU isn’t recommended for people with infections and open skin lesions at the target area, severe or cystic acne, and metallic implants in the treatment area.

Benefits of high-intensity focused ultrasound

According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), HIFU and other nonsurgical alternatives to facelifts have seen a major increase in popularity over the last few years. The total number of procedurer performed has increased 64.8 percent between 2012 and 2017.

In a larger study of 93 people, 66 percent of those treated with HIFU perceived an improvement in the appearance of their face and neck after 90 days.

What does HIFU feel like?

You may experience slight discomfort during an HIFU procedure. Some people describe it as tiny electric pulses or a light prickly aensation.

If you’re worried about pain, your doctor may suggest taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) prior to treatment.

Immediately after the treatment, you may experience mild redness or swelling, which will gradually recede over the next few hours.

HIFU for face procedure

There’s no special preparation needed before having an HIFU procedure. You should remove all makeup and skin care products from the target area before treatment.

Here’s what to expect at your appointment:

1.A physician or technician first cleans the target area.

2.They may apply a topical anesthetic cream before starting.

3.The physician or technician then applies an ultrasound gel.

4.The HIFU device is placed against the skin.

5.Using an Ultrasound viewer, the physician or technician agjusts the device to the right setting.

6.Ultrasound energy is then delivered to the target area in short pulses for roughly 30 to 90 minutes.

7.The device is removed.

If additional treatments are needed, you will schedule the next treatment.
You’re free to go home and resume your normal daily activities right away after the procedure.
If you’re looking for a treatment that is quick, painless, and noninvasive, HIFU is an excellent option compared to a surgical face lift.

HOW BOTOX COSMETIC WORKS

Your muscles contract whenever you smile, frown, or make any other facial expression. Through this constant muscle movement, the skin becomes less elastic and draws together, resulting in the formation of wrinkles and frown lines.

When BOTOX Cosmetic is injected into your facial region, it blocks your nerve impulses from activating the muscle constractions that cause wrinkles to develop. As a result, your skin will appear relaxed and smoother.

BOTOX Cosmetic treatments are fast and virtually painless. The procedure only takes about 10 to 15 miniutes, and there is virtually no recovery time.

Most patients usually see an improvement in the appearance of wrinkles within three to five days, although results will vary. The effects of your BOTOX Cosmetic treatment last approximately three to five months. With repeated treatment, you can see longer-lasting effects.
