PDO Threads

The PDO treatment otherwise known as “the lunch time facelift” is a safe and effective alternative to surgical procedures.
Results can be seen immediately and last on average for around 18 months.

Dissolvable threads made of Polydioxanone (PDO) are inserted into the face using a cannula, lifting loose skin and improving it’s texture.
Unlike a surgical face lift there is no cut or incisions, just small injections.
