How it works
PDO Mono Threads work by stimulating the growth of collagen and elastin in desired areas across the face and neck.
PDO threads are single, smooth threads made from polydioxanaone (PDO) common dissolvable suture material.
At approximately 3 months, the threads begin to dissolve. The collagen stimulation continues for up to 12 months after treatment, providing you with long-lasting effects.

You can see visible results in just a single treatment with PDO Mono Threads, however maximum tension will be visible at around 8-12 weeks post treatment.
Depending on your desired results and current skin health, additional treatments may be required. During your complimentary consultation with your registered nurse, we will take the time to understand your individual goals and create a treatment plan to suit you.

PDO Mono Thread Treatments take between 30-60 minutes and the area is numbed for your comfort. The number of injections will depend on the amount of product and desired results.
Depending on the desired outcome, results can be achieved in as little as your first treatment. Additional treatments may be required based on collagen depletion, your desired results and the size of area to be treated.
Whilst effects may be observed immediately, maximum tension from the PDO Mono Threads will be visible from around 8-12 weeks post treatment. As the body continues to remodel new collagen and tissue support around the threads, ongoing outcomes can be obtainable for up to 12-months.
As everyone’s skin is unique, there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ for the number of threads required. There are several factors that will determine how many threads will be used, such as your current skin health, the area being treated, and desired results. During your complimentary consultation, your Aesthetic nurse will take the time to understand your individual goals and create a treatment plan to suit your needs.
