PDO MONO THREADS
Tighten your skin naturally!
About PDO Mono Threads
If you’re looking for a safe, non-surgical skin tightening treatment, consider PDO Mono Threads. This treatment is a popular solution for mild skin laxity of the face and neck.  These smooth threads act as a scaffold to support the sub-dermal layer of the skin and triggers the production of collagen and elastin which act to rejuvenate skin and restore a smooth, youthful appearance.

How PDO Threads work
PDO Mono Threads are made of an absorbable synthetic polymer (polydioxanone) which is a medical-grade material that has been used in surgeries for over 50 years. Threads placed under the skin via small cannulas where they initiate fibroblast activation. Your skin will then begin to produce new collagen and elastin around the thread, resulting in firmer, tighter skin.
Results will be evident from approximately 8-10 weeks post-treatment and improvement to the area will continue for 2-6 months. PDO Mono Thread results can last up to 12 months. The PDO material will be slowly absorbed by the body but in the meantime the threads provide support beneath the skin layer.
BEFORE & AFTERS
What to expect during PDO Mono Thread treatment
- Arrive to your appointment makeup free.
- Avoid alcohol and tobacco use for at least 5 days prior.
- Avoid ibuprofen, aspirin, omega-3 fatty acids, green tea as these may increase the risk of bleeding or bruising.

- You must not be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- A prescription-strength topical anaesthetic will first be applied to the area for at least 40 minutes prior to the treatment to reduce discomfort.
- The threads are inserted into the deep dermal layer of the skin in a pattern which promotes tightening and shaping of the facial soft tissue and skin.
- The number of threads used will depend on the treatment area.

After PDO thread treatment, temporary swelling, bruising and tenderness may be experienced for a few days post-treatment, this is normal and will gradually reduce over the next week. To guarantee best results the following protocols should be followed:
- Do not wash or touch for face for at least 12 hours.
- Avoid wearing makeup for 2 days.
- Avoid non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication for 48 hours.
- Avoid facials, massaging or any other actions which cause pulling of your facial skin for at least 3 weeks.
- No excessive heat treatments such as RF Needling or Lasers which produce heat should not be undertaken for 3 months post-treatment as heat will break down the threads prematurely.
- Avoid sleeping on your stomach or side for at least a week.
- A comprehensive post-care protocol will be provided to you after treatment.
