PDO threads, commonly known as NovaThreads, offers a facial rejuvenation treatment that can help you achieve a youthful appearance without invasive surgery.
The threads are inserted into the skin with a thin needle and gently pulled to create a lifting effect. Results can be seen immediately after the procedure, with continued improvement over the next few months as collagen production increases.
Duration of Results
The effects can last up to 12-18 months, depending on individual factors and the specific type of threads used.

PDO Threads Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
PDO threads are not a permanent solution for facial rejuvenation. Because the threads are made from absorbable materials, they will naturally dissolve in the body over time. However, depending on the individual and the area treated, the effects of PDO threads typically last for several months to a year. Another benefit is that the collagen production stimulated by the threads can provide long-term benefits for the skin’s elasticity and firmness.
Numbing cream or local anesthesia is used during the PDO or NovaThreads procedure to ensure that you’re comfortable. It is possible that you may feel some discomfort or mild pressure but it is generally well tolerated by our patients. All of our providers are gentle and will always make sure you’re comfortable throughout the process!
Just like with any medical procedure there are potential side effects and risks. For PDO threads these may include temporary swelling, bruising, redness or mild discomfort at the injection sites. These side effects are usually mild and should resolve over the next few days after your procedure. One of the most important ways to help minimize potential complications is to go to qualified health care professionals that have experience using PDO or NovaThreads.
