PDO Mono Threads
An increasingly popular method for non-surgical facelift and rejuvenation.
PDO Mono Threads are a method of tightening and thickening your skin. They are a type of single PDO filament, these are smooth and without barbs. PDO Threads are inserted into the subdermal layer of skin, in a mesh-like pattern, promoting the creation of new collagen. The threads activate collagen synthesis which produces a gradual skin thickening, skin tightening and rejuvenation effect.
They are minimally invasive and can also be used multiple times.
Our mono threads are made from Polydioxanone – an absorbable polymer. This material is both flexible and durable.
The threads become a support structure for your face, allowing collagen production to increase. Overtime, the threads are absorbed by the body.
They induce natural collagen production, which creates a tightening effect. This effect lasts for 6-12 months.
Results may be seen in 6 weeks and will continue to improve over 2 to 6 months. While the threads slowly dissolve, their effects may last up to 12 months.
What happens during a Matrix PDO Thread Treatment?
