PDO Threads

Types of PDO Threads

At Med Purchasing Resource, we recognize the significance of offering a variety of PDO threads to cater to the diverse needs of our clients. PDO threads come in three main types: mono, cog, and screw threads. Mono threads are smooth and provide a rejuvenation effect. Cog threads have barbs that latch onto the skin to provide lift and support. Lastly, screw threads consist of one or two intertwined threads, offering both volume and lift.

Benefits of PDO Threads

PDO threads offer a myriad of benefits. They stimulate collagen production, resulting in firmer, more youthful-looking skin. Additionally, they can lift and tighten the skin without the invasiveness of traditional surgery. Patients appreciate the minimal downtime and the immediate results that improve over time.

Procedure for PDO Threads

The procedure involves inserting fine, absorbable polydioxanone threads into the subcutaneous layer of the skin using small needles. This minimally invasive process can be completed within 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. Our experienced practitioners ensure a comfortable experience, applying local anesthesia to minimize any discomfort.

Recovery and Results of PDO Threads

Recovery after a PDO thread lift is relatively quick, with most patients able to return to normal activities within a few days. Mild swelling and bruising may occur but typically subside within a week. Results can be seen immediately, with optimal outcomes appearing after a few months as collagen production increases. These effects can last anywhere from 6 to 18 months.

Risks and Side Effects of PDO Threads

While PDO thread lifts are generally safe, some patients may experience side effects such as minor bruising, swelling, and discomfort. Rarely, complications like thread migration or infection can occur. Choosing a reputable provider like those we partner with at Med Purchasing Resource minimizes risks and ensures quality care.

Cost of PDO Threads

The cost of PDO thread treatments varies depending on the area treated and the number of threads used. Generally, prices range from $1,500 to $4,500. We aim to provide competitive pricing on our PDO threads and related equipment to support our clients in offering affordable treatments.

Candidate for PDO Threads

Ideal candidates for PDO threads are individuals looking to combat signs of aging without surgery. Those with minimal to moderate sagging skin who are in good overall health can benefit the most. A consultation with a qualified professional can determine if PDO threads are the right choice for you.

Maintenance of PDO Threads

To maintain the results of a PDO thread lift, we recommend following a healthy skincare regimen and protecting the skin from the sun. Periodic touch-up treatments can prolong the effects, ensuring long-lasting results. Our team is available to advise on the best practices for post-treatment care.

Comparison to Other Thread Lift Procedures

PDO threads are often compared to other thread lift materials, such as PLLA (Poly-L-lactic acid) and PCL (Polycaprolactone), each offering unique benefits. PDO threads are known for their safety and effectiveness, dissolving naturally into the body over time. They provide a versatile solution, suitable for both lifting and rejuvenating the skin. At Med Purchasing Resource, we are committed to staying at the forefront of advancements in thread lift technologies to offer the best options to our clients.
