Common Questions
Who's a candidate for PDO threads?
Men and women suffering from early signs of aging like sagging skin in the mid-face and jowls are good candidates for this procedure. Individuals not ready to commit to a surgical facelift, but that still want to address signs of aging, or previous facelift patients that are noticing signs of aging skin again are also both candidates for this procedure.
When will I see results after a thread lift?
Threads deliver an immediate lift and gradually restores lost facial volume of the mid face and jaw by triggering your own natural collagen production for a more youthful appearance that continues to improve over 6 months and lasts up to 2 years.
*Results vary from person to person
What's the difference between a facelift and a thread lift?
A facelift is a surgical procedue that tightens underlying facial structures along with removing excess skin and fatty tissue. This surgical procedure is a great option for those with severe sagging skin and tissue who can invest in this long-term solution and time off to recover. The results of a facelift are drastic and can last 10+ years.
PDO threads on the other hand are for patients who are looking to address sagging skin through a minimally invasive procedure without invasive surgery. The results are natural and instant and can last up to 2 years.

Is there downtime?
Patients may experience mild bruising and swelling following a thread lift. Patients may immediately resume your daily activities after the procedure. Strenuous activities should be resumed after a couple days to a week. Please consult with your Aesthetica Nurse Injector for further instructions.
Are there any side effects?
Common side effects include soreness, minor bruising, swelling and mild discomfort. If you experience any other complications or an extended period of the side effects, please consult with your provider.
Is the procedure painful?
Aesthetica's providers will normally administer local anesthesia prior to the procedure. You may feel pressure during the insertion of the threads and/or hear the "clicking" sound of the threads, but you should feel minimal pain during the procedure.
