Facial Threading
Some of the most noticeable signs of aging occur in the lower third of the face – jowls, loose skin around the neck, and a gradual loss of jawline definition. A PDO thread lift may be the ideal solution if you’re looking for a way to achieve a more youthful, lifted appearance without committing to surgery.
Injectables by Dr. V offers state-of-the-art facial threading that delivers subtle, effective rejuvenation with minimal downtime. In addition to facial lifts, Dr. V also offers Raleigh thread lifts for the arms, breasts, and buttocks, giving you more options to tone and elevate areas commonly affected by skin laxity.
What Is a Thread Lift?
A PDO thread lift is a non-surgical procedure that uses polydioxanone threads – a biocompatible, dissolvable suture material long used in medical procedures such as heart surgery.
These threads offer two pivotal benefits when inserted strategically beneath your skin’s surface:
Immediate lifting of sagging tissues
Gradual stimulation of collagen production, which tightens and firms over time
This combination of instant and long-term improvements makes the PDO thread lift an attractive alternative to a traditional facelift, particularly for patients experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity.
How Facial Threading Works
During a PDO thread lift, Dr. Vincent Nacouzi will carefully place threads under your skin in targeted areas of your face or neck. The threads form a matrix that gently lifts sagging tissue, while also encouraging your body to produce more collagen.
PDO threads come in various textures to achieve different effects.
Smooth: Stimulate collagen for improved texture and tone.
Twisted: Provide volume in hollow or sunken areas.
Barbed: Offer mechanical lifting and are ideal for addressing sagging.
Depending on your aesthetic goals, Dr. V may use a combination of thread types to create a custom mesh-like structure that enhances your skin’s “scaffolding” and appearance.
What to Expect During and After Treatment
Facial threading is a minimally invasive, in-office procedure that typically takes 45 minutes to an hour. Most patients report minimal discomfort due to the local anesthesia, and there is no need for a lengthy recovery.
You will notice immediate improvements in skin tightness and facial contour, with full results becoming more visible over the following weeks as new collagen develops around the threads. Because the threads dissolve over time, the effects are long-lasting but not permanent. You can maintain your rejuvenated look with periodic touch-ups.
