Thread Lift
Duration
1 hour
PDO (polydioxanone) thread lift at Regenevéda uses FDA-cleared absorbable threads to mechanically lift and reposition sagging facial tissue while stimulating collagen synthesis along the thread tracts. Threads are inserted via needle or cannula under local anaesthesia, creating immediate mechanical lifting and a biological collagen-stimulating response over the following three to six months. Unlike surgical facelift, the procedure requires no incisions or general anaesthesia and involves minimal downtime. Effects typically last twelve to eighteen months as threads are gradually absorbed and replaced by newly formed collagen.
About this treatment
The PDO Thread Lift at Regenevéda employs polydioxanone (PDO) absorbable sutures — the same biodegradable synthetic polymer used in cardiac and orthopaedic surgery — inserted into the subcutaneous facial tissue planes to mechanically re-suspend descended soft tissue and simultaneously trigger a controlled fibroblastic response that produces new collagen along the thread tracts. PDO threads are inserted via fine-gauge needles or blunt-tip cannulas under…
