What are PDO threads?

PDO (polydioxanone) threads are a nonsurgical treatment that can lift, tighten, and rejuvenate skin. They are essentially dissolvable sutures that anchor your skin into a position that you prefer. During your appointment for PDO threads in Lancaster, we inject them under the skin, so they can stimulate your body’s healing response. During this time, your body generates important fibers, like elastin, that give your skin its structure. These fibers develop around the scaffold of the threads, building out a smoother, firmer appearance. All this to say: the dissolvable threads themselves are only part of the story. They boost your body’s healing response to encourage ongoing results, even after they’ve dissolved. That’s why you’ll enjoy a more youthful appearance for up to 18 months after treatment.

Is there any downtime with PDO threads?

The downtime with PDO threads is minimal. Most clients return to regular activities within a few days of receiving their injection, though some may experience mild swelling or bruising for 5 to 10 days after treatment. After your appointment for PDO threads in Lancaster, we’ll provide comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.

What other treatments can I combine with PDO threads?

You can combine PDO threads with other anti-aging treatments for more comprehensive results. For instance, Botox can reduce wrinkles and smooth the face, while fillers can restore lost volume, creating additional structure and fullness in your face. Laser skin rejuvenation can help you achieve a more even texture and tone, promoting a healthy, refreshed glow. We’ll help you combine and customize treatments like these to address the effects of aging and enhance your natural beauty.

Tighten Skin and Rebuild Collagen

The natural effects of aging, including decreased collagen production, can cause your skin to lose its tightness and elasticity. At Medical Spa NP, we offer PDO threads as a nonsurgical approach to countering these issues. PDO threads lift and tighten your skin while boosting collagen for a more youthful appearance.

Our Process

Step 1

We start by cleaning and marking the injection site. After administering a topical numbing gel, we use a thin needle to inject the dissolvable PDO threads into your skin. This whole process takes about an hour.

Fast, Friendly, Professional...

The girls here are absolutely amazing. They are friendly and treat people with respect and kindness. I was referred and within two weeks everything about my test levels was examined explained and executed upon. I have a full working knowledge of what's happening inside my body and what we are doing to fix these things. I never once felt out of place, a nuisance or even nervous. They are really smart and if you are a middle aged man struggling with issues concerning your testosterone you need to go see Medical Spa in Lancaster. Fast, Friendly, Professional and you will leave smarter than you was when you arrived.
