When it comes to refining your facial contours and smoothing out early sagging without surgery, polydioxanone (PDO) MAX thread lift offers a smart, modern solution.
At North Texas Plastic Surgery, our talented and professional Med Spa staff performs PDO MAX thread lifts in Southlake, using advanced technology to create eye-popping results with minimal downtime.
PDO MAX threads are FDA-cleared, biocompatible sutures that your body safely absorbs over time. These threads were originally used in cardiovascular surgery but have since become a trusted method of non-surgical facial rejuvenation.
PDO MAX threads are among the most advanced available lifts, providing improved tensile strength and secure anchoring for longer-lasting lift and support for our patients in Southlake. Each thread is designed with precision barbs or cogs that hook into the subdermal tissue. This allows our plastic surgeons to reposition sagging skin along lifted vectors. Your results should include improved definition of your cheeks, jawline, and neck, without incisions or general anesthesia.
PDO MAX threads are ideal for treating areas where skin laxity and volume loss first appear. Common treatment zones include:
We tailor the placement of PDO MAX thread lift to your facial anatomy, using specific lifting and tightening techniques. Whether we are lifting your lower face or smoothing your neck, each procedure is expertly mapped with precision for optimal, balanced results!
PDO MAX thread lift procedures are performed in our accredited in-office surgical facility in Southlake using local anesthetic to ensure your comfort and safety. Your plastic surgeon marks strategic entry points and uses a blunt-tip cannula to insert the threads beneath the skin. This minimizes trauma to the surrounding tissue.
Depending on your customized treatment plan, 4 to 12 threads may be used. Once these are inserted, we gently pull the threads to create lift and anchor them into place. In most cases, the procedure can take up to 60 minutes to finish. In addition to the immediate lift you experience, PDO MAX threads stimulate your body’s natural collagen and elastin production. This improves your skin’s tone, firmness, and elasticity in the months following your treatment.
After your PDO MAX thread lift, you will have minimal downtime. However, there are some specific strategies you can use during your recovery to obtain the best results. You should avoid strenuous activity, dental work, facial massages, and wide facial movements for 10 days. This allows the area to heal undisturbed.
Sleep on your back with your head elevated for the first week and apply cold compresses if you experience any minor swelling or discomfort. Use only gentle skin care products and avoid exfoliation for up to two weeks. Because these threads are absorbable, repeat treatments may be performed as needed to maintain or improve your outcome over time.
At North Texas Plastic Surgery, our plastic surgeons take an expert, anatomy-driven approach to every procedure they offer and perform. This is especially important when it comes to thread lifts, as your results depend on choosing the right type of thread, placement angles, and lift vectors. We achieve natural, subtle lifts that refresh and refine your face without compromising your expression.
