Refining Skin
Architecture
A minimally invasive approach to smoothing texture and supporting natural collagen production for firmer, healthier-looking skin.
Understanding Smooth PDO Threads
Polydioxanone (PDO) Smooth Threads are thin, absorbable surgical sutures placed beneath the skin's surface. Unlike "barbed" threads designed for mechanical lifting, smooth threads act as a biological scaffold.
As the threads naturally dissolve over several months, they stimulate a healing response known as neocollagenesis. This process replaces the thread with your body's own collagen and elastin, improving skin density, texture, and elasticity from within.
Clinical Philosophy
Precision & Biostimulation
Our approach prioritizes skin quality over alteration. We use smooth threads to reinforce the skin's foundation, particularly in areas where the dermis has thinned with age.
Strategic Placement
We place threads in a mesh-like pattern to maximize collagen synthesis across the treatment area.
Safety First
PDO is a biocompatible material used safely in surgery for decades. We adhere to strict sterile protocols.
Natural Results
The goal is not to change your face, but to restore a firmer, smoother canvas.
Areas of Improvement
Smooth threads are versatile and can be used to support skin structure in areas difficult to treat with other modalities.
Fine Lines
Softening static lines around the mouth (smoker's lines), cheeks, and eyes that may not respond fully to neurotoxins.
Crepey Skin
Improving the texture of thin, crepey skin on the cheeks, neck, and jawline by thickening the dermis.
Acne Scarring
Acting as a subdermal support to help smooth out certain types of acne scars when combined with other therapies.
Neck Lines
Addressing horizontal "tech neck" lines by stimulating collagen directly within the crease.
Collagen Loss
General biostimulation for patients noticing the early signs of volume and elasticity loss.
The experience
What to Expect
PDO Smooth Threads are a minimally invasive office procedure. While recovery is generally quick, understanding the process ensures the best experience.
The Procedure
Numbing cream is applied for comfort. Threads are inserted via small needles. The process typically takes 30-45 minutes depending on the area treated.
Recovery
Mild bruising and swelling are common and usually resolve within a few days to a week. You can typically return to daily activities immediately.
Results
Results are gradual. You may see initial improvement in texture, but the peak collagen effect is typically observed 3-4 months post-treatment.
