During your initial consultation with Dr. Judge, she will discuss the PDO Thread Lift procedure and determine if this is. a good treatment option for you. For some patients, a traditional facelift may be more beneficial. However, those who are experiencing mild or moderate sagging can receive a lot of benefits from this treatment.
Once you have booked your thread lift session, Dr. Judge’s office will coordinate the date and time of your treatment here in San Francisco. Dr. Judge will also take any pre-operative photos, review the initial dimple placement location, and ask any final questions.
To minimize the treatment side effects, your procedure will begin with a small injection of local anesthetic. After the area is sufficiently numb, we place the suture just below the skin. When placed under the epidermis, the cones that are part of the threads will provide an instant tightening and smoothing effect, giving your look a natural lift. Over the course of roughly 18 months, the sutures will safely dissolve, stimulating natural collagen production and offering long-term results. The PDO Thread Lift procedure lasts about 15-30 minutes and the majority of patients report mild to no pain.
Unlike traditional surgery, this facelift involves no cutting, no deep tissue manipulation, and recovery is very quick. This procedure is more like getting dermal fillers than having surgery.
After your appointment, some minor swelling or bruising may be present for up to 48 hours. During this time it is important to avoid strenuous activity to prevent further irritation. Some patients report feeling a small pinch during the procedure, but the comment we hear most is “that was easy” after it is over. Results of this treatment tend to last for an average of 18-24 months.
