Contour threads, also known as thread lifts or PDO thread lifts, are a non-surgical cosmetic procedure used to lift and tighten sagging facial skin. This technique involves inserting dissolvable threads made of polydioxanone (PDO) material under the skin through small incisions. Once the threads are in place, they can be gently tightened, providing an immediate lifting effect.
Over time, the body gradually absorbs the PDO threads, stimulating collagen production, which helps improve skin elasticity and firmness. This treatment is often used to address sagging in the mid-face, jowls, and neck areas.
It’s essential to consult with a qualified and experienced medical professional if you’re considering a contour thread procedure to discuss whether it’s suitable for your specific goals and skin condition, as well as potential risks and benefits.
