What is a PDO thread?
PDO threads are made up of a material called polydioxanone. This is an absorbable, flexible material that is as thin as a few hairs. This type of material has been used in Cardiac and Pediatric surgery for at least 50 years with an excellent safety profile.
When inserted into the subcutaneous tissues of the skin, it creates an intensive collagen stimulation that produces visible and long lasting tightening of the skin.
