It is a minimally invasive treatment, a bloodless one that aims at non-surgical tightening and of facial/neck and body skin. The results are extremely satisfying and impressive even in some cases, especially in combination with other non-surgical regenerative treatments. The threads are made of polydiaxone or polylactic acid, completely safe absorbable materials. They are divided into two major categories: simple threads (PDO) and lifting threads (Pull Cog).
These are fully absorbable and are inserted under the skin with the help of a small scarless needle. A tiny filament mesh is inserted in the case of PDOs, which is positioned in the area almost painlessly to defeat skin drop through the collagenesis they initially cause but also through the fibrosis they create after absorption in 2-3 months time. The production of collagen and elastin and the angiogenesis they cause continue for 1, 5 to 2 years. In the case of the Pull Cogs there are small cones along the thread causing immediate lifting effects on loose skin.
