Frequently Asked Questions
PDO Threadlifts
What is a PDO Threadlift?
A PDO thread lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure used to lift and tighten sagging skin tissues. PDO stands for polydioxanone, which is a biocompatible and absorbable material commonly used in surgeries. In a PDO thread lift, these threads are inserted into the skin using a thin needle or cannula. Once inserted, the threads are gently pulled to lift and tighten the skin. The procedure is often used to lift sagging skin on the face, neck, and jowls, as well as other areas of the body such as the breasts and buttocks. PDO thread lifts are less invasive than traditional surgical facelifts, and they require minimal downtime. The results typically last for about 12-18 months, depending on the individual's skin condition and lifestyle factors. It's not a replacement for a face lift, but for someone who doesn't want surgery, it's a great option. It can even be used in someone who's already had a facelift.
Are Threadlifts painful?
Most people say the procedure is actually very comfortable. Sometimes, injecting the local anesthetic is the worst part, as lidocaine tends to have a little sting. I use a buffer with my lidocaine injections to eliminate the sting. Nonetheless, everyone experiences pain differently and the amount of pain will depend on the person and area being treated.
Where can PDO threads be used?
Threads can be used in various areas of the face and body to lift and tighten sagging skin and improve overall skin texture. Some common areas where PDO threads are used include the cheeks, jawline, neck, decolette, abdomen and thighs. Some threads are used to lift sagging skin and other threads are used to improve texture and overall appearance.
How much do Threadlifts cost?
The cost of a thread lift procedure can vary widely depending on several factors, including the area of the body being treated, the number of threads used and the type of threads (smooth or barbed). On average, the cost of a thread lift procedure can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. Packages are available that are less expensive than individual threads, but threads can also be purchased individually and over time. There's an affordable option for everyone!
How long do Threadlifts last?
The threads themselves will dissolve within 2-6 months, depending on the size of the thread. However, as the thread is dissolving, new collagen is being formed that will help hold the skin in place. Most people will see results for about 1-2 years, but many see longer lasting results. Adding "touch ups" over time will give the most lasting results.

Microneedling
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries (tiny punctures) in the skin's surface. These micro-injuries stimulate the body's natural wound healing process, leading to increased collagen and elastin production. This is exactly the same concept used in treating wounds and it's what I've done for the past 10 years! Microneedling is commonly used to treat acne, rosacea, scarring, hair restoration and overall improvement in the appearance of the skin.
What are growth factors and how do they help when used with microneedling?
Growth factors are naturally occurring proteins in the body that play a crucial role in cell growth, proliferation, and healing. In the context of skincare and cosmetic procedures like microneedling, growth factors are derived from various sources, including human stem cells, plants, or other biotechnological methods. When applied to the skin, growth factors can have several beneficial effects including stimulating collagen production, improving skin texture, minimizing scar tissue and enhancing skin hydration.
Can microneedling help with Hair Restoration?
Microneedling produces "micro channels" on the scalp. When it's used in combination with growth factors and fibroblasts derived from stem cells, the growth factors can stimulate dormant hair follicles, promoting regrowth of hair. As a result, hair looks fuller and healthier.
