PDO Threads in Delray Beach

PDO threads are specially-made threads created from polydioxanone (PDO), a compound commonly used for surgical sutures. In essence, our PDO threads in Delray Beach are sutures. The difference is that your provider inserts them completely beneath the surface of your skin.

We use Mint PDO threads that contain tiny barbs that anchor into your tissue. Your provider will gently pull the threads to lift sagging skin around the target area. In addition to these lifting benefits, PDO threads also stimulate the production of collagen inside your skin.

Collagen is a key protein responsible for your skin’s structure and support. With increased collagen, your skin becomes better equipped to resist future sagging!

Over time, the PDO threads will begin to dissolve, and eventually they will disappear completely. The benefits can last much longer, however. Most patients see improved skin for up to 2 years after getting PDO threads.

In Delray Beach, our practice is the premier destination for PDO threads. If you’re interested in visiting Delray Laser and Medical Spa, just let us know and we’ll start by scheduling you for a consultation. At your consultation, our aesthetics team will talk through your skin concerns and determine if PDO threads could be an effective treatment for you. We want to know all about your unique needs so we can provide the best care tailored precisely to you.

Once we understand your goals, we’ll schedule your first treatment session. For many patients, we can insert your threads in just one session. But for more dramatic transformations, we may need to schedule an additional appointment.

At your session, you’ll be able to ask us any last-minute questions, and then we’ll insert your threads. We gently insert each thread into your target area using cannulas, and then we adhere them inside your skin by the barbed edges. Next we tighten your skin using the threads and let them slip completely under your skin.

There’s no major downtime needed after getting PDO threads in Delray Beach! You may experience some mild discomfort in the treatment area, but you shouldn’t feel any major pain. You’ll be able to return to your normal activities immediately after your session. However, you should avoid excessively rubbing or irritating the treatment area. Your threads need time to fully integrate into your body, and disrupting this process can cause pain and inhibit their effectiveness.

At Delray Laser and Medical Spa, we know that every patient deserves the best care. That’s why we’ve partnered with several providers to offer for our patients.
