The MEDiTHREAD or PDO (Polydioxanone) thread lift treatment is one of our most popular treatments here at Pacific Beach Med Spa. PDO sutures are placed into the skin and under the dermis. PDO threads are completely dissolvable and disappear in about 4-6 months, leaving behind increased collagen production. The thread lift procedure can result in an increased firmness and elasticity of the skin. While lifting may be visible in immediately treated areas, skin improvement in others may take up to 3 weeks or longer for the results to be fully noticeable. The aesthetic results can last from 9-12 months.
