PDO Threads in Dearborn, Michigan (MI)

Beauty and Wellness Center is a leading provider of PDO Threads in Dearborn, Michigan.

 PDO threads are an innovative cosmetic treatment comprised of dissolvable sutures made from a substance similar to sugar. These threads are designed to gently dissolve under the skin over time.

Their unique feature is their ability to stimulate collagen production and induce a mild fibrotic response in the treated areas.

At Beauty and Wellness Center, PDO threads are used to gradually lift and firm the skin, providing an effective way to maintain a youthful appearance.

What Are PDO Threads?

For years, surgical facelifts were the primary option for patients seeking noticeable improvements in facial skin tightening. This invasive approach was so effective that even individuals with minimal sagging often chose surgery.

However, anti-aging treatments have evolved significantly, introducing less invasive techniques designed to smooth wrinkles and tighten the skin.

One of these advanced methods is the non-surgical facelift using PDO (Polydioxanone) threads, also known as COGS.

How Do PDO Threads Work?

PDO threads are inserted into the subcutaneous layer of fat, creating a two-phase lifting effect:

First, the threads mechanically tighten the targeted facial area.

Second, the threads stimulate collagen and elastin production around the treated area. This biological response extends the lifting effect for 2 to 3 years, even though the threads dissolve after approximately six months.

This process improves skin thickness and elasticity. The degree of facial tightening depends on the number of threads used and their placement.

What Areas Can Be Treated With PDO Threads?

PDO threads can rejuvenate several facial regions, including:

• Forehead (eyebrow lifting)

• Midface (cheek area)

• Lower face

• Neck

• Combination treatments of the above areas

The procedure typically takes about one hour. Local anesthesia is applied, making the treatment painless. Mild swelling or bruising may occur for 3 to 4 days. Patients are advised to avoid sun exposure and facial movements that stretch the skin during the initial recovery period.

Results vary depending on individual factors, including the amount of subcutaneous fat available for thread anchoring.

PDO Threads Treatment Guide

Before Treatment

Patients begin with a consultation to discuss aesthetic goals, assess skin condition, and determine whether PDO threads are the appropriate treatment option. This is an opportunity to ask questions and address concerns.

Patients may be advised to avoid medications and supplements that increase bruising or bleeding, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and fish oil, for about a week before treatment. Smoking and alcohol consumption should also be avoided prior to the procedure.

During Treatment

Although minimally invasive, local anesthesia is applied to ensure comfort.

Using fine needles, PDO threads are inserted into the subcutaneous layer of the skin based on the desired lift. The threads anchor and lift the skin, and any excess thread is trimmed. The procedure usually lasts between 30 minutes and one hour.

Patients may notice immediate improvement, while collagen stimulation and skin restructuring continue over the following months.

After Treatment

Patients should follow post-treatment instructions carefully. These include avoiding vigorous exercise, dental procedures, and facials for a couple of weeks. Rubbing or massaging the treated areas should also be avoided to prevent thread displacement.

What Is the Recovery Time for a PDO Thread Lift?

PDO threads require minimal downtime. Most patients return to normal activities within a few days. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising may occur but typically resolves within one week.

How Long Does a PDO Thread Lift Last?

Results are visible immediately and typically last between 6 to 18 months. While the threads dissolve naturally, collagen stimulation and skin-tightening effects can last up to 3 years.

Follow-up appointments may be recommended to evaluate results and determine whether additional treatments are needed.
