Introduction to PDO Mono Threads

PDO Mono Threads are a minimally invasive treatment designed to rejuvenate and tighten skin by stimulating natural collagen production. This comprehensive guide will walk you through how PDO Mono Threads work and what you can expect.

Polydioxanone (PDO) threads are fine, absorbable sutures placed under the skin to create a supportive mesh-like structure. As the threads dissolve, they trigger collagen formation, improving skin elasticity, reducing fine lines, and restoring a firmer, more youthful appearance. Results develop gradually and continue to improve over time, offering a subtle yet natural lift without surgery.

THE SCIENCE

How PDO Mono Threads Work

Threads made of polydioxanone (PDO) are gently inserted into the skin using a fine needle. As the threads dissolve over months, they stimulate fibroblasts to lay down new collagen. This creates subtle tightening and thickening of the skin.

1

Preparation

The skin is cleansed, and numbing may be applied.

2

Delivery

Fine PDO threads are placed under the skin using a cannula or needle.

3

Absorption

Threads dissolve slowly, leaving behind fresh collagen that supports the skin.
