Treatment overview
PDO Mono Threads rejuvenate the skin by stimulating collagen production. The PDO Mono Threads are placed under the skin into the sub-dermal layers via a cannula.
Over the course of around 3 to 6 months, the threads will slowly dissolve – stimulating collagen synthesis to tighten and firm the skin. Due to this, results will gradually improve over time as new collagen is produced. The results from PDO Mono Threads typically last for up to 12 months

What are PDO mono threads?
PDO mono threads, short for Polydioxanone mono threads, are a type of minimally invasive cosmetic treatment. These threads are made from a biocompatible material and are used to tighten and rejuvenate the skin. They are inserted under the skin’s surface to stimulate collagen production, resulting in improved skin texture and firmness.
Who are PDO mono threads suitable for?
PDO mono threads are suitable for those that are looking to tighten and firm the skin. PDO mono threads can also be used as a preventative treatment to target mild sagging or loss of volume. PDO mono threads are not suitable for clients with bleeding disorders, those taking blood thinning medication, or women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. For patients with very thin skin, other anti-ageing treatments such as Thermage FLX may be a better alternative.
How many treatments are required?
Only 1 treatment is required to see full results from PDO mono threads.
How long do results last?
Results can last for approximately 9 to 12 months. However, it’s important to note that individual experiences may vary based on factors such as the patient’s age, skin condition, lifestyle, and the number of threads used. To maintain your treatment results, we recommend speaking to our cosmetic nurses about devising a skin treatment plan for you.
Will the PDO mono threads stay in my skin permanently?
PDO mono threads will gradually dissolve over the course of about 3 to 6 months as new collagen is formed.
