THREAD LIFT FIRST LIFT PDO
One of the cause of skin aging is a damage to the collagen and elastic fibers and disappearance of hyaluronic acid in tissues. As a result of the destruction of the base created by the collagen and elastin, skin becomes looser and saggy. Your face starts to look sad and gloomy and your cheeks and lip corners are drooping. Lines around the mouth, nose and wrinkles on your neck become deeper.
To prevent these changes you can undergo a treatment called First Lift. The safest product for performing such procedure are lifting threads PDO. The PDO thread has no cones or hooks that lifts the tissue. Lifting effect is achieved thanks to a special braid of threads and properties, that stimulate the synthesis of collagen and elastin, thanks to polydioxanone - the substance of which lifting threads are made.
PDO (polydioxanone) is a material known and used in medicine for many years in the seams of the skin and subcutaneous in plastic surgery, gastroenterology, urology, gynecology and ophthalmology. When it was noticed that the presence of the PDO thread in the tissue strengthens the muscles and tendons of the body, the method has been applied also in aesthetic medicine. Currently, the PDO method is used in Japan, USA, Brazil, Russia and Western Europe. This product has a CE safety certificate and can be used all throughout the European Union.
PDO LIFTING THREADS – HOW IT WORKS
PDO lifting threads are placed in a sterile, very thin needle, with which we inject them in a certain area of the skin of the face, neck and body. By injecting PDO thread into the skin we influence on strengthening flabby tissues to obtain an immediate improvement in its appearance. The technique of injecting PDO threads is based on the use of natural skin tension lines, which also causes an effect similar to a surgical facelift.
Based on clinical observations, it was found that the PDO thread lifting stimulates neocolagenesis process in the tissues - the production of new collagen is responsible for tightness and firmness. In addition, stimulation of fibroblasts results in stimulating the synthesis of elastin, responsible for firmness and elasticity. These processes start after approximately 10-14 days after treatment and last throughout the whole period of the thread being in the body (up to 7-8 months).
In vivo studies also found that the effect of PDO causes synthesis of the natural (endogenous) hyaluronic acid. Thanks to this mechanism, our skin, where we inject the PDO thread becomes firmer, more supple and moisturized.
With PDO threads we can also reduce the strength of mimic muscles of the face and get aesthetic effects similar to the botulinum toxin - relaxation of muscles and smoothing facial features. The aesthetic effect is more natural than injections of botulinum toxin, because we do not stop mimic muscles, but we are only making them relaxed.
