Thread lift procedures are minimally invasive, and while some bruising, swelling, or soreness may occur after the treatment, the procedure itself is generally not painful. Local anesthetic is applied to ensure maximum comfort during the process.
PDO threads are most commonly used on the face and neck to lift and tighten sagging skin. They can also be used on other areas of the body, such as the upper arms, stomach, above the knees, and thighs, to achieve a firmer appearance.
During the procedure, PDO threads are inserted into the skin using a cannula. Once the threads are positioned correctly, they are released, and the cannula is removed. A local anesthetic is applied to ensure the procedure is as comfortable as possible.
