restore a young & healthy appearance PDO NON-SURGICAL FACELIFT

Unlike surgical facelifts, there are far less risks with the non-invasive PDO facelift. Some side effects of this treatment include visible scaring or bruising that will last one to two days. Also, with the microscopically small threads, there is a possibility one can break, thus requiring another thread to be placed. Lastly, there could be a little rippling, but as the sutures dissolve the unevenness goes away.

The amount of discomfort is minimal. To help alleviate any uneasiness, we place a local dental anesthetic in the area where we will be working.

There will be minor bruising and swelling that is minimal enough that it can be covered with makeup for the one to two days while it lasts. We recommend that you get PDO at least two weeks prior to a major event such as a wedding or high school reunion.

Yes, PDO is completely reversible. If you don’t continue to get the treatment, your skin will return to where it was previously.

Yes! For our Denver PDO clients that want additional fillers to provide additional support for sagging skin, we use Juvederm to give this extra lift.

PDO treatments last about 60 to 90 minutes.

We place about three to seven sutures per side during the PDO treatment.

PDO is an excellent treatment for people with mild to moderate sagging. A no-commitment consultation is required prior to treatment to determine your eligibility.

During a PDO treatment, we will draw lines on the face to ensure exact placement of the threads. We will always take photos, so you can see the difference before and after the treatment. We then take the needle from a tiny point near the eye and thread the suture from this area down the face.

It will pull the corners of your mouth and jowls up. It will pull the area near the nasal labial fold back and it will reduce smile lines and give your face a nice sharp, youthful definition.

Yes, two weeks after your PDO treatment you will need to return to Denver Laser Solution for a follow up visit. We can then discuss if more sutures would be beneficial. If you would like to have more sutures placed, they can be inserted during your follow up visit.

The PDO procedure and thread has been used for years in heart and spinal surgery. PDO has also been used aesthetically for non-surgical facelifts and wrinkle reduction in Asia and Europe for almost two decades. Now that the FDA has approved PDO for aesthetic use in the US, everyone here can enjoy the many benefits of a low cost, low-risk non-surgical facelift.

Although this treatment has been used for non-surgical facelifts and wrinkle reduction in Europe and Asia for decades, it was only approved for aesthetic use in the US within the last four years. In the US, there are only a handful of experts with the appropriate training and experience to perform this up and coming procedure – and Denver Laser Solutions is one of them.
