Non-Surgical Facelift

A non-surgical facelift can be performed in the comfort of the a La Mode Medspa. This minimally invasive procedure typically takes about one-hour to perform and is a great alternative to plastic surgery.

PDO is short for poolydioxanone dissolvable threads which are used to lift and contour your jaws, cheeks, eyebrows, forehead and stimulate natural collagen. This common treatment can help treat mild to moderate skin laxity by contracting, shaping and lifting the facial skin.

Typically, the synthetic PDO thread a La Mode Medspa in Bakersfield offers four types of threads:

Smooth Threads – A type of skin booster, smooth threads ti
Twist Threads
Barbed Threads
Molded Threads

Each type of thread lift works in two ways. First the temporary stitches pull back or up your skin giving the treated area a tighter look. Next, your body will naturally produce more collagen to treat the threads like an injury.

How long do PDO thread lifts last?

On average, for most patients the PDO threads will dissolve after about 6 months.

How do I sleep after a non surgical facelift?

It is recommended that you sleep on your back with your head propped up to minimize swelling. We do not recommend sleeping on your side or stomach for at last 10 days after your procedure.

How long does bruising last after a PDO treatment?

Patients may experience bruising, swelling, or tenderness at the suture site between 3 to 5 days.
