In recent years, the demand for non-surgical cosmetic procedures has skyrocketed, and with good reason. Non-surgical facelifts, which include procedures like the PDO thread lift and Potenza RF microneedling, are popular choices for treatment as more people seek to maintain a youthful appearance without the downtime associated with surgery.
At Dallas Surgical Arts, Dr. Randy Sanovich offers this incredible treatment to help patients achieve a rejuvenated look without going under the knife.
What is a PDO Thread Lift?
A PDO (polydioxanone) thread lift uses bio-absorbable threads to lift and tighten skin using a minimally invasive approach. Unlike traditional facelifts, which require significant surgery and recovery time, a PDO thread lift offers a quicker, non-surgical alternative with immediate results. This procedure is ideal for individuals who are looking to address sagging in the face, neck, and jawline. It’s a fantastic option for those who want to rejuvenate their appearance without the commitment of surgery.
The PDO thread lift works by inserting these bioabsorbable threads into the skin to provide an immediate lifting effect. Over time, the threads naturally dissolve, stimulating collagen production in the process, lifting the skin and also improves its texture and elasticity.
How the Procedure Works
The PDO thread lift typically takes about an hour to complete. It’s designed to be straightforward and comfortable, with minimal downtime required.
Using a fine needle, Dr. Sanovich inserts the PDO threads into the skin. The threads are strategically placed to create a supportive structure that lifts and tightens the skin. The procedure is highly customizable, allowing Dr. Sanovich to target specific areas of concern, such as cheeks, jowls, or neck.
One of the most exciting aspects of the PDO thread lift is that the lifting effect is visible immediately after the procedure. As the threads stimulate collagen production over time, you’ll continue to see even more improvements in skin texture and elasticity for several months following the treatment!
Benefits of PDO Thread Lift
The PDO thread lift offers numerous advantages, making it an appealing option for those seeking a non-surgical facelift.
- Non-Surgical: The procedure doesn’t require incisions or sutures, which means there’s minimal risk of scarring and a quicker recovery time compared to surgical facelifts .
- Immediate Results: Patients can enjoy an instant lift right after the procedure, with results continuing to improve as the threads stimulate collagen production. This means you can achieve a more youthful appearance without waiting weeks or months for full results .
- Natural-Looking: Unlike more invasive procedures, the PDO thread lift enhances your natural features without the "overdone" look that can sometimes result from traditional facelifts. The subtle lift and collagen boost result in a refreshed and youthful appearance that looks entirely natural.
- Stimulates Collagen Production: The PDO threads encourage your body’s natural collagen production, which is essential for maintaining skin firmness and elasticity. This ongoing collagen production helps to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and give your skin a healthy, youthful glow .
One of the biggest advantages of the PDO thread lift is the quick recovery time. Most patients can resume their normal activities within a few days, making it a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.
Potenza RF Microneedling
Combining treatments like PDO threads and the power of radiofrequency (RF) energy with microneedling can give you additional benefits that rejuvenate your skin. Potenza treatment stands out for its versatility, effectiveness, and ability to cater to a wide range of skin concerns.
Potenza RF Microneedling is unique in that it integrates traditional microneedling with advanced RF energy. The microneedles create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing response and encouraging collagen and elastin production. At the same time, RF energy is delivered deep into the skin layers, heating the tissue and promoting even more collagen remodeling. This dual-action approach provides superior skin-tightening and rejuvenation results compared to microneedling or RF treatments alone.
One of the most significant advantages of Potenza RF Microneedling is its versatility. It can be customized to suit different skin types and concerns. Whether it’s addressing fine lines, acne scars, uneven skin texture, or skin laxity, Potenza allows Dr. Sanovich to adjust settings for depth, energy levels, and treatment duration to achieve the best outcomes for each patient. This level of personalization ensures that every treatment is tailored to you.
Unlike some laser treatments that may pose a risk for patients with darker skin tones, Potenza RF microneedling is safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types and tones. The radiofrequency energy is delivered in a controlled manner that minimizes the risk of hyperpigmentation or scarring. This makes it an inclusive option that caters to a broader range of patients looking for effective skin rejuvenation that may not otherwise be a candidate for other treatments.
