Ever observed how, with age, skin tends to lose its firmness and elasticity? This isn’t just a mere observation. By the time one reaches their 70s, there’s a significant reduction in skin thickness, nearly up to 80%.

 

The primary reason behind this is the diminishing levels of collagen in our body. Collagen, a natural protein, plays a pivotal role in maintaining our skin’s volume and suppleness. As its levels deplete over time, our skin starts to sag and develop wrinkles, leading to a more aged appearance.

 

Traditionally, the solution to this was face-lift surgery, which, while effective in enhancing one’s appearance by tightening the skin, is invasive, costly, and demands a considerable recovery period. However, for those seeking a less invasive alternative in Northern Ireland, the PDO thread lift in Belfast offers a promising solution to address skin sagging and rejuvenate one’s youthful glow.

 

What exactly does a PDO thread lift entail?

 

This innovative procedure utilises polydioxanone (PDO) threads, a specialised material, to enhance and firm the skin on your face without the need for surgical intervention. Depending on the specific region of the face you wish to target, these threads, also referred to as sutures, are carefully placed to achieve a lifting and tightening effect.

 

But the benefits of a PDO thread lift go beyond mere tightening. Once these threads are introduced into the body, they act as a catalyst for the production of new collagen. As the body recognises the sutured area, it initiates a natural healing process, stimulating collagen growth.

 

Despite the presence of these sutures, you won’t experience any sensation, but over time, you’ll observe a marked improvement in the texture, firmness, and volume of your skin. It’s a subtle transformation that enhances your natural beauty without the need for invasive surgery.

 

Discover the Benefits of PDO Thread Lifts

 

The PDO thread lift in Belfast procedure is both swift and virtually pain-free. Before beginning, I ensure the area being treated is adequately numbed. The entire thread lift process is efficiently completed within a span of 30 to 45 minutes. Expect a minor recovery period, and you will be able to resume daily activities within days.

 

Prior to the procedure, we’ll gently remove any makeup and thoroughly cleanse the targeted area. To ensure maximum comfort, a local anaesthetic is applied. The PDO threads are then introduced using a cannula, a technique that significantly reduces potential swelling and bruising.

 

 

The results?

 

They’re visible right after the treatment. While the threads themselves are non-permanent and remain in the skin for up to half a year, the uplifting effect they provide is enduring. This is because the PDO threads stimulate facial tissues to produce fresh collagen, the effects of which can be enjoyed for up to two years.

 

Post-treatment reactions are typically mild and short-lived. It’s common to experience minor swelling, and occasional bruising might occur. However, these effects usually subside within a few days.

 

The majority of our clients experience minimal to no post-treatment reactions. For optimal results and safety, we recommend avoiding beauty treatments and extreme temperatures for approximately two weeks post-procedure.

 

Beyond just facial enhancements, PDO threads can be an alternative to fillers, especially when the goal is to restore the cheeks to their natural position. Their application isn’t restricted to the face; they’re also effective in addressing sagging skin on the neck, knees, and chest.

 

For those seeking a holistic transformation, we often suggest combining PDO thread lifts with other treatments. Pairing threads with laser procedures, chemical peels, neurotoxins, or specialised facials can deliver unparalleled rejuvenation.
