No one escapes the aging process, and once it starts, it seems like there’s no way around it. However, there is an effective treatment that can turn back the clock on aging, and we offer it. At Revive Wellness Group, with offices conveniently located in Gibsonburg and Perrysburg, OH, we offer an anti-aging treatment called the PDO thread lift that uses nova threads to lift, tighten and rejuvenate the face in a simple yet effective treatment.
How Do Nova Threads Work?
Nova threads are dissolvable PDO threads that work by lifting and tightening the skin. These threads are so effective because they address skin laxity and lift the skin to restore youth to the face. These sutures have been used in the medical world for many decades to help perform surgical procedures. When used during cosmetic treatments like a thread lift, nova threads lift and tighten the skin to increase collagen and elastin production.
During the treatment process, a cannula will be used to insert the nova thread just below the surface of your skin into strategic locations of the face to redefine and recontour the facial profile to create a younger and more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
What Are Nova Threads?
Nova threads are a type of PDO threads that come in different shapes and textures. They are made of fully absorbable material, and when inserted into the skin, they lift the area and promote collagen and elastin production. The body will break these threads down and absorb them within four to six months of your treatment.
You don’t have to worry about any scarring or adverse reactions but instead can expect increased collagen production and a stronger skin structure that will remain intact for 15 months. Nova threads are made right here in the United States and come in different textures, including barbed, smooth, and twisted threads. They’re made of high-quality ingredients and can be customized to the needs of the patient.
What Can They Treat?
PDO threads are designed to treat the middle and lower half of the face. They can lift and tighten the entire treatment area and are most often used to help restore youth and definition to the chin, cheeks, upper neck, and jawline. We can customize this treatment to meet your aging concerns. When you come in for your consultation, we will review your preferred treatment area and develop a treatment plan that’s right for you.
What Kind of Results Can I Expect?
Once you experience a PDO thread lift with nova threads, you can expect your results to last for several months. While this treatment is often referred to as a non-surgical facelift, it won’t replicate the results of a facelift, but you will achieve some long-lasting effects. Most patients enjoy their results for six months or longer. It typically takes anywhere from four to six months to experience the full effects of this treatment.
What Happens During the Treatment Process?
Your Initial Consultation
The first step in this process is an initial consultation at our office. This consultation allows us to evaluate your areas of concern in person. We will also discuss your medical history and goals and evaluate your skin condition at this consultation.
Then, we will confirm whether you are a good candidate for a PDO thread lift. We will describe the process in detail, the results that you can expect to achieve, and how long it will take to achieve those results. It’s important that you provide us with a complete list of any supplements or medication you are currently taking and any cosmetic treatments you have undergone.
The Treatment Process
Before beginning this treatment, we will numb the planned treatment area and then use a cannula and a specialized needle to insert the PDO threads into specific and strategic areas of the skin. We will secure these threads into the skin, and the body, which views these threads as foreign elements, will increase collagen and elastin production over time.
This process will be repeated until each of your target areas contains a thread. These threads will immediately begin to lift the skin and improve your overall appearance. You can expect the entire process to take anywhere from 45 minutes to one hour.
The Aftercare
Most patients spend seven to ten days recovering from the treatment but can return to work. We will typically ask patients to avoid strenuous activity for two weeks to help protect the treatment area and allow it to heal so that the PDO threads can effectively begin their anti-aging work.
What Are the Benefits of a PDO Thread Lift?
This treatment has many different benefits, and once you experience those benefits for yourself, you’ll realize just how powerful nova threads can be. These threads deliver extremely natural-looking results that last for several months at a time. Patients from different walks of life are turning to the thread lift to combat aging and help increase their confidence in their appearance.
It Delivers Long-Lasting Results
One of the benefits of PDO threads is that the results last for several months at a time. Your results will continue to improve as time passes, and you’ll get to experience a lifted and more youthful appearance for six months or longer. With just a couple of treatments each year, you can help your body produce more collagen and elastin, combat aging, and look and feel your best in a completely natural way.
It’s Anti-Aging
If you are looking for a way to combat aging, a PDO thread lift with nova threads is the perfect treatment that can do just that. It delivers quick lifting and tightening results that can help turn back the clock on aging, reverse sagging skin, address skin laxity, and increase collagen production.
It Will Improve Your Confidence
Your body will age, but that doesn’t mean you have to sit back and suffer through the aging process. If your confidence has been affected by how aging has affected your face, this treatment can help improve your self-esteem by restoring youth to your skin. It will help you address skin laxity on your face, chin, and neck and deliver some incredible results.
It’s Safe
Not only is a PDO lift effective, but it’s completely safe. These threads are not new. They’ve been used in the medical world for decades, so both their makeup and use have been studied and confirmed to be an effective way to help the body increase collagen production.
The PDO thread lift has been FDA-approved as an effective anti-aging treatment designed to lift the face, tighten the skin, and combat some of the more advanced signs of aging that affect the middle and lower areas of the face. Additionally, you won’t have to worry about side effects or allergic reactions post-treatment.
It Doesn’t Require Surgery
Another one of the many benefits of a PDO thread lift is that it is completely non-surgical. Some patients, while they do want to experience a treatment that delivers anti-aging results, aren’t ready to commit to a facelift. A facelift requires preparation, a financial commitment, recovery, and downtime. When you schedule this treatment, you won’t need sedation, the treatment isn’t invasive, and you won’t have to plan around a significant recovery period.
