Read the further part of the text to get the answers to these questions!
What are the effects of PDO lifting threads?
The PDO threads is one of the safest ways to make the skin firmer and smoother. The effects that you will achieve after treatment with the use of lifting threads are long-lasting. They last even up to two years, despite that the threads melt under skin already after six months from their application.
The fibroblasts, i.e. cells of the connective tissue in charge of production of elastin and collagen, are stimulated through the implantation of PDO threads. Moreover, lifting threads support and speed up the synthesis of the natural hyaluronic acid. All of this makes the skin firmer, more flexible and more resilient.
Treatments with the use of PDO threads are practically painless, thanks to which the patients decide willingly to undergo them. Lifting thread is to be located on a sterile, very thin needle, then applied in the determined area of the skin. The PDO threads vary in terms of length and thickness, which contribute to a vast scope of their application. The doctor chooses the proper type of the thread in order to attain the desired effect.
Treatments with the use of PDO lifting threads bring the following effects:
- smoothing out and reduction of wrinkles,
- bringing firmness and flexibility to the facial skin,
- reduction of pores,
- reduction of ageing symptoms,
- lifting of the face oval,
- lifting of the skin.
Treatments with the use of lifting threads do not require cuts on the skin, which is their great advantage. Furthermore, the effects are visible immediately! There is no obstacle to combine them with other treatments of the aesthetic medicine.
Action and application of the hyaluronic acid
The hyaluronic acid is a biostimulator. This means that it stimulates the fibroblasts to production of the natural hyaluronic acid. Moreover, this substance absorbs water which brings an effect of a hydrated and firm skin. The safest and the least invasive way of application of the hyaluronic acid is mesotherapy. The substance applied in this way acts locally, by nourishing and regenerating the area of the skin which is subject to the treatment.
The hyaluronic acid is one of the substances that are used most frequently in the aesthetic medicine. The human body reacts well to it, since it is also naturally present in the skin. The hyaluronic acid is used most often for the wrinkles filling treatment.
Treatments with the use of the hyaluronic acid take a few minutes on average. The results are visible immediately, however, due to a swelling of the face caused by the treatment, it is necessary to wait about two or three days for full effects. They last from one to six and even to eighteen months! Through the injection of the hyaluronic acid deeply into the skin, it is possible to hydrate it properly, as well as to reduce the wrinkles. Effect? A face that looks younger and is firmer!
Which treatment should be chosen?
Both the treatments with the use of PDO lifting threads and those based on the subcutaneous application of the hyaluronic acid are safe and efficient. In both cases, the treatments do not require any cut. So, what to take into account in the case of such an unobvious choice?
PDO threads have a wider scope of application, and the effects that they bring last for much longer. On the other hand, the hyaluronic acid fills in the wrinkles perfectly, is naturally present in the human body and its application takes only a few minutes! Therefore, the choice of the proper preparation should preferably be left in hands of an experienced doctor who will carry out the treatment in question. After all, the final effect is the most important thing!
