PDO Thread Lift Brisbane

PDO Thread Lifts, icon 2

At Dr Scott Horsburgh’s Brisbane clinic, PDO thread lift treatments may be considered for patients who want to address certain facial or neck changes without surgery. This approach can be used to address changes in skin firmness or texture.

What Is a PDO Thread Lift?

A PDO thread lift is a non-surgical option that uses dissolvable threads placed under the skin in specific areas. These threads provide support in the chosen areas and gradually break down over time. The method can be tailored to address particular areas discussed during your consultation.

Concerns That May Be Addressed

PDO thread lifts may be considered for:

  • Changes in skin firmness on the face or neck
  • Areas where the skin has changed in position over time
  • Changes in skin texture in specific areas

Whether this approach is suitable for your needs will be discussed during your consultation.
