PDO Thread Lifts

What is a PDO Thread Lift?

Design to rejuvenate and contour the facial structure, PDO Thread Lift is a minimally invasive technique that offers you the same results as a facelift, but without the need of undergoing a surgical procedure. During the process, soluble fibres of PDO are used to lift and tighten the sagging skin tissues that make one look older. The process restores your contoured facial structure and rejuvenates facial tissues, making you look younger and more attractive.

What to Expect?

A PDO Thread Lift can be used to improve the saggy appearance of cheeks, eyebrows, and neck. The treatment is personalised based on your precise needs. During the treatment, you will be asked to lie down in a comfortable position and a local anaesthetic will be injected to ensure that you don’t experience any pain or discomfort during the process.

The PDO thread is then inserted in the required area using very fine needles. Because of the anaesthetic effect, you will not experience any pain or tingling sensations. Once the treatment is done, you can easily return to your home and get back to your everyday routine within a couple of days.

Who is a Candidate?

PDO Thread Lift is a suitable procedure for anyone who wants to avoid the pain and long recovery period associated with a facelift. You may consider undergoing a PDO Thread Lift if you want to:

  • Lift sagging skin on face and neck
  • Reduce wrinkles
  • Improve the contour of your cheeks
  • Add volume to your lips
  • Improve your jawline contour
  • Add volume and shape to achieve a youthful V-shape
  • Improve the texture and elasticity of your skin

Typically, the results obtained from a PDO Thread Lift last for good 2 to 3 years. However, the durability of results depends on your age, your lifestyle, your skin, and the filament used during the procedure.

What are Dermal Fillers?

A proven way to smooth deep wrinkles, improve the contours of your face, and fill hollows, Dermal Fillers give your skin a youthful boost and make it look tighter and healthier. From cheek enhancement to lip augmentation and non-surgical nose jobs, dermal fillers provide you a complete solution for facial lines and wrinkles in the form of Hyaluronic acid, a compound that’s responsible for smoothing wrinkles and revoluminising the face.

What to Expect?

Before injecting dermal filler, your doctor will cleanse the area to be treated and apply a topical anaesthetic. Then, small amounts of the filler will be injected using a very fine needle. This should take not more than 30 minutes. After the procedure is complete, you may experience mild swelling which will subside very quickly.

Who is a Candidate?

Dermal Fillers are a perfect solution for smoothing deep lines and wrinkles that make you look weary and old. You may consider dermal fillers if:

  • You are looking for a non-invasive treatment for augmenting the volume and shape of your face or some specific features, such as nose and lips.
  • You want to regain your youthful appearance by erasing lines and wrinkles.
  • You desire long-lasting results that are not offered by conventional wrinkle smoothing techniques.

What is Wrinkle Smoothing (Botox)?

Over time, the temporary wrinkles that form on your face due to laughing, frowning, smiling, and various other lifestyle and environmental factors may become permanent making you look old, tired, stern, or angry. IK Clinics offers you a non-invasive wrinkle smoothing technique that will erase the signs of aging and restore your refreshed, youthful look.

What to Expect from Botox?

Botox is a prescription medicine which can relax the contracted facial muscles and give you a wrinkle-free, rejuvenated look for 3 to 6 months. Wrinkle smoothing with Botox is an ambulatory procedure. Your doctor may apply an ice pack or a topical anaesthetic to numb the area before injecting Botox. A series of Botox injections are then injected using a fine needle into the desired areas. This entire process takes hardly 15 to 20 minutes and is virtually pain-free.

Who is a Candidate for Botox?

  • Frown lines
  • Forehead lines
  • Gummy smile
