PDO Threads redefine and add shape. Thread lifting Lexington/Nicholasville

 PDO threads are a less invasive alternative to a facelift and safer than hyaluronic acid gels.

PDO threads can help lift, rejuvenate, volumize and add support. 

They can fill areas of sagging skin, lift wrinkles in upper lip or

lift areas such as the cheeks, jaw and neck. 

Thread lifting has also been used in other areas of the body such as above the knees.

Brannon Crossing's best Med Spa for threads. Lexington / Nicholasville 

At UpGlow we only use FDA cleared threads by the most trusted brand in the US. V Soft Lift® brand offers specially coated threads to help you make the most collagen in response to the thread so you need less threads over other brands and get a better result. 

As the threads are placed your body produces collagen, elastin and its own hyaluronic acid to bring radiance and firmness to each area. 

We use two types of threads, each has a particular purpose in your specific treatment. 

Lifting: This type of thread gives some gentle lift and support. They come in different sizes and categories depending on your tissue type. They are inserted using a sterile technique under your skin deeper into the tissue and as the introducer is removed the thread attaches to the tissue and is anchored to achieve the desired result. Then just let the PDO thread do its job.

 Clients usually feel little to no pain except a small prick with the injection of a numbing agent.

 There can be a couple days to a week of down time after the procedure depending on how many lifting threads you get at one time and always give at least 4-8 weeks before attending a big event as with any aesthetic service. Bruising and swelling usually do occur and it is normal to be able to feel the thicker threads for 2-4 months. Sometimes the threads can be seen 

through the skin for a couple of weeks in those with less facial fat or thinner skin.

 You will be asked to restrict opening your mouth very wide for a while and

 to not sleep on the sides of your face for up to a week.  

After 4-6 months threads are fully absorbed leaving new collagen and elastin in its place.

Smooth: Smaller smooth PDO threads are inserted just under the dermal layer under the skin. They are popular under the chin, in the neck, where marionette lines and smile lines tend to look deeper, or in the upper face such as in the 11s area between the brows. 2-3 sessions are recommended and an annual renewal is preferred as we all naturally lose collagen at an accelerated rate as we age. Every person is different and we want you to love your threads.

Smooth threads can also be used in conjunction with other treatments for even better results. There is minimal downtime from smooth threads, mild bruising can occur. 

Smooth threads are fully absorbed in 1-4 months depending on your specific metabolism

 and healing process leaving new collagen and elastin in its place.
