How it works
PDO Threads are fine, absorbable threads made from polydioxanone, a biocompatible suture material. Placed just beneath the skin, they stimulate natural collagen production to improve skin laxity, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and restore radiance to dull or aging skin.

How soon will I see results?Results vary depending on the treatment. - Anti-wrinkle typically starts to take effect within 3-7 days but will take 2 weeks to see the final result. - Dermal fillers provide immediate results, however, swelling can take up to 2 weeks to reduce. - Filler results will continue to improve over the following 8 weeks as the product integrates into your own tissue. - Profhilo ® results are noticed 4 weeks after your second treatment. - For PDO Threads results are noticeable after 8-12 weeks.
-
How long will my results last?The duration of results depends on the type of injectable used. - Anti-wrinkle typically lasts 3-4 months. - Dermal fillers can last anywhere from months to years. Treatment longevity is dependant on the product choice, treatment area, volume used, and your metabolism. -Profhilo ® generally requires 2x initial treatments and only needs topping up after 6-9 months. - PDO Threads can last 12-24 months, depending on the area treated and the number of threads used.
-
How do I maintain my results?Retreating within the timeframe discussed at your initial treatment will prolong the effects of your treatment, and continue to improve the result over time. Additionally, practicing good skincare habits and avoiding excessive sun exposure will improve the appearance of the skin too.
-
How much are consultations?My consultations are FREE! If you are unsure about your treatment or just want to have a chat about what treatments might be most suited to you, please don't hesitate to book in!
-
Can I get more than one treatment done in one session?Yes, many clients choose to combine anti-wrinkle treatment with dermal fillers or other cosmetic procedures to address multiple concerns in a single session. We will create a treatment plan based on your unique goals and preferences, and if the procedures you're after are able to be completed in one session, then that option will be offered.
-
Are the injections painful?Discomfort levels vary from person to person, but most clients describe the sensation as a slight pinch or pressure. Many dermal fillers also contain a numbing agent to ensure your treatment is as comfortable as possible. While PDO Threads are considered minimally invasive, there can still be discomfort during treatments.
-
Can men get treatments too?Of course, we have a full range of treatment options available for me.
