A Revolutionary Approach

At Injectable Effects, we utilize the Matrix PDO Thread System, a cutting-edge technique that has revolutionized the field of skin rejuvenation. This advanced framework offers a safe and effective solution for tightening sagging skin, reducing fine lines, and improving overall skin texture. Let's explore the key aspects of the Matrix PDO Thread System that make it so unique and successful.

 

About PDO Threads

  • Mono Threads have become another method of tightening and thickening your skin. Mono Threads differ from thread lifts which use long barbed threads to lift tissues, however, they can still provide an improvement of fine lines and wrinkles by gradually stimulating natural collagen production.

    Mono Threads are made from a material called Polydioxanone which is an absorbable polymer that is flexible and durable. Matrix PDO Threads induce the production of collagen, creating a tightening effect for 6 to 12 months after your procedure. The threads become a support structure for your face, allowing natural collagen production to take place, over time the PDO will be fully absorbed by the body.

    Matrix Mono Threads come in a variety of textures.

  • Matrix Mono Threads are a type of single PDO filament. These threads are smooth and made without barbs which are minimally invasive. Many times, Matrix Mono Threads are inserted into the skin in a mesh-like pattern to achieve maximum tightening effects.

    After entering the skin, the threads activate collagen synthesis for a gradual skin tightening and skin rejuvenation effect. While Matrix Mono Threads tighten the skin, they do not significantly lift it.

    These skin tightening treatments can be used to rejuvenate collagen treating neck sagginess, forehead lines, and facial wrinkles. The threads can also add volume to the cheeks and an average of 10 to 30 Matrix Mono Threads is typically used for each individual treatment area.

  • After receiving a topical anaesthetic, Matrix PDO Threads will be inserted using a micro-needle or cannula. The treatment is a very customized procedure, and your healthcare professional will work closely with you in order to achieve optimal results. Also worth noting is that Matrix PDO Thread treatments don’t involve any sort of incision, meaning stitches are not required.

  • Matrix PDO Threads induce the production of collagen, creating a tightening effect for 6 to 12 months after your procedure. The threads become a support structure for your face, allowing natural collagen production to take place.

  • You will begin to see results in 6 weeks which continue to improve over the next 2 to 6 months as new collagen is produced. Although the Matrix PDO Threads will slowly dissolve, you’ll continue to see results for up to 12 months.

  • The time of your procedure will vary based on many factors—such as the size of your treatment area — but typically takes between 30 and 60 minutes.
