    How Facial Threads Stimulate Collagen Production

    Nov 29, 2021

    Facial threads, or mewa as they are called in India, have been used by women there to stimulate collagen production and fight signs of aging for centuries. These days, the facial threading technique has gained popularity among Westerners as well. But how exactly does it work? And what kind of results can you expect? This article will give you the full scoop on everything you need to know about this popular treatment method!

    What are facial threads?

    Mono PDO (polydioxanone) threads, a fine suture-like material that is inserted into the fat layer just below the skin. Their diameter is much small than that of human hair.

    Not only can it improve the appearance of sagging skin, but threads also promote the stimulation of collagen and building new blood vessels. As a result, this helps to improve skin elasticity, texture, fine lines, and volume for a timeless rejuvenation. In addition, because each thread is placed individually by your doctor or specialist – meaning there is no downtime from treatment – you can go back to work immediately after treatment.

    What Is the Procedure Like?

    Threads are absorbable polydioxanone (PDO) barbed sutures indicated for use in soft tissue approximation. With a decade worth of safety track record in surgery, PDO is a safe raw material that has been used for orthopedic and cardiovascular surgery for wound closure. As a safe raw material that is completely absorbed by the body through hydrolysis, PDO causes minimal tissue reaction and tissue trauma.
