PDO Threads

What are Nova Threads?

Nova Threads are made from PDO (Polydioxanone), a biodegradable material commonly used in medical sutures. These threads are carefully inserted under the skin to lift and tighten sagging tissues, while also stimulating collagen production. The result is a naturally youthful and refreshed appearance without the need for surgery.

Benefits of Nova Threads

• Immediate Results: Achieve a noticeable lift and tightening effect right after the procedure.
• Minimally Invasive: Enjoy the benefits of a facelift without the need for invasive surgery.
• Natural Enhancement: The procedure enhances your natural facial contours subtly and beautifully.
• Collagen Stimulation: Promotes long-term skin health and firmness through natural collagen production.
• Safe and Effective: An FDA-approved treatment with a proven safety record.

What to Expect During the Treatment

1. Consultation: Your journey begins with a thorough consultation with Dr. Samantha Robare, who will assess your skin and discuss your aesthetic goals. She will determine if Nova Threads is the ideal solution for you and craft a personalized treatment plan.
2. Preparation: On the day of the procedure, the treatment area will be numbed with a topical anesthetic to ensure maximum comfort.
3. Insertion: Using a fine needle, Dr. Robare will expertly insert the PDO threads under your skin. The threads are then adjusted to create the desired lifting effect.
4. Completion: The entire procedure typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the extent of the treatment area.
5. Recovery: Post-procedure, you may experience some mild swelling or bruising, which usually subsides within a few days. Most patients can resume their regular activities immediately.

Aftercare Tips

• Avoid Strenuous Activities: For the first 24-48 hours, avoid heavy lifting or vigorous exercise.
• Keep Your Head Elevated: Sleep with your head elevated to reduce swelling.
• Gentle Skincare: Be gentle with your skin and avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area.
• Follow-up Appointments: Attend any scheduled follow-up appointments to ensure optimal results and address any concerns.
