PDO MONO THREAD

PDO mono threads are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment used to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture, firmness, and elasticity. They are part of the broader category of thread therapies, but unlike lifting threads, mono threads are designed for skin rejuvenation rather than lifting.  

What Are PDO Mono Threads?

PDO (Polydioxanone) is a biocompatible, absorbable material that has been safely used in medical sutures for decades.  

Mono threads are smooth, hair-thin threads (without barbs or hooks) that are inserted into the skin using fine needles.  

They are primarily used to tighten and rejuvenate the skin by stimulating natural collagen and elastin production.  

How Do They Work?

1. Insertion  

The practitioner inserts multiple PDO mono threads into the skin in a mesh-like pattern. This creates a supportive “scaffold” under the skin.  

2. Collagen Stimulation  

As the body naturally breaks down the PDO threads over several months, it triggers a wound-healing response. This stimulates fibroblasts to produce collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, which are essential for skin firmness and hydration.  

3. Gradual Rejuvenation  

The threads dissolve within about 6–8 months.  

The collagen framework they leave behind can last 12–18 months, providing longer-term skin improvement.
