There are so many new options out there, that getting a face-lift is no longer the only solution to look younger. Many people are using dermal fillers such as Juvederm, Voluma, Volbella, Restylane, Radiesse to achieve a youthful appearance. Dermal fillers a great and I love them, but many times over use of fillers in the face can lead to a “moon face” that is big and round with no defined shape.
The PDO thread lift is also known as the “Mini Face-Lift”. This procedure takes about 1 hour and will rid your face of those jowls and tighten you up. A cannula with a suture is placed under the skin into the soft tissue. The suture has fine barbs on it that anchor it into the tissue. The cannula is removed and the suture stays in place. The suture will very slowly dissolve over a period of 1-2 years depending on the size of the “thread” suture. There is no “bunched up” skin by the ear and it is very soft and natural looking. This is a very highly skilled procedure and should only be performed by trained and certified professionals. We perform the most PDO thread lifts in all of Arizona and are highest rated!
