🧵PDO stands for polydioxanone. It's a biodegradable medical-grade material, long used in surgical sutures.
The threads are inserted beneath the skin using fine needles. Over time, the body absorbs them naturally.

Suitability depends on skin condition and overall health, and is assessed during consultation.
If appropriate, a discussion with our team may help explore individual considerations.
