De behandelprocedure
The treatment procedure consists of: a free intake of 10 minutes, the administration, anesthetic, the treatment itself, instructions from the doctor for the best possible result and a check-up appointment if needed.
Personal Advice
During a no-obligation intake of 10 minutes prior to the treatment, the doctor will give you personal advice. He listens carefully to your wishes and tells you what possibilities there are. He will also discuss the treatment and the expected results with you. It is also possible to schedule a non-binding intake separately from the treatment.
Before the Treatment
We recommend that you do not drink or smoke alcohol for 48 hours before treatment. Furthermore, it is important not to take blood-thinning medication. For the free intake and administrative handling, we ask you to be present 15 minutes in advance.
The Treatment
After the administration and intake, the doctor starts the treatment. He disinfects the skin and marks the puncture points. If you wish, the doctor will start with an anesthetic. With the help of an anesthetic syringe, he can anesthetize the entire trajectory of the threat or the place where the cannula is inserted. Then he carefully places the PDO threat under your skin using a thin injection needle or inserts the wire with a cannula through a previously pricked opening. After placement, he removes the needle/cannula and the thread remains under the skin and in the desired location. The thread is placed in the subcutaneous connective tissue and is invisible.
After the Treatment
There is a slightly visible result immediately after the treatment. But you will see the maximum result only after 3-5 months. The first days after the treatment you may experience a slight swelling, some redness and bruising. This quickly pulls away. For the best possible result, it is important to follow the doctor's instructions carefully.

The treatment is very safe; after all, the doctor does not have to cut into the skin, and the threads are soluble. There are no visible scars and healing is very fast. Immediately after the treatment, the first result is slightly visible, after 3-5 months this is optimal. You no longer have to be annoyed by crow's feet, marionette lines, turkey neck, and so on.
Why would I choose a PDO threat lift treatment?
