The delicate skin under the eyes is one of the first areas to show signs of aging. Fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin can make you look tired and aged beyond your years. While there are numerous treatments available to address under eye concerns, one of the most effective and minimally invasive options is smooth PDO threads.

PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are a type of synthetic absorbable suture that have been used for medical purposes for many years. They are now also being used in cosmetic procedures, including under eye treatments. Smooth PDO threads are very fine, flexible threads that are inserted under the skin using a small needle. Once inserted, the threads provide a scaffolding effect that supports the skin and stimulates collagen production. This results in tighter, firmer skin and a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.

One of the benefits of smooth PDO threads for under eye treatment is that they are minimally invasive. The treatment requires only a local anesthetic and there is no downtime, so patients can return to their normal activities right after the procedure. The treatment is also relatively quick, usually taking only around 30 minutes to complete.

Another benefit of smooth PDO threads is that they provide long-lasting results. While the threads themselves are absorbed by the body over time, the collagen production they stimulate can last for several months, if not longer. This makes them a great option for individuals who are looking for a non-surgical, long-lasting solution to under eye concerns.

In addition, smooth PDO threads are a very versatile treatment option. They can be used to address a variety of under eye concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. They can also be combined with other treatments, such as dermal fillers or Botox, to achieve even more dramatic results.

Overall smooth PDO threads are a safe, effective, and minimally invasive option for under eye treatment. They offer long-lasting results and can be customized to meet the unique needs of each patient. If you are struggling with under eye concerns, consider smooth PDO threads as a viable treatment option.
