I had the procedure with thread lifts for my marionette lines. Had 10 threads inserted in my cheeks. It lifted my cheeks, reduced my marionette lines, made my face shorter and firmer. The procedure was not painful. I am doing it again for sure. Look 10 years younger, and my face looks the same, just younger.
I love it when people call people by their first names. Usually when my best friend or bf call me by my name I know I’m in trouble or if it’s a stranger then I fully expect to turn around and see someone giving me that joker smile
This has been the most informative video about pdo threads I have seen so thank you. I got this done for my nasiolabial folds and am very happy with the results
I had threads a few months ago and are extremley happy with the results that just keep getting better. ( I was a good candidate) I didnt know about the collagen treatment to enhance so thank you Sooo much for this informative video. I will be doing that for sure! I did get a fair bit of brusing along the jaw line but a good makeup covered it up very well. I highly recommend this treatment. Im one for subtle changes that make me look more refreshed and anything that can help along the jawline like this a winner!
I currently have Barbed PDO threads. It's literal magic for jowls and nasal folds. However, it hurt ALOT even with lidocaine injected. Prepare for a day or two off after. It hurts to smile, brush your teeth, eat. It cost $1500. I like the results but considering the cost, pain and not lasting that long I doubt I'd do it again.
@@ShellyAF1 I've only had them for a couple weeks. My face still hurts a bit. The effects, in general, only last about a year if no additional threads are added after the initial.
Nurse Injector here. I combine pdo threads with RF Microneedling and have great results with the right patients. I also use this to compliment HA filler for areas of laxity or where filler isn’t the right procedure. I inject lidocaine prior to insertion and yes, bruising is common in the neck. Spacing it out depends on the area being treated like you mentioned
Video says best candidates are those with a thick dermis. The dermis lies beneath the epidermis. So how do you know whether you have a thick dermis or tin dermis?
13:25 If you take the right PDO threads, 26g screw for example, you will get volume! I filled up my gaunt looking cheeks by doing this on my own at home. And it worked fantastically, looks very natural, as I'm not a fan of fillers at all.
I just got Matrix threads done yesterday with a fantastic injector. After numbing cream it was so quick and almost painless (just a tiny sting, very bearable). No bruising, swelling, pain at all. I'm getting hyperdilluted Radiesse next in 4 weeks as part of my treatment plan to build up collagen and firm up jawline/prejowls and Belotero for chin projection/v-line. It looks so natural no one can tell even 1 hour after treatment that anything was ever done...takes a few weeks to see the full results but I was a pretty good candidate as I am at the mild sagging stage with thick skin/fat levels at age 40. I do at-home chemical peels & Retin A, serums religiously and have a healthy diet/lifestyle/avoid sun exposure which also helps greatly 😉😁🤞
Red Led light mask, then tretinoin is worth a try. No pain. It’s a slow process but then any result is worth waiting for. It’s not as quick and impactful but then threading isn’t guaranteed either. I’ve been on the LedLight mask since Nov ‘20. (This is 8/‘21). I think the puppet lines are less now. I’m 73. In my area, using the “Rx” free coupon knocks off about 45$ for the tretinotin. Don’t rush the process as it’s slow in acclimating the skin. Now I can use these every day but that took months. No bruising, infection, uneven sides of the face, not noticeable. I mean, really, the thread can show!
I had a severe infection from PDO threads. Culture revealed non-tuberculous mycobacterium fortuitum specie. I was on ciprofloxacin & clarithromycin for 1 year.
Agreed. No one here in the US uses this technique much. The barb threads are all the rage at the moment. This video was very informative and I really appreciate it! Please make a video about the barb threads Dr. Davin Lim. We love you!! Great job.
Can you do a video on placement of the threads for the desired results. I feel like each time I go to my doctor for the marionette lines and jowls, it’s not as effective as I feel like they should be. I don’t think she is placing them properly. Also some of the placement for underneath my chin, as the threads have dissolved over time, indicates that they were placed unevenly and over tightened. So again what would be the ideal placement of threads to tighten a chin? Thanks
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! What an informative, wonderful video! the best I have come across! Brilliant! Thank you for answering all the questions one could have and more!
Hi Doc, I did lipo on my lower face and that cause fibrosis. When i talk there would be skin depression because of the lipo. So i corrected it with fillers. And now it looks nice. And it looks nicer with threads. I did them 4-5 before. Are the safe in my case? Many thanks 🙏🏻
Are there specific patterns you’re supposed to follow when doing them safe from the nose down or can you just put them in anyway you want or should there be a specific pattern? Great great video every time I had a question you answered it with your next question lol lol thank you.
Curious why you didn’t mention red light therapy. It is a heating treatments and it’s used for all sorts of things & has benefits similar to the other things you mentioned. It is also good for bruising after procedures especially if you have thin pale skin
Hi Dr. Davin Lim! I was wondering if you could cover the new magnetic lash tech that's out there. Everyone is raving about this lashify stuff.. I'm kind of scared to use them.. hearing about "magnetic particles" near my eye is a big no for me (I would really worry if I ever needed to have an MRI especially.) Do you have any experience on this or can direct me to somewhere that really shows the safety regarding this?
You would benefit from Mono threads. They cause collagen induction which tightens the skin. Almost everyone could benefit from this kind. He's speaking about barbed lifting threads.
Jaclyn Hill had these done back in may. she said she hated them. She said it had been over a month, and her face still looked very swollen. She said she looked almost unrecognizable. Someone had mentioned she did to many at once
@@britnysnyder4991 i don't think so. She found out, through her doc, that she had a lot of inflammation in her body which was causing the swelling. So she's trying to avoid foods that will cause inflammation, and I noticed an improvement. I'm sure she had more medical stuff going on, but doesn't want to talk about it
@@camcam794 yea i saw her say a while back it was from drinking alot of alcohol. But she said she quit alcohol and its still like that so idk. Ive heard people say she got fillers and they settle into other places over time. Her face looks really different than it used to.
@@britnysnyder4991 i don't think she's ever had fillers, but I'm not 100% sure. Certain medications can make your face puffy. I've been on steroids for months due to a chronic illness, that causes inflammation, and my face is so swollen. I don't look like myself at all. So she could have something like that.
I had 16 pdo cogs placed in my brow/cheeks/under eyes/jowls looked great for a few weeks but was in agony as dhe pulled them that tight but unfortunately once rhey all settled my skin was sagging extremely disappointed especially paying all that money 😢.. But i decided to start diy treatments ive placed many pdo/pcl mono & screw threads along with Microneedling/mesotherapy/botox/skin boosters/plasma fibroblast and ive completely lifted & tightened the sagging my face has never felt so firm and lifted i swear by the mono & screw threads 😊
Hi Dr. I would like to knkw if it is true that radiofrecuency like CO2 resurfacing can cause dark spot or melasma to some kind of color skin? Please I appreciaate your answer a lot. XOXO
I just had it done by a professional for free as a training class. It didn’t look like the above needles. Instead they numbed my face in a straight line from the top of my cheek bone to the bottom of my neck with lidocaine, which burned like crazy! Then they inserted the hollow tubed needles in six places, one at a time, from my check to my neck - they had to be about seven inches long - and pulled them out leaving the thread sticking out. They did two next to each other, twisted, Rubbed upward and pushed it beneath the skin. The results… enough pain to make it uncomfortable to eat for two days, sore, bruising type of pain, and pinching for a week. It almost feels like your face is fatigued so eating, talking and smiling are an effort. As for what I look like …… drum roll….I look like nothing ever happened!!!! An Infinitesimal difference… not a person would notice! I don’t even look refreshed. Verdict: Not worth it. Save a little more and get a lower face lift. Thank god I didn’t pay for this!!
that was my question too . i think in all honesty it would be . same if using too much filler in certain area all the time ,over time that skin will stretch
@@FTYC2022 I believe so, especially ageing won’t reverse and everyone is different. It’s not just about treating the dermis alone but also the epidermis. And there’s the fat layer loss and bone loss factors too. Many factors including age contribute so can’t depend on PDO threads alone. In short PDO may work for some and not for some.
how much time does micro encapsulated tretinoin take to absorb also, can't a simple thin needle be used being careful of depth, instead of dermal rollers or stamps
Should you see results right away? I had PDO threads around my jawline/jowls and didn’t see any immediate results whatsoever, the lady who did it said it can take 1-3 months to see results as the collagen needs to build up? Worried I paid a lot of money for nothing :(
Great video on Threads, I’m going to be having them done soon, my injector is wonderful and I’ve been going to her for years and Trust her to do this procedure on my one and only face @60+, I just have to save a little money to get it done as I’m due to have my Botox in those areas you mentioned, the forehead, 11’s and around my eyes all at the same time. Cheers from Brisbane also, my injector knows you as well which is a bonus for me. I’m pretty sure she worked at your clinic at some stage. Thank you Dr Lim. 😊
@@ZoeMC369 unfortunately I wasn’t a candidate for this procedure, it’s a year old video, as I stated in my above comment, I truly trust my injector with my one and only face and she didn’t recommend it for me, I guess I’m just too Old Lol 😂, on someone younger than myself I think they’d have great results but it just wasn’t for me and I Truly Appreciate Her Honesty and just didn’t do them for the sake of the money 💰, she’s an absolute doll. Maybe ask someone else from a different channel and see how they went. I’m sorry I couldn’t help you. Have a Great Day and Weekend ahead. 😊❤️❤️🇦🇺🦘🐨
@@-nellie-m3711 thank you so much for the feedback! I love when practitioners are honest and discerning enough to not recommend certain things on our one and only face lol. I hope up have an excellent weekend as well!! 💕🙏🏼
Doc I had scaring from breast surgery years ago and they said could been keloid. But later told it wasn't keloid. How do you know which is which and is this safe. I have had fillers and Botox. I have migration with fillers in the lips. But that's not the same is it. I'd also want the collagen building
Once the thread lift is done, will the effect of the treatment be affected after for eg sleeping on the side, or maybe rubbing the skin with makeup remover?
Dr. Lim I've experienced more pain in life. No way am I going to have this done to look younger. Plus I'd want you as my doctor for surgical procedures but I'm in Illinois 🇺🇸
Thanks. I always watch your videos. You talk alot about sucission. Can tread also work as subcision for acne scars? After all it is a niddle, even though tiny!
Here in my town no one will do these they all have given them a bad name and say they won't work and can cause keloid. So I keep getting fillers and that's not what I'm looking for. I don't know if it's cause they can't do it and they know folk will still pay for fillers
PRP imo is a waste of so much money. It was incredibly painful and the only pro was the mid swelling. After a day or 2 of all swelling gone, I had no results.
Dr can you please talk about any surgeries that make the eyes longer or larger?? I can only find things like double eyelid surgery which don't seem to be for me -I'm 23 and white, I have slightly hooded eyes I guess but I feel they are small and too close together. If I could get bigger eyes, my whole face would be so much better
I had the procedure with thread lifts for my marionette lines. Had 10 threads inserted in my cheeks. It lifted my cheeks, reduced my marionette lines, made my face shorter and firmer.

How long did it last?
One minute for anesthetic cream application, few seconds for each needle. No bruises, no pain. But, be careful , plan dentist appointments before.
@@ANITA-iw8mf Hi Anita! How are they holding up?
Can this treatment be done on face for severe acne scars? Example on cheeks/ temple area ?
Refreshing to hear a Dr who explains what procedures actually do as well as giving us pros and cons.

Video says best candidates are those with a thick dermis.
The dermis lies beneath the epidermis. So how do you know whether you have a thick dermis or tin dermis?
The only video that I found explained the procedure. All others only spoke about barbed threads. Thank you so much for the clarification.
I was just going to explore PDO threads and you uploaded a video on it 🥰 Thank you Dr Lim. 💕
Amazing!!! Tks a lot for this. It would be amazing having a video of you doing the procedure. And the lift too!!!
Do you combine the radio frequency/radio frequency micro needling on the same day as the pdo lift? Before or after thread insertion?

Why do you leave them sticking out like that? Why don't you remove them right after they are inserted? Is it to remember she you placed them?

Hi I have a question that nobody can seem to answer with how and why,, can you?
Thanks for sharing. Gives some great insight as to what these threads can achieve
how much time does micro encapsulated tretinoin take to absorb
also, can't a simple thin needle be used being careful of depth, instead of dermal rollers or stamps
Lol that’s a great way to just give yourself new infections/scars
Before the invention on the derma roller they were using single needles, its called dry tattooing /mca micro needling
Are does threads scars “since they are not last longer than 2 years “ are problem for future plastic surgery? 🙏🙏

I have rosacea and have ice-picked scars which laser do you think 🤔 is safer for me and also brings out the best results
Does that work for acne scars too?
Can you please make a separate video on types of Hyper pigmentation specifically on exogeneous ochronosis......,,.
Thank you for the very informative video doc!
Will you do a video on the suspension threads? This is what my Dr suggested but I’m a little scared 😅
Thanks. I always watch your videos. You talk alot about sucission. Can tread also work as subcision for acne scars? After all it is a niddle, even though tiny!
I came to ask the same question! I hope somebody answers with a yes lol
Would it help with acne pitting on the cheeks?
Here in my town no one will do these they all have given them a bad name and say they won't work and can cause keloid. So I keep getting fillers and that's not what I'm looking for. I don't know if it's cause they can't do it and they know folk will still pay for fillers
I like this video! Very informative
I had threads done a few days ago along with prf/prp injections. What are your thoughts on combining these two procedures?
PRP imo is a waste of so much money. It was incredibly painful and the only pro was the mid swelling. After a day or 2 of all swelling gone, I had no results.
Can we use expired pdo mono threads
Would this work to raise an eyebrow that is lower than the other eyebrow?
Yes, it would.
I use a tiny amount of Xeomin as I have this same issue and it works great!
Thank you for this very informative video.
Dr can you please talk about any surgeries that make the eyes longer or larger?? I can only find things like double eyelid surgery which don't seem to be for me -I'm 23 and white, I have slightly hooded eyes I guess but I feel they are small and too close together.
If I could get bigger eyes, my whole face would be so much better
thank you for such wonderful explanation!
What are collagen stimulating fillers?
