Mono threads are intended to stimulate collagen activity in the skin.
They may be considered for mild changes in skin texture or firmness.
Most people can return to normal activities soon after the session.
Responses vary between individuals, and outcomes cannot be guaranteed.
Mono PDO thread is a non-surgical option that uses dissolvable threads made from polydioxanone (PDO). These threads are placed beneath the skin and are intended to stimulate collagen activity over time.
Unlike lifting threads designed to reposition tissue, Mono threads do not pull or lift the skin. Instead, they may trigger a healing response that can support gradual changes in skin texture or firmness.
Threads are inserted beneath the surface of the skin using a fine needle or cannula. The threads act as a temporary structure and may encourage fibroblast activity, which is linked to collagen production.
This option may be considered for:
Mild changes in skin laxity
Fine lines
Supporting skin firmness and elasticity
The threads dissolve within several months. Any collagen-related activity may continue for a period of time, depending on individual factors.
Some people notice gradual changes over several weeks.
Possible outcomes may include changed skin texture.
Downtime is often minimal, though this varies.
Responses differ between individuals, and no outcome can be guaranteed.
Mono threads are not intended to lift facial tissue or replace surgical procedures.
Possible side effects include:
Swelling
Bruising
Redness or tenderness
These effects usually settle within a short period. Your practitioner will discuss all potential risks, aftercare, and alternatives at your consultation.
