If you are looking to lift, tighten and grow younger, Rejuv can help you reach your beauty goals. You have probably looked into two very popular options: PDO Thread Lift or Facelift. While both options aim to provide a more youthful appearance there are differences between them both.
PDO (Polydioxanone) Threads are FDA cleared and made of dissolvable suture material. PDO Threads are considered a biostimulator, which simply means that the threads stimulate your own natural collagen production at the skin’s cellular level, so skin texture and firmness improve gradually after the threads dissolve. This is a minimally invasive procedure that includes numbing the patient with local anesthesia so that the entirety of the procedure is comfortable. There is minimal downtime and the threads last about 8-12 months, however, you will continue to see the effects for 12-18months. The results are a natural looking subtle lift with improved tightness to the skin.
A facelift (rhytidectomy) is a surgical procedure performed by a plastic surgeon that removes excess skin, repositions underlying tissues, and tightens facial muscles for a more youthful contour. The facelift procedure is intended for someone that has deep wrinkles, extreme skin laxity and a significant sagging of the facial skin. The procedure includes general anesthesia and can be a 6-8 week recovery time. The price point on a surgical procedure is considerably much higher and the duration of the results last 10 years depending on the procedure. The results are more drastic and leave the patient with a much more youthful appearance.
At Rejuv Cosmetic Center our goal is to provide the best possible results for each individual person. If you are looking for a non-surgical option with minimal downtime and a natural looking result a PDO Thread Lift with Dr. Marki is the perfect solution for you.
