FAQs
Fillers
How Fillers Work
We use hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers. Hyaluronic acid fillers are injected into facial tissue to help replace the volume that is lost due to aging, disease, or damage caused by the sun or from smoking.
Hyaluronic acid plays an important role inside the human body; its primary function is to maintain skin hydration and volume. Studies have shown that the effects from a single treatment with filler can last up to 12 months. Some results have lasted as long as 2 years.

Dependent upon the condition being presented there are numerous options such as topical solutions, devices, and needle depth. Typical results per treatment is between 40-50% correction of the original indication.
PDO Threads
What are PDO Threads?
PDO Thread Lift is the latest treatment option for skin tightening and lifting as well as V-shaping the face. These threads are made of PDO (polydioxanone) material which is similar to the threads used in surgical stitches. PDO would continuously stimulate collagen synthesis under skin. When inserted into the skin, it acts as a "scaffold" for the skin which helps to "hold" the skin against the effects of gravity. These "mesh" of threads can also shape the face by lifting and supporting sagging structures. The threads are absorbable and therefore will be reabsorbed in 4-6 months time leaving nothing behind but the skin structure created which continues to hold for another 15-24 months.
PDO (polydioxanone) is the material used in surgical stitches. Physicians started to use PDO threads, not for surgical stitches, but insert in the skin so that PDO would continuously stimulate collagen synthesis. When PDO threads are introduced into the skin, it acts as a "scaffold" for the skin which helps to "hold" the skin against the effects of gravity.
