There is a wide variety of PDO threads, each having a specific set of qualities that make them ideal for addressing specific areas and concerns. It is your doctor who will decide which type of PDO threads will be best suitable for you depending on the area being treated and the severity of your condition.
Mono threads – These are smooth in texture and are usually 12-60 mm long. They thicken and tighten the skin by stimulating collagen production.
Cog threads – These threads contain tiny barbs along their length which act as hooks that anchor the skin. Therefore, cog threads are better known for providing significant lift to the skin.
Screw threads – they are made of one or two intertwined threads and are usually 25-60mm long. These threads are known for their plumping and volume-enhancing effects, and are, therefore, most frequently used for treating sunken cheeks and deficient areas of the face and neck region.
