PDO Threadlift and Skydiving: could affect my procedure?

Question

I want to book an appointment for a PDO Threadlift for my face and neck. I am also taking AFF Skydiving lessons. I wear a helmet and goggles which have to fit kind of tight. I’m wondering if freefall could affect my procedure. Is it safe?

Mark Godley, MBChB · Answer

What an exciting question!You are more than able to return to an active, vigorous lifestyle following a PDO Threadlift. However, we ask that patients wait 3-4 weeks before doing anything that involves going upside down, or anything that involves pressure or friction on the scalp and neck. This includes tight headgear, facial or scalp massage, and dental work. By all means proceed with the threads, just make sure you're grounded for 4 weeks while they heal.

I would wait until you will not be sky diving for a minimum of 2-4 weeks before getting this procedure done. I have my patients eat a softer diet for 3-5 days and avoid dental procedures for 4 weeks.
