Can anyone give me some info on PDO vs PCL threads

March 5, 2021
Asked By:Energetic413320 in London, GB

Hi, Can anyone give me some info on PCL threads? I am going to have threads done on my jawline as I have slight jowls. The practitioner I will see, offers both PDO threads and PCL threads. I can't find much info out there on PCL threads. I'm wondering why not and what the pros and cons are of each type of thread? Many thanks.
