Do PDO threads cause lipolysis when used under the eyes?

February 8, 2020
Asked By:AnneDW in München, Bayern, Deutschland

I've read two controversial opinions about PDO threads under the eyes: -the first one says that they cause lipolysis -and the second says they can restore volume to the tear trough area. Which one is true? I have slight hollowing under my eyes and I'm scared that PDO threads can cause fat reduction and make the hollowing deeper.

Would it be better to have PDO threads or filler of the jaw line?
Thomas A. Mustoe, MD, FACS says:

Both are very temporary solutions. Although some report improvement after threads that last a year others only report an improvement lasting 3 months.  Jowls can sometimes be disguised by fillers by adding volume medial to the jowl.
