Can Morpheus8 be used to dissolve PDO barbed threads?

User Avatar

I had PDO barbed threads to lift the corner of my lips and lower face 2 weeks ago. No complications, but I didn't like the results. 4 threads total. Provider released (not removed) the threads 1 ago ago. Face back to normal. Can I have Morpheus8 with the threads inside? My goal is to get the normal benefits of Morpheus8 and as a bonus dissolve the threads.

Facial sculpting and contouring can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Countour, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra, which would give improvement in facial balance. Fat or implants are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thanks for your inquiry, I generally do not want patients to have Morpheus 8 to a surgically treated area with undermining like a facelift or tummy tuck should wait at least three months, skin well healed, and swelling minimal, good luck.

Thank you for your question. Unfortunately we would not recommend treating face and neck with this treatment with the metal implants you have. Due to the Radio Frequency it is a contraindication.
