Can Morpheus8 be used to dissolve PDO barbed threads?

April 13, 2023
Asked By:FrenchGarcon in New York, New York

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.

Is Morpheus8 right for me? Want my jaw/chin to be sleeker, thinner and more contoured. (photos)
Jason Emer, MD says:

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

Vishnu Rumalla, MD says:

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.

Can I have Morpheus8 done if I have titanium plates / screws in the jaw and nose area?
Danielle Shanley, MD says:

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.
