What's the difference between Nova Threads and other threads? I'm thinking could be good if it lasts a year + for those who only need a minor skin lift. Seems it can be done on parts of the body as well as face.

Answer: NovaThreads Thank you for your question. Novathreads are dissolvable polydioxanone (PDO) threads that are placed under the skin to produce a temporary lifting result in the desired area. The procedure is done in office under local anesthesia and has no down time. In my experience, I have seen results last anywhere between 6-12 months, however results vary. Novathreads differ from other thread lifting alternatives because they are made from an absorbable PDO suture. You are correct that threads can be used for other parts of the body as well. For example, I have used threads to lift sagging skin above the knee. I recommend consulting with a board certified physician who is trained using Novathreads in order to further discuss your candidacy.

Answer: Nova Threads Thank you for your question. Nova Threads are dissolvable polydioxanone (PDO) threads made from the same dissolving material as surgical sutures. Nova Threads are placed beneath the skin to provide a support structure for new collagen growth while reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles. We use Nova Threads to treat lower face skin laxity and facial wrinkles such as marionette lines, nasolabial folds and laugh lines. For more information please make sure you a get a in person consultation from a board-certified dermatologist.
