PDO threads kill fat cells?

Question

I am interested to get (PDO) threads underneath my eyes and nasolabial folds maybe. But I heard threads can kill fat cells. Can you tell me what exactly happens with the fat cells and threads and why? Thanks a lot.

PDO threads do not kill any cells. They stimulate collagen production in the areas where they are inserted. Make sure you contact a board-certified physician or other experienced practitioners for safe and effective results.

The texture of the skin of the eyelids do not lend themselves to the thread lifts. Bunching and irregularities are a common problem with them. You are far better of with a small surgical procedure and it is longer lasting and cheaper in the long run..
