Is it really necessary to stay away from intense exercise for 1 month after PDO thread lift?

Thank you for your question. I can understand how you want to get back into your exercise routine. However, I would recommend following the advise of your physician/injector. The barbs that grab the underside of the skin to create the lift can be dislodged with intense physical activity or facial animation. This would negate the benefit from placing the threads in the first place. By 4 weeks the threads have become much more anchored by new collagen formation.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.

Thank you for your question. Typically, I recommend patients to stay away from strenuous activity for at least 3 weeks. Please make sure you consult your provider. For more information, I recommend getting a in person consultation from a board-certified dermatologist. 

It is necessary to avoid strenuous activity for one month following a thread lift to ensure optimal and long-lasting results. Intense activity may move the barbs of the threads, and negatively impact your results. Best of luck.
