How long after PDO threads can you do a facial peel?

Question

I just got PDO threads for to improve my acne scars. How soon after am I able to do a medium strength peel?

A.J. Amadi, MD · Answer

It is recommended you wait at least 1 week post PDO threads prior to receiving a chemical peel. This allows the treatment sites to fully heal prior to another procedure. It is always best to consult with your provider prior to your appointment.

I would suggest waiting at least a month before your next cosmetic treatment. Consult with your dermatologist. -Dr. Emer

Hi, thank you for your question! I would recommend waiting two weeks after PDO threads to have a chemical peel done.

I would suggest waiting at least 2 weeks after your threads before a light/medium peel. If you have any residual puckering at that point it may be difficult to peel and waiting for 4 weeks would be beneficial.
