I was reading that mild swelling, redness, bruising and slight skin puckering are the most common side effects of Miracu PDO Threads. Some patients report going back to work the same day of treatment, but if the effects are a bit more noticeable, how long would it typically take for these symptoms to abate?
I know that PDO threads are a popular treatment for acne scars, but I haven't read anything about Miracu being used for this condition. Is this particular type of PDO thread only used for skin tightening/rejuvenation, or can it also be used for acne scars?
While researching the Miracu PDO thread lift, I read that the lifting and firming effects last about a year. That sounds like good longevity. If I get great results the first time, is it reasonable to assume it will be as effective on future refresher treatments, or is there a risk of diminishing returns over time?
Compared with other popular treatments like laser resurfacing, platelet rich plasma (PRP) and other types of thread lift, how effective is Miracu PDO when it comes to collagen rejuvenation? Would it be safe or effective to combine any of these treatments to attain maximum results?
On the treatment description for Miracu PDO Threads on RealSelf, it says the procedure is particularly suited for a younger patient who needs only a minor improvement. Would you agree this assessment? If so, do you not think this is the right option for an older patient looking for slightly more dramatic skin rejuvenation?
