Good Results but Painful
I am 46 y.o. Actually, I am happy with results after this procedure. It is painful, very painful. Have bruises and they are still in pain. What I understood - you should wear your facial bandage for 2-3 weeks - it is extremely important. During my first week, I even slept with this bandage on....
Day 12 After Novathread Procedure
Well i just turned 50 years old and was unhappy with the sagging skin on my lower face but I'm not ready for a facelift (yet) I thought this would be a nice pick me up. First I have to say Bella MedSpa is a great facility and the doctor has a great bedside manner and I felt completely trusting...
Puckering on One Side but Love the Other Side
I got a thread lift for the first time, using the barbed sutures. One side of my face looks much improved and lifted. The other side has “a pucker” and I can see the thread through my skin. It’s super noticeable and I’m worried because I am online all day for my job The puckering went down co...
J-Plasma with Nova Thread Lift
I had J Plasma with a Nova Thread Lift and CO2 laser around my eyes. I am 6 weeks out and am still feeling miserable. I am having a hard time smiling and the barbs on the threads hurt. The barbs below my cheeks are just below the surface of my skin and hurt when I touch them and have made...
Too Soon To Tell?
I am a 50 year old female and I've spent thousands of dollars on my face over the past 20 plus years to correct the severe acne scarring I incurred from many years of suffering from cystic acne. I heard about PDO sutures (aka Nova Threads) and decided to give it a try as I now have to also deal...
For Double Chin... No Change
I got PDO threads for my double chin. I saw no improvement (visible), although I didn’t say it “wasn’t worth it” bc maybe they will help improve the cells, tone, and build collagen etc. going forward. I got ten threads, it wasn’t painful even a little bit, some of them I didn’t feel anything, o...
Worst Decision Ever
I had NovaThreads inserted into my upper lip boarder before having lip filler. The nurse injector I saw for filler recommended the threads prior to filler due to my natural lips being so fine. She had said that the threads would help give a crisp boarder and give my lips structure so the...
PDO Thread Showing
I had gotten Nova PDO thread lift that was recommended by Kaplan to lift the marionette line that is prominent on the right side. He put in 2 barb threads on both sides of my cheeks. The thread that was put in the right side from the marionette line up towards the cheek is visible and sticking...
Never Again
It’s easy to judge myself harshly for thinking it was a good idea to pay someone to stab barbed threads through my face like some crazy Medieval torture practice. But, in truth, I believed I had done my research and proceeded under the assurances of a practitioner who “does them every day.” W...
Not Worth It
I had PDO Nova Threads last week. At first I was hopeful there was a slight change, but after 3 day when the swelling went down, I think it looks worse. There is no tightening, and it even seems it looks lumpier than before. Waste of money, can't wait til the dissolve. The photo shows that...
