What Is LIFSKIN?
Exclusive to LPG Clinics wholesale, LIFSKIN are our chosen premium brand of PDO Threads.
A LIFSKIN PDO Thread treatment uses the highest quality CE market PDO (Polydioxanone) Threads which are specially designed for accurate insertion and effective dermal retention providing optimum results. Polydioxanone (PDO) has been used in medicine for over 30 years as sutures in both Cardiovascular and Orthopaedic surgery due to its high degree of safety, predictability and reliability.
PDO Threads are surgical threads made from Polydioxanone which is a colourless, crystalline, biodegradable synthetic polymer. Polydioxanone, the material in which the Threads are made up, once inserted into the skin tissue ultimately lifts, tightens and rejuvenates the overall appearance of the skin.
Benefits of PDO Threads
The LIFKSIN PDO Thread Treatment is designed to combat facial ageing, skin stress, asymmetry and other related concerns. Once inserted, the PDO Threads will form part of an integrated support structure for the tissue of the face and body due to collagen synthesis which biologically rejuvenates the quality of the skin and slows down the ageing process. Specifically, PDO Threads:
- Improved skin laxity and reduced pore size, enhancing overall skin tone.
- Stimulation of the hypodermis, which increases the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid (HA), while accelerating skin metabolism.
- Collagen regeneration accelerates over time, improving the appearance of wrinkles and folds, enhancing elasticity and brightening the patient’s complexion of ageing skin.
- Improved blood and lymph circulation. The results show a significant improvement in the complexion and skin texture, providing a more relaxed, rested appearance.
- The activation of the circulation and lymph channels help mobilise and eliminate fatty deposits.
- The implanted threads stimulate the macrophages. The stimulation of these cells results in a reduction in inflammation and a stimulation of the immune system, which aids in natural healing.
How do PDO Threads Work?
The treatment method is based on implanting the biodegradable, absorbable and nonallergenic medical “sutures”, otherwise known as threads into the skin that stimulate collagen production.
The PDO Threads are slowly broken down and bio-absorbed naturally in the skin tissue over a four to six-month time period. PDO Threads have a powerful dual effect. The first is to provide immediate tightening of the skin. The second is to stimulate your body’s own ability to generate collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid (HA). Collagen is a protein responsible for the tension and firmness of skin. Elastin is responsible for skin firmness and elasticity. HA causes the skin to rehydrate. Stimulating HA growth, resulting in improved skin moisture and the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles.
A PDO Thread treatment is designed to tighten, rejuvenate and restore sagging and loose skin, ultimately enhancing the integrity and appearance of the skin.
