PDO threads are routinely inserted using a 26-30g mounted needle into the subcutaneous layer of your skin to augment the soft tissue there. There might be minimal discomfort when this happens, but it typically subsides quickly.

Barbed threads and PDO threads can be used in a non-surgical lift of the face, brow, body, or neck. These barbed threads are inserted via a blunt-tipped cannula – an instrument that minimizes trauma and lessens the risk of nerve damage.

These thread options are not permanent, and they all self-dissolve over time.
