What to Expect Before and After a PDO Thread Breast Lift

Before undergoing a PDO thread breast lift at our practice, thorough preparation is essential to ensure both optimal results and a smooth experience.

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with one of our experienced medical professionals. During this visit, our team will carefully review your medical history, discuss your aesthetic goals, and evaluate whether a PDO thread breast lift is right for you. Please be sure to inform us of any health conditions, allergies, or medications you are currently taking, as these can impact your suitability for the procedure and the overall outcome.

In the days leading up to your appointment at Sunset Hills Med Spa, you may be advised to avoid medications and supplements that can increase bleeding or bruising. We also recommend minimizing or temporarily stopping smoking and alcohol consumption, as these can interfere with the healing process and increase the risk of complications.

Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that is easy to remove and put back on after your treatment. While the PDO thread breast lift is minimally invasive and performed using local anesthesia at our Med Spa, you may want to arrange for someone to drive you home if you receive any sedatives or simply for your comfort and peace of mind.

At Sunset Hills Med Spa, we believe in honest communication and setting realistic expectations. Our providers will thoroughly explain the potential benefits, limitations, and risks associated with the PDO thread breast lift, as well as provide you with detailed post-procedure care instructions. Closely following these guidelines will help support a smooth recovery and the best possible results.

PDO thread breast lift procedure typically takes about 45 minutes to one hour to complete, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. The duration of your treatment may vary depending on the number of threads needed, your desired degree of lift, and your unique anatomy.

Before we begin, our experienced medical team ensures your comfort by carefully numbing the area with local anesthesia. Using advanced techniques, our skilled providers insert absorbable PDO threads beneath the skin with a fine needle or cannula. These threads are strategically placed to gently lift and support your breast tissue, enhancing your natural contours.

Throughout the procedure, our practitioners make precise adjustments to achieve the ideal shape and symmetry for your body. As a minimally invasive treatment, the PDO thread breast lift at Sunset Hills Med Spa allows you to return home the same day, with minimal downtime and a quick recovery.

Immediately after treatment, a subtle lifting effect may be noticed. This procedure provides mild to moderate elevation, ideal for those seeking natural improvement rather than the dramatic results of traditional surgical breast lifts.

Following the PDO thread breast lift, visible improvements in breast contour and firmness are often observed. The advanced threads provide internal support and gently reposition breast tissue. However, the most significant changes develop gradually over several weeks as the threads stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, contributing to long-lasting results.

It’s normal to experience temporary swelling, bruising, or minor discomfort in the treated area, typically resolving within a few days to a week. Some clients may feel tightness or firmness, and mild puckering or skin irregularity, which usually smooths out during healing.

Sunset Hills Med Spa emphasizes realistic expectations and personalized care. PDO thread breast lifts are best suited for individuals desiring modest improvements in breast position and skin tightness, not a significant lift or volume increase. Over the subsequent months, as new collagen forms around the threads, continued improvements in breast shape and firmness are common.

To maintain the results of a PDO thread breast lift, a thorough aftercare routine and healthy lifestyle choices are essential. Immediately following the procedure, detailed post-procedure instructions should be followed. These typically include wearing a supportive bra and avoiding strenuous activities or heavy lifting for a specific period. Adhering to these guidelines helps protect the treated area and ensures threads anchor securely for optimal lifting.

Long-term results benefit from focusing on skin health and elasticity. Maintaining a stable weight is important, as significant changes can affect the lift. Supporting skin from within through hydration and a nutrient-rich diet, including antioxidants, vitamins C and E, and healthy fats, promotes collagen production and skin strength. Avoiding smoking and limiting alcohol consumption can prevent accelerated skin aging and aid healing.

Sun protection is crucial; apply broad-spectrum sunscreen to the chest and consider protective clothing when outdoors. Gentle skincare products with ingredients like hyaluronic acid, retinoids, or peptides can further boost collagen synthesis and maintain firmness. Regular follow-up appointments are encouraged to monitor progress and address concerns. Additional maintenance options, such as supplementary threads, radiofrequency treatments, or other non-surgical skin tightening solutions, can be discussed if changes in results are observed.

By combining proper aftercare, healthy lifestyle habits, and the ongoing support of the Sunset Hills Med Spa team, you can enjoy long-lasting, confidence-boosting results from your PDO thread breast lift.
