V-Line
The V-line threading procedure’s goal is to create a scaffolding in order to support the tissues in the face and keep them in the “V-shape” or where necessary to delicately lift the tissues and reposition the skin to recreate the “V-shape” where it’s been lost. The V-line procedure mainly targets nasolabial folds, saggy cheeks, and uneven face line. After inserting the threads, Dr Shipes checks the balance of each side of the face to make sure you achieve optimal results.

Jaw & Neck
Underneath the surface of your facial skin are knots of muscle and fat which are responsible for the shape of your face. Because of aging, these knots begin to sag due to the loss in volume. As a result, fat in the areas near the cheek and jaw begins to droop. PDO threads are commonly used in the neck and jawline to fix sagging skin and give the skin a more youthful, tighter look. They’re inserted in problem areas and anchored on stronger points underneath the skin to achieve a solid physical lift. Plus. rejuvenation of the skin through collagen production is an added long-term effect of PDO thread lifts on the neck and jawline.

Neck Only
PDO threading is a very successful treatment to correct sagging areas in the neck. PDO threads are inserted into the problem areas to adjust tissues and pull them back and up, allowing the neck to be raised and tightened. Another purpose of this treatment is to encourage new collagen formation from the PDO Threads in order to restore a more youthful appearance and to produce long-term effects.

Upper Lip

Lip threading is also known as a lip thread lift. This nonsurgical procedure uses small dissolvable threads to smooth out fine lines around your mouth and boost collagen production. Unlike lip fillers that add volume to your lips, lip threading adds curves and definition, primarily to the cupid’s bow area of your upper lip. Lip threading appeals to people who want a natural look, rather than the pouty, plump look that lip fillers provide.
