Resorbable Collagen Stimulating Threads are a popular, excellent alternative to surgery or other invasive methods for improving skin firmness and expression lines on the face. More and more clients are asking for this type of treatment to improve their skin, and there are several advantages that make it a must-have in your beauty salon. In this article we give you all the information.

What Are Resorbable Collagen Stimulating Threads?

Resorbable collagen stimulating threads, also known as PDO threads, are a non-surgical aesthetic treatment designed to tighten and lift the skin, restoring lost firmness and youthfulness.

This treatment involves placing thin threads made of biocompatible materials (polydioxanone, PDO) into the skin, which naturally dissolve in the body over time. These threads stimulate the body's natural collagen production, achieving a gradual, natural lifting effect. The skin looks firmer, redensified and more youthful.

Since the threads are resorbable, they gradually dissolve over time, leaving behind natural collagen fibers for long-lasting results.

How Are Resorbable Collagen Stimulating Threads Applied?

The application procedure for resorbable collagen stimulating threads is relatively simple and can be carried out in your beauty salon's treatment room like any other facial treatment. Naturally, a prior skin assessment is essential to check its condition and determine which areas need treatment.

We can divide the treatment into two parts:

1. The first part is Cleansing and Preparing the Skin. We start with a double cleanse, using a product that removes oil-soluble impurities (such as a cleansing milk or oil), which removes makeup and sunscreen, followed by a second cleansing product that removes water-soluble impurities such as dirt particles, dust, etc. The next step is exfoliation to "polish" the skin. Exfoliating removes all dead skin cells and thoroughly clears the pores of any impurities. This way, the skin is ready for treatment and will absorb the products better.

At this stage, before placing the threads, a complementary skin treatment can also be carried out — for example, applying active ingredients with a Dermapen, or a device-based treatment such as radiofrequency. These treatments complement the service and help improve the skin's condition, which leads to better results.

2. The second part is Applying the Resorbable Collagen Stimulating Threads. It's advisable to check the usage protocol for each brand, since specifications can vary by product. At Seena Owell we recommend these for their effectiveness and quality — they're a bestseller!: Hydrolyzed collagen threads.

To apply the threads, an active ingredient is used that acts as an "activator", usually 1% Hyaluronic Acid.

Open the ampoule of hyaluronic acid, pour the contents into a container to work comfortably, and apply it generously to the area to be treated with a fan brush. Next, place the thread on the skin, following the shape of the expression line, and "paint" the thread with more hyaluronic acid to wet it and let it start working. There's no need to press or try to make the thread penetrate — the skin will absorb it gradually. Repeat this process on all the areas you're going to work on the face and neck.

Next, to close out the process and help the threads absorb, you should apply a hyaluronic acid mask to the whole face. You can find this type of mask in different formats: ready-made and ready to apply, or as alginate, to be prepared right before application.

We recommend these two options available in our online store:

The results of applying Resorbable Collagen Stimulating Threads are immediate and improve progressively as they're absorbed.

What Skin Types Are Resorbable Collagen Stimulating Threads Suitable For?

This treatment is indicated when the first signs of facial sagging start to appear. However, its effectiveness decreases in cases of more advanced sagging, especially in older clients with a limited capacity to regenerate collagen.

They're mainly applied to areas of the body such as the cheeks, neck, forehead and jawline, although they could also be used on the arms, abdomen, buttocks, chest and thighs.
