PDO threads and Attiva

Name a better duo… Dr. Pisarenko and Dr. Nemeth take on this patient’s skin laxity with the ultimate combination: PDO threads and Attiva!

PDO Threadlifting

PDO Threadlifting is a cosmetic procedure that uses fine suture material, a.k.a “threads” or “thread lift”, to lift and tighten sagging skin. PDO Max threads are made from a dissolvable material (polydioxanone) that your body naturally absorbs over time, producing collagen in the process. There are essentially two types of threads—barbed and smooth. The barbed threads provide lifting and support to loose skin while smooth threads solely encourage collagen production. There are different types of smooth threads, and these can be used to fill folds or hollows in your facial contour in lieu of or in addition to traditional injectable fillers. Barbed and smooth threads also can be used alone or together in a unique and personalized combination for lifting, supporting and volumization. The results last between one to two years. Your surgeon will recommend the best combination to produce immediate, natural, and noticeable results!

Attiva

Attiva S.I.H. (Subdermal Induced Heat Technology) is a new, FDA-approved device to tighten the deepest layers of skin and soft tissue by reorganizing existing collagen and stimulating new collagen production. Via a small cannula introduced under the skin, precise radiofrequency energy is applied to the various layers of tissue, including the sub-dermis, to create controlled heat stimulation of the collagen and elastin layers. The results are both immediate and gradual as existing collagen fibers are tightened and new collagen is formed.
