The combination of PDO threads and PRP-therapy for the correction of the neck and decollete area

Aging of the body – it is a physiological process, the signs of which are manifested in almost all of its organs and structures. Thanks to the possibilities of modern aesthetic medicine, the external changes that accompany the aging process can be corrected quite easily and effectively. Age-related changes in such a delicate area as the neck and décolleté are also very well amenable to correction. Specially for the readers of estet-portal.com, a dermatovenereologist of the highest category, a member of the European Association of Dermatologists, an honorary member of the Association of Injectors Irina Sergeevna Kapshuchenko spoke about the features of combining PDO threads and PRP-therapy for the correction of the neck and décolleté area.

Irina Sergeevna, tell me, for the aesthetic correction of which patients do you choose PDO threads?

Most often, I choose PDO threads for patients who have excess body fat. They can be both on the face, and on the body, and on the neck.

I prefer to use PDO threads specifically in patients with a deformed aging morphotype of the neck, that is, with excess fat in this area.

These are usually women with a rather short neck, who have hypertrophy of subcutaneous fat, and with the help of PDO threads we solve the issue of compression of this fat, reduce it a little.

What is the impact of PRP-therapy and PDO threads in the correction of the neck and decollete area?

Thanks to the use of PRP-therapy, we promote tissue regeneration, restore elasticity, reduce the number of wrinkles and, due to the unique properties of plasma, we restore all the mechanisms of aging at the pathogenetic level, that is, poor blood circulation, reduced collagen production, reduced work efficiency fibroblast itself, as well as stimulate stem cells. All this is affected by PRP-therapy - autologous plasma. And PDO threads help us retain subcutaneous fat, compact it, and form the so-called skeleton that will keep the skin of the neck and its subcutaneous fat in good shape. These techniques are very important in combination with the deformation morphotype of aging of the neck, face and body, because this way we see a more pronounced result.

What complications can occur when combining PRP therapy and PDO threads for the correction of the neck and décolleté area?

Neck and décolleté area – this is a very delicate area. We can damage rather large vessels and get pronounced bruises, and we prevent and treat such complications with certain methods. In terms of the inflammatory response, we sometimes see complications such as thread migration, or we can find the tip of the thread on the skin, as patients say, "threads come out."

Complications after correction of the neck and décolleté area may occur because this is a rather mobile area.

Thanks to the use of PRP-therapy, in combination with PDO threads, we push the thread deeper, and there is practically no migration, the inflammatory reaction is much less pronounced, and the rehabilitation period is shortened.
