PDO threads are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment for skin lifting and tightening, utilising biocompatible polydioxanone.

Barbed threads lift, while smooth threads stimulate collagen. Treatments address concerns like sagging skin and fine lines, with visible results immediately and continued improvement.
Downtime: Downtime after PDO thread treatment is typically minimal. Some patients may experience temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the insertion points. These side effects usually subside within a few days to a week, and individuals can generally resume regular activities shortly after the procedure.

Pain Levels: Moderate, local anaesthetic used.
PRP
PRP involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, concentrating platelets, and injecting the enriched plasma back into the body. This procedure, used in both aesthetics and medicine, stimulates tissue repair, collagen production, and cell regeneration. Common in facial rejuvenation, it addresses fine lines and wrinkles. In medical fields like orthopaedics, PRP aids tissue healing and reduces inflammation. The minimally invasive procedure carries a lower risk of adverse reactions and its natural, gradual results become more noticeable over time.
Downtime: PRP treatments typically have minimal downtime. Patients may experience some redness or swelling at the injection sites, but this usually resolves within a day or two. Most individuals can resume regular activities immediately after the procedure.

Secret RF
The term “Secret RF” refers to a specific type of skin treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy.
Secret RF addresses:
- Fine lines/Wrinkles
- Scars
- Sun damage
- Stretch marks
- Large pores
- General signs of aging
- Skin quality, texture, and appearance
Here’s how Secret RF works:
- Microneedling: The treatment uses very fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates the skin’s natural healing process and promotes the production of new collagen and elastin.
- Radiofrequency Energy: At the same time, radiofrequency energy is delivered to the deeper layers of the skin through the needles. This energy heats the tissue, triggering additional collagen remodelling and tightening.
By combining these two technologies, Secret RF offers deeper penetration of treatment compared to traditional microneedling alone, and it targets a wide range of skin concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, large pores, and overall skin laxity.
Polynucleotides
Polynucleotides are molecules made from fragments of fish which mirror human DNA and are injected into the skin. Through injecting polynucleotides we stimulate our fibroblast cells to produce collagen and elastin allowing for tissue regeneration. In addition to this, it supports antioxidant and hydration properties, making the skin feel and look healthier!
The product is most commonly injected under the eyes, face and neck. It can also be a great alternative to those not suitable for tear trough filler.

Red light is often used to promote collagen production, reduce inflammation, and improve skin texture.
Blue light targets acne-causing bacteria, making it beneficial for managing acne and blemishes.
Near-infrared light penetrates deeper into the skin, promoting healing and enhancing overall skin health.
