Are you considering a PDO thread lift but wondering about the longevity of the results? At Mariano Busso, MD, PA at both Miami, FL, and Beverly Hills, CA, we offer the BussoLyft, a non-invasive procedure that delivers impressive results without surgery – and the results can last.


WHAT IS THE BUSSOLYFT?

The BussoLyft, also referred to as the PDO thread lift, is a non-surgical method developed to lift and tighten skin using PDO threads. This innovative technique, pioneered by board-certified dermatologist Dr. Mariano Busso, offers rejuvenation without the need for invasive surgery.

The procedure consists of PDO (polydioxanone) threads which are placed under the skin to lift superficial fat and sagging skin. The threads are made of medical-grade materials and dissolve over time, leaving you with a more youthful look. 


HOW DOES IT WORK? 

During the procedure, your skin is cleansed and numbed. PDO threads are inserted beneath the skin's surface using a specialized technique. The threads lift the superficial fat pads and skin, creating a firmer appearance and more defined contours. You can return to daily activities right after treatment, with minimal post-procedure care.


WHAT CAN A PDO THREAD LIFT TREAT? 

PDO thread lifts address facial wrinkles, sagging skin, and body contouring. Whether you want to soften lines, define your jawline, or improve skin laxity, this treatment offers a range of aesthetic solutions. The BussoLyft method targets various areas of concern in the face, including the cheeks, jawline, and neck; however, PDO threads can also be used to treat knees and bellybuttons for a non-surgical tummy tuck.


HOW LONG DO PDO THREAD LIFTS LAST? 

PDO thread lifts offer both immediate and lasting results. Right after the procedure, you’ll see an instant lift and skin support. Over time, PDO threads stimulate collagen production, leading to ongoing improvements. Results typically last 1-2 years, with the neck repeated at 6 months, however there are cases where the results can last longer. 


PDO THREAD LIFT PATIENT TESTIMONIAL 

Yurien, a valued patient of Dr. Busso, underwent a transformative BussoLyft procedure in December 2020, focusing on rejuvenating her cheeks, jowls, and neck. Fast forward three years, her remarkable results still speak volumes, standing as a testament to the enduring effectiveness of the treatment.

Notably, Yurien has not undergone any additional cosmetic procedures since her BussoLyft, nor has she experienced any significant weight loss during this period. Her sustained enhancement over time underscores the remarkable longevity of the BussoLyft, defying the natural aging process and leaving her with visible, long-term improvements from her initial condition.
