Course Overview
The PDO Thread Training at the Institute for Laser Medicine is a specialized course tailored for medical professionals who are licensed to perform cosmetic injections such as neurotoxins and dermal fillers. This training introduces you to PDO (Polydioxanone) Thread Lifts, a minimally invasive technique that provides subtle, natural-looking lifts by stimulating collagen and elastin production, with effects typically lasting 1-2 years. The course emphasizes hands-on experience, allowing you to practice assessment and injection techniques on live models under the guidance of skilled instructors. All products and equipment are provided during the training, and classes are intentionally kept small to offer personalized instruction. It's important to note that state regulations regarding who can perform PDO Thread Lifts vary so you should consult your state's regulation to confirm eligibility and any required supervision.
