PDO thread is not harmful to the body. It is made of proteins that can regenerate collagen and new blood vessels so that the skin looks more revitalized.
If an experienced surgeon performs the procedure with authentic thread sutures, then there is no need to worry about side effects.
Is the strength of the tensile force weaker for absorbable threads?
Essentially, non-absorbable threads pull the tissues and allows for cell regeneration to a degree. However, absorbable threads work not only by effectively pulling the tissues, but by allowing skin regeneration and cell proliferations.
Thus, the results are similar but the principles are slightly different.
