PDO THREADLIFT & SILHOUETTE INSTALIFT
Have you ever noticed that skin seems to become looser and thinner as you get older? This happens because your body slowly loses its supply of collagen over the years. Collagen is an important protein in keeping your skin smooth and youthful. PDO Threads and Silhouette threads are an FDA-approved treatment for addressing skin laxity in the face, neck and body by building collagen and filling or lifting the skin. A threadlift is a new, innovative, minimally invasive procedure to correct sagging tissues. This minimally invasive non-surgical facelift can lift and contour the cheeks, neck, jawline, eyelids, and brows, giving you a rejuvenated look without having to undergo extensive cosmetic surgery or general anesthesia.

THE DUBUQUE LUNCHTIME FACELIFT
While surgical facelifts require the removal of excess skin and tissue, PDO thread lifts and Silhouette Instalift are minimally invasive and do not require any anesthesia. During treatment, we use medical-grade, absorbable threads to gently lift sagging cheeks and jowls. This is the perfect way to address mild to moderate signs of aging in a way that is safe and effective.

The most significant results of a minimally invasive facelift usually appear 2 – 3 months afterward, when new collagen has a chance to take effect. Your outcome can last for a year or more, based on your age, metabolism, skin health, and personal skincare regimen to protect your skin and enhance results. Some individuals choose to make their results more dramatic by supplementing their treatment with dermal fillers or wrinkle relaxers (neuromodulators) and laser resurfacing.

THE SOLUTION TO PAIN AND ANXIETY DURING TREATMENTS:
PRO-NOX
One of the biggest concerns our Dubuque patients have when considering some of the more advanced treatments like Moxi and dermal filler is pain management. This fear is understandable; the human brain is hardwired to experience anxiety at the prospect of pain. At Faces Medspa, we make every effort to keep our patients completely comfortable before, during, and after their procedures. Fortunately, we have a powerful tool at our disposal: an innovative sedation system called Pro-Nox that’s designed to minimize both anxiety and pain.
