PDO Threads for Scalp (Hair Thread Lift) Treatment in Hyderabad

Are you looking for an innovative, minimally invasive approach to stimulate hair growth and improve hair density, particularly in areas of thinning? PDO (Polydioxanone) Threads for the scalp, sometimes referred to as a “Hair Thread Lift,” is an emerging technique that uses absorbable sutures to create a supportive scaffold, induce collagen production, and stimulate growth factors in the scalp, thereby promoting hair follicle health and activity. At Dr. Nishita’s Clinic in Hyderabad, we offer this novel therapy as part of our comprehensive hair restoration solutions.

Understanding PDO Threads for Scalp

Polydioxanone (PDO) threads are biocompatible, absorbable sutures that have been used safely in medicine for many years. When inserted into the scalp tissue:

  • Mechanical Stimulation & Scaffolding: The threads create a gentle mechanical stress and a physical scaffold under the skin.
  • Collagen & Elastin Production (Neocollagenesis): The body’s natural healing response to the threads leads to increased production of collagen and elastin around them.
  • Improved Blood Circulation (Angiogenesis): New blood vessel formation is stimulated, enhancing oxygen and nutrient supply to the hair follicles.
  • Growth Factor Release: The presence of threads and the healing response can trigger the release of local growth factors that further stimulate hair follicles.
  • Gradual Absorption: PDO threads gradually dissolve over several months (typically 6-9 months), but the regenerative effects they trigger can last longer.
  • Types of Threads: Various types of PDO threads can be used, including smooth (mono) threads for general rejuvenation or barbed/cogged threads for a mild lifting effect (though lift is less of a goal on the scalp compared to the face).

What Hair Concerns Can Scalp Threads Address?

  • Androgenetic Alopecia (Male & Female Pattern Hair Loss) – particularly in early to moderate stages.
  • General hair thinning and reduced density.
  • To improve scalp health and vascularity.
  • Can be used as a standalone treatment or in combination with other hair restoration therapies like GFC, QR678®, LLLT, or topical treatments to enhance overall results.

The PDO Threads for Scalp Procedure at Dr. Nishita’s Clinic

Dr. Nishita will assess your hair loss pattern, scalp condition, and suitability for scalp thread therapy. The procedure, expected benefits, and number of threads/sessions will be discussed.
The scalp is thoroughly cleansed. Topical anaesthetic cream is usually applied, and local anaesthetic injections may also be administered to ensure a comfortable procedure.
Using fine needles or cannulas, the PDO threads are carefully inserted into the subdermal layer of the scalp in the targeted areas of thinning. Multiple threads are typically placed in a specific pattern (e.g., mesh-like).
The scalp is cleaned. You may experience mild redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising at the insertion points, which usually resolves within a few days to a week.
The procedure can take 30-60 minutes, depending on the number of threads and areas treated.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

With topical and/or local anaesthesia, discomfort during the procedure is significantly minimised. You might feel some pressure or mild pulling. Post-procedure tenderness is common but manageable.
Often, an initial session is followed by a potential touch-up or second session after 3-6 months. Some protocols may involve 2-3 sessions spaced a few months apart. Dr. Nishita will create a personalised plan.
Initial improvements in scalp health might be subtle. More noticeable results in terms of reduced hair fall and improved hair thickness/density typically become apparent from 3-6 months onwards, as collagen production and follicle stimulation take time.
The PDO threads themselves dissolve over 6-9 months, but the collagen stimulation and regenerative effects can last for 12-18 months or longer. Maintenance sessions may be recommended.
Common side effects are temporary and include mild swelling, bruising, tenderness, and a sensation of tightness. Serious complications are rare when performed by an experienced professional.
