Ultra V

Ultra V Hyal Filler (Hard)

Advanced, thick-gauge Polydioxanone (PDO) cog threads engineered for powerful structural lifting, deep tissue repositioning, and dramatic facial contouring with long-lasting collagen stimulation.

Category PDO Threads (Cog/Lifting)

Key Ingredient Polydioxanone (PDO) with Barbs

Duration 8-12 Months (Results up to 2 years)

Advanced Barbed Neocollagenesis

Ultra V Hard threads utilize thick-gauge, bi-directional cogs/barbs to securely anchor into the sub-dermal adipose tissue, providing an immediate mechanical lift while triggering a robust inflammatory response for maximum collagen production.

Core Technical Features

01 100% Biodegradable thick-gauge Polydioxanone (PDO)
02 Bi-directional barbs for superior tissue anchoring
03 Maximum mechanical stimulation of fibroblasts
04 High tensile strength for heavy tissue repositioning

Clinical Protocols

Ultra V Hard threads are designed for deep SMAS or strong sub-dermal placement. Precise vector planning and tissue engagement are essential to achieve a dramatic, yet natural-looking lift.

Preparation & Mapping

Thoroughly cleanse and disinfect the entire treatment area (e.g., lower face, jowls, neck).

Inject local anesthetic (lidocaine with epinephrine) precisely at the planned entry points and along the planned thread vectors to ensure patient comfort and minimize bleeding.

Carefully mark the lifting vectors, identifying the optimal anchor points (often near the hairline or temporal fascia) to provide the strongest mechanical pull.

Insertion Methodology

Create a small entry point using a pilot needle. Insert the blunt-tipped cannula containing the Hard thread into the deep sub-dermal/SMAS layer.

Advance the cannula along the pre-marked vector until the desired lifting point is reached, ensuring you remain in the correct anatomical plane.

Withdraw the cannula while applying gentle upward pressure on the skin to engage the bi-directional cogs/barbs securely into the tissue.

Trim any excess thread at the entry point so it retracts smoothly under the skin. Apply sterile strips and ice to minimize swelling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Due to their thick gauge and strong barbs, these threads are ideal for repositioning heavy, sagging tissue. They are most commonly used for significant mid-face lifting, jowl correction, and tightening severe neck laxity.

The thick PDO threads take longer to dissolve, typically between 8 to 12 months. Because they trigger a massive neocollagenesis response, the structural lift and firming effects can persist for 1.5 to 2 years.

Yes, patients should expect mild to moderate swelling and possible bruising for 3 to 7 days. Mild skin "puckering" or dimpling may occur immediately post-procedure but will typically smooth out naturally within 1 to 2 weeks as the threads settle.

Yes, PDO is a completely biocompatible and safely absorbable material. However, because Hard/Cog threads are placed deeper in the tissue, they should only be administered by trained medical professionals with a strong understanding of facial anatomy.
