Vectors for the application of PDO threads. (A) Cephalocaudal entry point, taking the external canthus of the eye as a reference point toward the capillary implantation (one bidirectional thread of 15 cm and one multidirectional thread, represented in the image as blue and green, respectively). (B) Caudal cephalic vectors, zygomatic prominence entry point, 2 cm from the external canthus of the eye (2 bidirectional threads of 15 cm).

• First entry point was the area of skin between the lateral canthus and the lateral tip of the eyebrow and second entry point was frontoparietal area of the scalp right next to the hairline. Second entry point was in the laterosuperior of first entry point at an angle of 60°. An 18 gauge punching needle was inserted sequentially into first and second entry points to guide the thread procedure. After the puncture with the needle, punctate bleeding areas were used as entry holes for the cannula. Then, a 19 gauge cannula containing PDO thread was inserted vertically into first entry point until it
touched the periosteum. After feeling the periosteum, the cannula was withdrawn to enter the loose areolar tissue plane. To make sure that the cannula was in the correct plane, the patient was questioned about the presence of the pain. In the event of any
pain, the practitioner kept trying to find the right plane by adjusting the depth of the cannula. Just at the right point that the patient felt no pain, a PDO thread was introduced at the loose areolar tissue plane at an angle of 60° up to the frontoparietal scalp and the cannula was withdrawn.
• A second PDO thread was placed from the first entry point. The second PDO thread was
introduced again at the plane of loose areolar tissue at an angle of 45° up to the frontoparietal scalp and the cannula was withdrawn. The free ends of the two threads were hanging down
from the first entry point. Once the two threads were placed under the skin, tension was applied and they were pulled upward from the first
entry point until overlying skin and lateral
eyebrow were suspended. The traction intensity
was adjusted to overcorrect as it would loosen
over time.
• After the suspension procedure, the free ends of the two threads were tied four times. Then, the skin was pulled down a little by massaging with a finger and the knot was buried inside. At this
stage, a skin dimpling occurred in the skin overlying the knot due to the pulling strength of the threads. A third PDO thread was placed from the second entry point. The third PDO thread was introduced at the loose areolar tissue plane at an angle of 60° up to the
parietal scalp and the cannula was withdrawn. After placement of a third thread beyond the scalp, the skin dimpling that occurred
above the eyebrow disappeared because it was moved into the scalp and hidden in hairs by the pulling strength of the third thread. An empty cannula (the one that was withdrawn after
introduction of the three threads or a new 19 g cannula if they were not sterile anymore) was taken and one of the free ends of (it could be any of them) the first or second thread was placed in it.
• The cannula with a thread end in it was introduced from the first entry point, pushed up with slow and gentle movements to avoid damaging the superficial veins at the level of the superficial fat pad, pulled out from the second entry point and the cannula was
withdrawn. The free end of the thread brought by the cannula from below and the free end of the third thread were tied four times at the second entry point. The skin was pulled down by a fingertip over the knot to bury it inside. An empty cannula was taken again and the free end of the third thread was placed in it. The cannula with the third thread end in it was introduced from the second entry point, pushed down at the level of the superficial fat pad, pulled out from the first entry point, and the cannula was
withdrawn. If it was difficult to find the below entry point (first entry point) with the cannula, a guide needle was inserted through the below entry, the cannula was touched and guided. The free end of the thread left below and the free end of the third thread coming from above were tied two times (Figure 1). Excess ends of upper and lower threads were trimmed and knots were buried. This technique was repeated for the other eyebrow for each thread.
After the procedure, patients were prescribed amoxicillin clavulanic acid 2 × 1 g for a week.
