PracticalCME was the first to offer both live and online CME-approved training in PDO threads and our blended online + live course offers 15 CME credits. It is very important to learn the characteristics of PDO thread material and the studies behind it prior to using it in your practice. This cannot be covered in courses where all you do is watch cases, or do a case with a proctor. Courses without CME credit are prone to bias from a sponsor or fail to have the academic rigor needed to earn CME accreditation.

We have relied on FAST TRACK training for the last 10 years to offer high-quality online courses to our students and prepare them for any hands-on training.

Each live course participant will have access to a full 9-hour streaming, interactive presentation with live narrated videos and extensive content on PDO threads.

Students will learn about the proper PDO thread lift procedure right from the beginning, as our didactic curriculum has no bias whatsoever. Additionally, participants can learn at their own pace and review the course’s content at any time.

However, this advanced training doesn’t conclude after reviewing the online content. Students must pass a post-test to earn a printable CME certificate.

After that, participants can also attend optional live hands-on classes to test their knowledge about barbed and smooth PDO threads.

These hands-on sessions are sponsored by thread manufacturers. They allow participants to plan and perform their first case.

There are many reasons why medical professionals choose PracticalCME for their PDO threads training. Here are the main ones:

• Our PDO training courses are taught by seasoned MD instructors with at least 10 years of experience.
• We are fully committed to offering comprehensive training. Besides delivering high-quality, evidence-based content, we never cancel a class.
• Our PDO thread training course has been designed to help participants learn at their own pace. You can spend as much time as you need reviewing the online material.
• We offer customizable consents and downloadable patient instructions forms to help participants integrate thread face-lifting into their practice.
• After purchasing our PDO threads training course, you will receive free content updates for at least two years.
• We don’t offer grainy videos featuring someone lecturing. Instead, our online content is interactive and has live links to help you expand your knowledge on PDO threads.

While we focus on providing first-class training to our students, we also care about their future patients. Therefore, our PDO thread lift certification covers key topics, such as major risks related to the procedure, safety practices, and more.

Furthermore, our training courses are available in many cities across the US.

Yes, you can take our PDO thread lifting course if you are a nurse practitioner.

PracticalCME’s PDO thread training course is open to doctors – both MDs and DOs, registered nurses (RNs), nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other licensed medical professionals (they’re only eligible for hands-on training).

Non-US licensed providers cannot participate in our hands-on sessions but may be eligible for our online courses.

If you are interested in our PDO thread lift training but aren’t a US-licensed provider, don’t hesitate to contact us through our website’s chat box or email.

All healthcare professionals who take our PDO training courses will have the opportunity to participate in hands-on sessions and practice the techniques they learned through the online content by using real products.

If you take our PDO thread lift course, you have two options to choose from during your hands-on training. These are:

• MINT Threads – They are booked separately at mint.pdo.com.
• NovaThreads – They are acquired through the AIAM partnership.

However, both NovaThreads® and MINT PDO® are registered trademarks and belong to their respective owners.

Our PDO training courses are independent and aren’t affiliated with any of these thread lift suture providers.

Since we want to offer comprehensive training and evidence-based, high-quality content, we designed a PDO thread lift course that covers all the topics you should understand to add this procedure to your practice and offer safe related services to your future patients.

With our training course, you will be able to learn everything from PDO thread lift placement to the areas you should avoid when doing facial lifting.

Our content includes valuable information on the types of PDO thread sutures for the face, considering variations in size, tissue adhesion, and length. In addition, you will know the advantages of each material.
