Why Practitioners Choose RAINBOW® Threads

• PDO and PCLA within one portfolio: The RAINBOW® range includes both polydioxanone and poly-L-lactide-co-caprolactone threads, allowing practitioners to select a material according to the intended treatment duration and tissue response. PDO is commonly used for lighter lifting and collagen-support applications, while PCLA degrades more slowly and may provide a longer period of structural support and collagen stimulation.
• A gold-embossed monofilament option: RAINBOW® Gold Embossing threads pair PDO monofilaments with a 24-karat gold surface treatment. They are positioned for collagen stimulation and skin-quality procedures, particularly in delicate areas where a lighter thread configuration may be preferred. This design also gives clinics an additional option beyond conventional PDO thread portfolios.

What Are RAINBOW® Threads Used For?

Depending on the product configuration, RAINBOW® threads may be used for facial contouring, wrinkle softening, skin tightening, tissue support, collagen stimulation, and texture improvement in appropriately selected patients. Common treatment areas include the midface, jawline, jowls, brow, neck, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines.[2][5] Thread lifting is not a substitute for a surgical facelift. Patients should be counseled that the degree of lift is usually modest, results may be more noticeable in some individuals than others, and both their visibility and duration can vary. The available long-term evidence also remains limited.[2][4]

RAINBOW® Thread Types & Product Range

Mono threads are smooth absorbable sutures used primarily for collagen stimulation, skin quality, and firmness protocols. They do not provide the same mechanical grip as barbed threads and are suited to skin-quality treatment rather than significant tissue repositioning. Cog threads contain barbs that engage the tissue, generating traction for lifting and repositioning. They have been reported to produce modest facial rejuvenation in appropriately selected patients and are commonly used in the midface, jawline, and jowls. [3][5] Spiral or screw threads have a coiled configuration that creates localized support and a subtle volumizing effect while stimulating tissue remodeling.

 Product Range

• RAINBOW® 3D COG threads are supplied in the 21G90-L configuration, using a three-dimensional barbed design for pronounced mechanical lift and tissue repositioning.
• RAINBOW® Gold Embossing Mono 29G38 combines a PDO monofilament with a gold surface treatment and is supplied in 20-piece packs for collagen-focused skin-quality protocols and delicate treatment areas.
• RAINBOW® Gold Embossing Mono 29G50 offers the same gold-embossed mono format in a longer configuration for practitioners who require a different thread length.
• RAINBOW® PDO Thread Mono 29G/38 is a standard smooth polydioxanone thread for collagen stimulation, skin tightening, and general facial rejuvenation.
• RAINBOW® PCLA Screw 29G38–50mm combines the longer-lasting PCLA polymer with a screw configuration to provide localized support and promote tissue remodeling.
• RAINBOW® PCLA screw threads in the 29G50–70mm configuration provide a longer screw option for broader treatment areas.
• RAINBOW® PCLA Mono 27G60–100mm is a smooth PCLA thread for collagen-focused protocols that require a longer thread and a more prolonged polymer degradation.

PDO vs PCLA Threads

PDO threads are more established and typically absorb within six to eight months, with collagen effects lasting up to around 12 months. PCLA breaks down more slowly, providing longer structural support and effects that commonly last 12 to 18 months. [4] PDO is generally suited to lighter lifting and skin-quality treatments, while PCLA may be preferred for longer-lasting support. RAINBOW® offers both options, allowing selection based on the treatment goal.

How Long Do RAINBOW® Threads Last?

RAINBOW® thread-lift results may remain visible for around 12 to 18 months, although longevity varies from one patient to another.[4] PDO threads typically sit at the shorter end of that range, while PCLA options break down more gradually and may provide longer-lasting support. The final duration also depends on the thread design, treatment area, severity of tissue laxity, number of threads placed, and the practitioner’s technique.

RAINBOW® Threads Safety Profile

Expected treatment effects are bruising, swelling, tenderness, discomfort, and temporary asymmetry. Less common side effects are dimpling, visible or displaced threads, infection, contour irregularities, and undercorrection. This will sometimes require adjustment or removal. [3][4] Contraindications may include active infection, known hypersensitivity to the thread material, pregnancy or breastfeeding, bleeding disorders, and certain autoimmune or connective-tissue conditions. Reducing treatment risk also depends on appropriate patient selection, sound anatomical knowledge, proper practitioner training, and a thorough informed-consent process.

RAINBOW® vs Other Thread Brands

vs SILHOUETTE SOFT®

SILHOUETTE SOFT® uses PLLA/PLGA suspension sutures with bidirectional cones rather than conventional barbs. The cone-based mechanism is designed for tissue repositioning and places the range in a different procedural and pricing category from standard mono and cog threads. RAINBOW® offers a wider mix of PDO and PCLA mono, cog, and screw configurations, making the two ranges better understood as different tools for different cases rather than interchangeable systems.

vs INTRALINE®

INTRALINE® PDO threads include mono, cog, and spiral designs, making it one of the more direct comparisons to RAINBOW® in terms of product terminology, intended applications, and clinical positioning. RAINBOW® distinguishes its portfolio by including both PDO and PCLA threads, along with gold-embossed monofilament options. This gives practitioners access to a wider choice of polymers and differentiated thread configurations within one brand.

vs ULTRA V®

ULTRA V® is associated with PDO thread products as well as the ULTRACOL collagen-stimulation range. RAINBOW® differentiates through its dual-polymer selection and gold-embossed threads — product-range distinctions rather than claims of superior clinical performance.

About RAINBOW® (Oreon Life Science)

RAINBOW® threads are manufactured by South Korea-based Oreon Life Science and are available in PDO and PCLA formats, including mono, cog, screw, and gold-embossed designs. The company cites CE conformity, ISO 13485 certification, and Korean manufacturing standards among its quality credentials. These do not guarantee identical authorization for every product or market. [1]

RAINBOW® Regulatory Status

RAINBOW® threads are marketed internationally as CE-marked devices produced under an ISO 13485-certified quality system. Regulatory status remains product- and country-specific, so practitioners should verify the exact SKU before ordering or use. CE marking does not imply FDA clearance. U.S. authorization applies only to specific products and indications, so the current FDA status of each RAINBOW® thread should be confirmed separately. [1]

FAQs

What is the difference between PDO and PCLA threads?

PDO threads are typically absorbed within six to eight months, but the collagen response they stimulate may keep improvements visible for up to about 12 months. PCLA breaks down more gradually, so its effects may persist longer—often around 12 to 18 months. RAINBOW® offers thread options made from both materials.[4]

What is the difference between mono, cog, and spiral threads?

Mono threads are smooth and are generally selected to support collagen production and improve overall skin quality. Cog threads have small barbs that grip the surrounding tissue, allowing them to lift and reposition targeted areas. Spiral, or screw, threads have a coiled structure that can provide added support and a subtle volumizing effect.[3][5]

How long do RAINBOW® thread results last?

RAINBOW® thread results may remain visible for approximately 12 to 18 months. Longevity varies depending on the polymer used, thread design, treatment area, placement technique, and the patient’s individual response. Because PCLA degrades more slowly, it may provide longer-lasting effects than PDO.[4]

How do RAINBOW® threads compare with SILHOUETTE SOFT®?

RAINBOW® offers smooth, barbed, and screw threads made from either PDO or PCLA. By comparison, SILHOUETTE SOFT® uses PLLA/PLGA sutures fitted with bidirectional cones. The two product lines differ in polymer composition, method of tissue engagement, available configurations, and price positioning.
