What are PDO Threads?

PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are medical-grade absorbable sutures that are strategically inserted beneath the skin to lift and support aging tissues. As the threads dissolve, they stimulate natural collagen production, firming the skin and enhancing overall tone and elasticity.

PDO threads can lift sagging skin, redefine facial contours, and improve skin texture over time- offering both immediate and long-lasting rejuvenation without the need for surgery.

How PDO Threads Work

The PDO thread lift works through a two-fold approach to facial rejuvenation. First, fine threads are inserted beneath the skin using a delicate cannula, instantly lifting and repositioning tissue for a natural, refreshed appearance. This immediate lifting effect helps restore youthful contours without the need for surgery.

Over the following months, the threads gradually dissolve while stimulating the body's natural production of collagen and elastin. This process enhances skin firmness, texture, and volume, delivering long-lasting improvement. Depending on your goals, different types of threads, whether lifting, smoothing, or volumizing, can be strategically placed in targeted areas to achieve personalized results.

What to Expect During Your PDO Threads Treatment

Your visit begins with a personalized consultation to assess your skin, discuss your goals, and determine the best thread placement and type. PDO threads are often recommended for mild to moderate sagging and early aging.

Preparation

To optimize your results and minimize any side effects, follow these guidelines:

  • Stay well-hydrated
  • Avoid blood-thinning medications (as advised)
  • Wear comfortable clothing
  • Keep skincare simple the day of treatment

We'll help you choose the best time for your session based on your schedule and any upcoming events.

Your Procedure

To ensure comfort throughout the procedure, a numbing cream or local anesthetic is first applied to the treatment area. Once the skin is prepared, fine PDO threads are carefully placed beneath the surface using a thin, hollow cannula, allowing for precise lifting and repositioning.

The entire treatment typically takes just 30 to 60 minutes, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. While some minor swelling or bruising may occur afterward, these effects are temporary and generally resolve within a few days, allowing you to quickly return to your normal activities.

Risks and Side Effects

PDO Threads may cause mild swelling, tenderness, or slight bruising in the treated areas. These effects are temporary and typically improve within a few days to one week as the skin settles.

Some guests may feel a light tightness or awareness of the threads at first, which gradually softens as the threads integrate. Most people return to normal daily activities shortly after treatment while following the recommended aftercare.

Ideal Candidates

You're a good candidate for PDO Threads if you have:

  • Have mild to moderate skin laxity in the face or neck
  • Want a non-surgical alternative to facelift procedures
  • Prefer gradual, natural-looking results
  • Are in overall good health and not pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Are looking to enhance or maintain results from fillers, RF, or other treatments

Pregnant individuals or those with certain medical conditions should discuss options with our licensed providers.

How Long Do PDO Threads Results Last?

Results from PDO threading are both immediate and progressive. The lifting effect is visible right away, while full collagen-stimulating benefits build over 2-3 months. Most results last 12- 18 months, with maintenance treatments recommended once or twice per year depending on age and skin condition.

How PDO Threads Compares to Other Options

PDO threads uniquely combine lifting and collagen stimulation without volume. While dermal fillers add fullness and neurotoxins smooth dynamic wrinkles, PDO threads improve contour, skin tightness, and structure. They're often used in combination with other treatments like RF microneedling, laser, or fillers for a full-face approach.
