Lift Sagging Skin for a More Defined Look

A PDO thread lift is a non-surgical treatment that uses dissolvable threads made of polydioxanone (PDO) to lift and tighten sagging skin. These threads are carefully placed beneath the skin to provide an immediate lifting effect while stimulating collagen production over time. As the threads dissolve naturally, your skin continues to improve in firmness and elasticity. The most common areas treated include the cheeks, jawline, neck, and brows. PDO thread lifts offer a refreshed look—perfect for those wanting noticeable results without surgery.

PDO Thread Lift Treat:

  • Sagging cheeks and midface volume loss
  • Loose skin along the jawline (jowls)
  • Drooping brows or forehead skin
  • Mild to moderate neck laxity
  • Fine lines and wrinkles on the lower face
  • Nasolabial folds and marionette lines
  • Skin laxity around the mouth and chin

How Does PDO Thread Lift Work?

A PDO thread lift works by inserting fine, dissolvable threads made of polydioxanone just beneath the skin. These threads act like scaffolding to lift sagging tissues and stimulate natural collagen production. Over time, the threads are safely absorbed, but the collagen they trigger continues to tighten the skin.

This dual action—immediate lift and long-term rejuvenation—makes PDO thread lifts an effective option. The result is smoother, firmer skin with improved structure and support, all without the need for surgery or significant downtime.

Advantages of PDO Thread Lift:

  • Lift and tighten skin without surgery
  • Stimulate natural collagen production
  • Immediate and long-term results
  • Minimize fine lines and facial sagging
  • Quick treatment with minimal downtime
  • Natural-looking, subtle enhancements
  • Customizing treatment to target specific areas

Your PDO Thread Lift Session

During your PDO thread lift, we’ll begin by cleansing your skin and applying a local anesthetic to ensure your comfort. Using a fine needle or cannula, your provider will insert the PDO threads beneath the skin in strategic areas. These threads are placed to lift, support, and reposition sagging tissue. The procedure takes 30 to 60 minutes, and you’ll be awake throughout. Once the threads are in place, you can return to most normal activities the same day.

PDO Thread Lift FAQs

What Areas Can Be Treated With PDO Threads?

PDO thread lifts are commonly used on the cheeks, jawline, neck, brows, and lower face.

Is the Procedure Painful?

Most patients describe the treatment as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. We use local anesthetic to numb the area, and any sensation you feel is usually brief and manageable.

Is There Downtime After Treatment?

Downtime is minimal. You might experience slight swelling, bruising, or tenderness for a few days, but most people return to normal routines shortly after the procedure. We’ll provide specific aftercare guidance to help you heal comfortably.

When Will I See the Results?

You’ll notice an immediate lifting effect right after your session. However, the full benefits develop gradually over several weeks as your body produces new collagen around the threads, enhancing firmness and improving skin texture.

How Long Do PDO Thread Lift Results Last?

Most patients enjoy results that last 12 to 18 months. Over time, your body naturally absorbs the threads, but collagen production continues, helping to maintain firmer, more lifted skin. Some patients opt to undergo annual treatments to maintain optimal results.
