PDO Threads


PDO threads are used to achieve the lifted, refreshed look of a facelift without surgery or downtime.

A thread-lift is a minimally-invasive procedure that tightens the skin without the need for big incisions. We use small needles, or cannulas, to insert fine threads under the skin. The threads are thinner than hair. These threads are designed to anchor sagging skin and lift it upwards. Threads stimulate collagen production, which diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Similar to surgical sutures, polydioxanone (PDO) threads are medical-grade, absorbable threads made of a material that safely dissolves when inserted under the skin. As they dissolve, they stimulate your body’s collagen production, restoring a natural lift in the face that can last for up to two years.
