PDO Threads are biodegradable sutures made of Polydioxanone, a material trusted in medical procedures for decades.

The PDO threads procedure is a minimally invasive treatment designed to lift sagging skin and stimulate collagen production. It begins with a consultation to assess your skin and determine the areas needing treatment. Once the plan is established, the skin is cleansed, and a numbing cream or local anesthesia is applied to ensure comfort. Using a fine needle or cannula, the practitioner inserts dissolvable threads beneath the skin, creating an instant lift and providing structural support. The threads also stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, enhancing skin elasticity and texture over time. The entire procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, with minimal downtime; most patients resume daily activities within a day or two. Immediate lifting effects are visible, and results continue to improve over the next several months as collagen builds, with effects lasting up to 12–18 months.
After the threads are in place, the practitioner gently adjusts the skin to enhance the lifting effect.

A PDO Thread is a thin, biodegradable suture made from polydioxanone (PDO), a material commonly used in medical sutures. PDO Threads are designed for use in aesthetic treatments to lift and tighten sagging skin while stimulating collagen production. They are inserted under the skin using a fine needle or cannula, providing a non-surgical solution for skin rejuvenation. Over time, the threads dissolve naturally, leaving behind firmer, smoother skin due to the collagen stimulated during the process. PDO Threads are safe, effective, and widely used in treatments such as thread lifts for the face, neck, and other areas.
While a PDO Thread Lift provides significant lifting and rejuvenation, it is best suited for individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity. It’s a minimally invasive alternative to a surgical facelift, offering natural results with less downtime.
