What is PDO Thread Lift?

A PDO thread lift uses dissolvable polydioxanone threads — the same material used in surgical sutures — to gently reposition sagging skin. Barbed threads provide an immediate lift, while smooth threads stimulate collagen to improve firmness over the following months.

It is a middle ground between injectables and a surgical facelift, popular for early jowling, a lower brow and loose skin along the jaw and neck.

How the treatment works

Under local anesthesia, threads are inserted beneath the skin through a fine cannula and anchored to lift tissue. The procedure takes 45 to 90 minutes and patients go home the same day.

What PDO Thread Lift can help with

  • Mild to moderate jowls

  • Sagging cheeks

  • Low or heavy brows

  • Loose neck skin

  • Jawline definition

Before and after your appointment

  1. Sleep on your back and avoid wide mouth opening for about a week.
  2. Skip dental work, facials and massage for two to three weeks.
  3. Some puckering or tightness is normal and settles as the threads relax.
  4. Threads dissolve over about six months while the collagen they stimulated remains.
