What is a PDO Thread Lift and how does it work?
PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are medical-grade sutures that are inserted beneath the skin to lift tissue, stimulate collagen, and improve skin firmness. These threads anchor loose skin and reposition it into a more youthful contour. Over time, the threads dissolve naturally while triggering your body’s collagen production—leaving firmer, smoother skin behind.
There are two primary types:
• Lifting threads with barbs or cones to mechanically reposition skin
• Smooth threads used for collagen stimulation in areas with fine lines or crepey texture

What can I expect during the procedure?
After a consultation, topical numbing and local anesthetic are applied. Threads are inserted using a blunt-tip cannula or fine needle. The treatment takes 45–60 minutes and is done in-office. You may feel pressure or mild pulling during the procedure but no sharp pain.

What is the downtime and recovery?
Downtime is minimal. Mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness may last 3–5 days. Most patients resume daily activities the next day but should avoid strenuous activity, dental work, or facial massages for 7–10 days.

When will I see results, and how long do they last?
You’ll notice immediate lifting and contouring, with full results developing over the next 4–6 weeks as collagen production increases. Results typically last 12–18 months, depending on the number of threads used, skin condition, and lifestyle factors. Maintenance treatments are available as needed.
