PDO Threads

About this treatment

What Is PDO Threads?

PDO thread lifting uses fine, absorbable polydioxanone threads — the same biocompatible material used in surgical sutures for decades — to gently lift sagging tissue and re-stimulate your skin's own collagen production. As the threads dissolve over the following months, they leave behind new supportive collagen for a naturally firmer, more lifted appearance.

Am I a candidate?

PDO threads are ideal for patients experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity — often in the midface, jowls, jawline, or neck — who want a visible lift without surgery or general anesthesia. Good candidates have realistic expectations and want gradual, natural-looking improvement.
