Revitalizing beauty with PDO threads – lifting and tightening for a radiant, youthful glow.

PDO threads, or polydioxanone threads, are a type of absorbable suture used in non-surgical cosmetic procedures. These threads are commonly employed for facial rejuvenation. During a PDO threading procedure, the threads are strategically inserted into the skin to lift and tighten, stimulating collagen production. Over time, as the threads dissolve, they leave behind a supportive collagen structure, enhancing skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of sagging or wrinkles. It’s a minimally invasive technique for a subtle and natural-looking facelift effect.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and feels much like other types of injectables. You will be positioned comfortably in a beach-chair position in a well-lit procedure room. Your pre-procedure photos are taken, markings on the skin are made with a cosmetic pencil, and the skin is cleansed. A small amount of local anesthetic will be used to numb the treatment areas, then the threadlift is performed via small insertion sites with a needle size similar to a blood draw. Depending on the area(s) addressed, anywhere between 4 to 24 threads may be used. The threadlift material has low reactivity; however, please let your provider know if you are allergic to polydioxanone, latex, lidocaine or epinephrine. You will feel numb for 30-45 minutes after the procedure but well enough to drive home. You can resume regular activity once you feel healed.
