About PDO Thread Lift
PDO Thread Lift is a minimally invasive procedure that uses dissolvable medical-grade threads to physically lift sagging skin and create an immediate, visible improvement in facial contours. The threads are gently placed beneath the skin using a thin needle, repositioning tissue for a natural-looking lift. Over the following months, your body builds new collagen around each thread, providing sustained structural support that lasts well beyond when the threads dissolve. The threads are fully biocompatible and dissolve naturally over 6–9 months, but the collagen framework they stimulate can maintain your results for 12–18 months or longer. The procedure is excellent for lifting the mid-face, defining the jawline, softening deep folds, tightening the neck, and lifting the brows. We also use smooth threads (without barbs) to stimulate collagen production in areas like the neck, under-eyes, and chest where lifting isn't the primary goal — just improved skin quality and firmness. The procedure takes 45–90 minutes under local anesthesia, and most patients experience 3–5 days of swelling and possible bruising. We recommend avoiding strenuous activity for about a week. The combination of immediate lifting plus progressive collagen building gives you both instant gratification and results that continue to improve over the weeks and months ahead.
