A PDO thread lift, also known as a thread lift or a PDO thread treatment, is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure designed to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate sagging or aging skin on the face, neck, and other areas of the body. PDO stands for polydioxanone, which is a biocompatible material commonly used in surgical sutures.
During a PDO thread lift, medical-grade threads made of PDO are strategically inserted beneath the skin using thin needles or cannulas. These threads act as a supportive structure, lifting and repositioning the skin to create a more youthful and lifted appearance. The threads also stimulate the production of collagen, a natural protein that provides skin firmness and elasticity. As the threads dissolve over time, the newly produced collagen helps maintain the lifted effect, contributing to longer-lasting results.

PDO threads offer several benefits when used in cosmetic procedures, primarily for facial rejuvenation and skin tightening. Some benefits include:
PDO (Polydioxanone) threads work by providing a non-surgical lift and stimulating collagen production to rejuvenate the skin. The PDO thread is inserted under the skin through small, minimally invasive incisions. The threads are made of a biocompatible material, polydioxanone, which is commonly used in medical sutures.
Once the threads are in place, they are strategically positioned and manipulated to lift sagging skin and tissues. Depending on the specific treatment area and desired results, the threads may be inserted vertically, horizontally or in a mesh-like pattern. PDO threads have tiny barbs or cones along their length. These barbs or cones grip onto the skin and underlying tissue, creating an immediate lifting effect. This helps to reposition sagging skin and restore a more youthful facial contour!
It’s important to note that the specific technique and thread configuration used can vary depending on the patient’s needs and the treatment area. PDO thread treatments are versatile and can be customised to address different concerns, including sagging skin on the face, neck and body.
PDO Threads effectively enhance skin tightness and firmness. Within 8-12 weeks, noticeable improvements become apparent, and these benefits can persist for up to 12 months. As the threads gradually dissolve, they actively stimulate collagen and elastin production, resulting in a comprehensive anti-aging outcome.
To ensure the best results, we recommend a maintenance treatment at 12 months after your first treatment.
