What is a PDO Thread Lift?

The PDO thread lift is a non-surgical face, neck, and body-lifting procedure that provides patients with a more youthful and refreshed appearance. This innovative technique utilizes PDO (polydioxanone) threads, which are biocompatible sutures commonly used in surgery, to lift and tighten sagging skin. These threads not only support lax structures within your treated areas, but they also stimulate your body’s natural production of collagen for a youthful-looking lift that keeps improving over time.

What results can I expect from a PDO Thread Lift?

Results from a PDO Thread Lift are often noticed immediately after the procedure. Patients should see immediate lifting and smoothing effects, but the most notable results manifest as the body produces collagen around the threads. This rejuvenating response typically peaks between 6 to 8 weeks post-procedure. Optimal outcomes, including enhanced skin elasticity and contour improvements, generally become more pronounced over the subsequent 3 to 6 months.

The number of PDO thread lift procedures required varies based on patient skin conditions and desired outcomes. Some patients may achieve their aesthetic goals with a single session, whereas others might benefit from multiple treatments. On average, patients opt for 1-2 sessions to notice significant lifting and rejuvenation.

PDO Tread Lift is known for its long-lasting results and, on average, can be enjoyed for 18 months or longer.

Threads B&A

What is it like to get a PDO Thread Lift?

Prior to your PDO Thread Lift procedure, the treatment area will be cleaned with an antiseptic skin cleaner before lidocaine is injected into the treatment areas so that you’ll experience minimal discomfort during the procedure.  Next, the placement path of the threads is outlined to create the best lift for your areas of concern and the tiny hairlike threads are inserted through small punctures and placed into precise locations beneath the skin, where they stimulate collagen production as they tighten and lift the surrounding dermis and deeper tissue for complete tissue rejuvenation. The procedure typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes. Some patients may experience mild swelling, bruising, or discomfort at the injection sites, but these effects generally subside within a few days. 

For optimal patient comfort, Pro-Nox™ and Zimmer Cryo are available. Pro-Nox™ helps patients remain comfortable and at ease throughout the PDO Tread Lift procedure, reducing discomfort and anxiety. This is particularly advantageous for patients who may be sensitive to pain or experience anxiety about cosmetic treatments. While Zimmer Cryo provides a stronger local anesthetic. When used in combination, they provide a more relaxed and pleasant experience.

Do I need to schedule downtime after a PDO Thread Lift?

There is no recovery time associated with a PDO Thread Lift and patients can typically resume their daily activities immediately following the treatment. However, strenuous exercise and saunas should be avoided for 1 to 2 weeks to promote proper healing and minimize bruising.
