PDO Thread Lift

A thread lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses medical-grade threads to tighten and lift the skin. The threads also stimulate the body's collagen production, which can create firmer, more supple skin.  By engaging macrophages and histocytes, these materials stimulate collagen production, delivering the coveted lifting and tightening effects.

Enter the realm of volumizing threads – a mesh network akin to dermal fillers, providing a singular solution for lifting, volumizing, and tightening skin. Seamlessly integrating into tissue, this mesh scaffold ignites cellular rejuvenation, delivering transformative results with unparalleled efficiency.

PDO (polydioxanone) sutures are surgical sutures that are used to perform cardiac surgery. 

  • The threads are then inserted under the skin in precise locations using a small hollow needle to lift and support droopy elements without removing any skin. The inserted thread is then able to grasp onto the droopy skin and soft tissue to reposition the skin. This requires no cuts or incisions. It’s purely done by injections.

  • With the lift effect secured, the hollow needle is removed without leaving any scars.

  • Depending on the desired effect of the lift, few to several sutures will be used.

  • The PDO suture remains underneath the skin. Different sutures and lengths will be used depending upon the area(s) you need lifted.
