The PDO thread is a unique medical-grade thread that is thinner than
hair inserted into either the intradermal tissue (if smooth
threads) or subcutaneous (if barbed threads) for temporary
support of the treated area. Over the next six months, the body
dissolves the PDO threads, which stimulates neo-collagenesis, which produces new collagen in the skin. It also stimulates elastin and
hyaluronic acid; both substances are vital to maintaining firm, youthful-looking skin.
The Threads:
PDO threads are FDA Cleared Cannula PDO threads are designed to anchor sagging skin and lift it upwards. They are perfect for anyone looking to correct lines, wrinkles, sagging skin under the chin and near the cheeks, and much more.
The Needle:
PDO threads use tiny needles to insert thinner-than-hair, absorbable threads under the skin. There is no need for extensive incisions or invasive procedures.
The Lift:
Once underneath the skin, a trained provider will navigate the thread into position. The needle is then removed, leaving the thread engaged. This will re-approximate the tissue and, over time, stimulate collagen growth.
Recovery & Results:
Minor inflammation and bruising may occur in the first few days, but this usually resolves after a week. The PDO threads dissolve after six to nine months, but thanks to the production of collagen, their effects can last up to two years.

PDO lifting threads are specialized, absorbable sutures made from polydioxanone (PDO) that are inserted into the skin to lift and tighten sagging areas. They stimulate collagen production and create a scaffolding effect, enhancing skin elasticity and providing a more youthful appearance.
PDO lifting threads feature barbs or hooks that anchor the threads and provide lifting effects, while Smooth PDO threads are smooth and primarily used to enhance skin texture and stimulate collagen production without lifting. Smooth threads are ideal for treating fine lines and improving skin quality.
Common side effects may include swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the treatment site. More serious complications, although rare, can include infection or thread migration. It's essential to consult with a qualified practitioner to discuss potential risks and ensure the procedure is suitable for you.
The results of PDO lifting threads can last between 6 to 18 months, depending on various factors such as the individual's skin type, age, and lifestyle. Smooth PDO threads may provide a more gradual improvement in skin texture over time as collagen production increases, typically lasting around 6 to 12 months.
