PDO Thread Treatments
PDO thread treatments are a great option for those looking to restore a more youthful facial appearance. There are two types of threads available, PDO Rejuvenation Threads and PDO COG Threads.
PDO Rejuvenation Threads: Rejuvenation threads will help replace lost collagen resulting in skin tightening, rejuvenation & volume increase. We use a range of mono threads, spiral threads and multi-threads to treat the midface, jawline and chin areas.
PDO COG Threads: COG or barbed threads are used to provide an immediate lift and tightening. We use the latest COG threads for cheek and jawline insertion providing a “no blade facelift”!.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a PDO Thread Lift?
A PDO thread lift is a revolutionary new treatment in the world of aesthetics, even though PDO threads themselves have been used safely for decades for various applications, like treating gynaecological disorders or suturing incisions after medical procedures. When used as an aesthetic treatment, there are a few things you should know.
First, it mechanically results in instant skin lifting. Second, it contracts fat tissue to result in instant skin tightening. Third, it promotes collagen production and neovascularization to renew your skin at the cellular level. All of this works together to give you enhanced skin texture, fewer fine lines and wrinkles and more elastic skin.
What areas can a PDO thread lift treat?
Because a PDO thread lift is so versatile, it can treat virtually any area of the face. These include the:
– Neck
– Jowls
– Jawline
– Naso jugal folds
– Nasolabial folds
– Crow’s feet
– Undereye area
– Eyebrows
– Cheeks
– Marionette lines
The cheeks and the lower face/neck region are the most commonly treated. The cheeks and lower face are perfect regions to treat because they lend themselves to synergistic skin lifting treatments like Ultherapy.
Am I a good candidate for a PDO Thread Lift?
If you’re looking to correct uneven pigmentation, lines, wrinkles, gaunt facial features or skin laxity of the face, you are a good candidate for a PDO thread lift. You are a good candidate for this treatment if you want an instant facial lift but don’t have the time or money to commit to a traditional facelift.
How soon will I see the results?
Some results, such as skin lifting and some of the contouring effects, are visible immediately after treatment. Your skin may look tighter when you walk out of our office than it will a week later.
The final results of your PDO thread lift will be seen within one to two months of your treatment. How long it takes you personally depends a lot on your age. Your age is one of the leading factors in how quickly your body produces new, healthy collagen. Collagen is the protein responsible for plumping up your cheeks, filling in fine lines and smoothing out wrinkles.
What do I need to do after my treatment?
There are not a lot of special after-care requirements for this treatment. However, you should hold off on any dental treatments for the first two weeks after your PDO thread lift. Holding your mouth open for an excessive amount of time can affect the results of your treatment. Moreover, you’ll want to sleep on your back for the first couple of weeks. This ensures you don’t put too much pressure on one side of your face. Back to work time is usually between 2-7 days.
