PDO Threads
PDO threads combine immediate support with collagen stimulation over time, making them different from traditional filler.
They can be a strong option for patients who want more lift and definition without surgical downtime.

Treatment details
What to know before booking.
PDO threads can support non-surgical lifting and collagen stimulation for selected patients with early laxity or contour concerns. The plan sets realistic expectations around immediate support, gradual collagen response, and combination care.
How PDO thread lifting is planned
This section explains what PDO threads are meant to do, how thread types differ, common treatment areas, and how threads can fit with fillers, wrinkle relaxers, and collagen support.
What PDO threads are meant to do
PDO threads are absorbable sutures placed under the skin to create support and stimulate collagen response. They are not a surgical facelift replacement, but they can help selected patients with early laxity or contour concerns.
- Can provide immediate structural support in selected areas
- Can encourage collagen support as the threads dissolve over time
- Best suited for realistic non-surgical lift and contour goals
Thread types
Different thread types serve different purposes. The provider chooses the thread style based on lift, texture, collagen support, or volume-support goals.
- Smooth threads may be used for collagen-focused texture support
- Barbed or lifting threads may be used for brows, cheeks, jowls, jawline, or neck support
- Twisted threads may be discussed when targeted volume-style support is the goal
Common treatment areas
Treatment areas depend on anatomy, skin quality, and the degree of laxity. Threads work best when the tissue can respond without needing surgical correction.
- Brows, cheeks, jawline, jowls, and neck
- Nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and selected lip-area support
- Texture-prone areas where collagen stimulation is part of the plan
Immediate lift vs. collagen support
Patients may notice some support early, but collagen-related changes develop gradually. The provider explains what happens right away versus what builds over time.
- Early support comes from thread placement and tissue repositioning
- Collagen response develops over weeks to months
- Bruising, swelling, tenderness, and activity restrictions are reviewed before treatment
Combination planning
PDO threads can pair with fillers, Botox or Dysport, Sculptra, Radiesse, PRP, or skin treatments when the concern includes lift, volume, movement, and skin quality.
- Fillers may support structure or volume where threads are not the right tool
- Botox or Dysport may soften movement-related lines
- Biostimulators and skin treatments may support collagen and skin quality over time
