Ask Us AnythingPDO threads are absorbable polydioxanone sutures placed beneath the skin to lift and support lax tissue. They also create a temporary scaffold that encourages collagen production as the threads gradually dissolve.
Treatment commonly takes about 45 to 90 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated and the complexity of the lifting plan.
Many patients notice an immediate lifting effect. Skin firmness and texture may continue to improve as collagen develops during the months after treatment.
Results may last up to approximately one year, although duration varies with age, skin quality, lifestyle, treatment area, and the type and number of threads used.
Local anesthesia is used before placement. Patients may feel pressure or mild pulling during treatment and temporary soreness, tightness, or tenderness afterward.
Recovery is commonly several days, though mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness can last longer. Follow your provider’s instructions regarding sleeping position, facial movement, exercise, and skincare.
Good candidates often have mild to moderate skin laxity and enough skin thickness to conceal the threads. Patients with very thin skin, substantial sagging, or advanced aging may need a different treatment approach.
