PDO Threads

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at (631) 624-0262 if you cannot find an answer to your question.

PDO (Polydioxanone) Threads are a non-surgical treatment designed to lift and rejuvenate the skin using biocompatible, absorbable sutures. Originally used in medical suturing, PDO threads are safely inserted beneath the skin to provide immediate lifting effects while stimulating natural collagen production.


Yes, PDO Threads are considered safe when administered by a trained and qualified medical professional. They are FDA-cleared for soft tissue approximation and widely used in aesthetic treatments for non-surgical lifting and skin rejuvenation.


Most clients experience only mild discomfort. A local anesthetic is used to numb the area, making the procedure very tolerable. Any post-treatment soreness typically resolves in a few days.


Once inserted under the skin, the threads provide an immediate lifting effect. Over the next few months, your body naturally absorbs the threads while producing more collagen around them, enhancing firmness and elasticity.


What are the different types of PDO Threads?

Lifting Threads

Lifting Threads

Lifting Threads

Lifting PDO Threads are a type of absorbable suture made from Polydioxanone (PDO), designed to lift and reposition sagging skin without surgery. Lifting threads have tiny barbs or cogs that anchor into the tissue, allowing the skin to be gently pulled upward for an immediate lifting effect.

Soft Threads

Lifting Threads

Lifting Threads

Soft PDO Threads are smooth, absorbable sutures made from Polydioxanone (PDO). These threads do not provide a lifting effect but are designed to rejuvenate the skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production.

Benefits of lifting and soft threads

Lifting Threads:

1. Immediate Lifting Effect

  • Threads mechanically lift sagging skin on the jawline, cheeks, neck, brows, and more.
  • Results are visible right after the procedure.

2. Collagen Stimulation

  • The threads activate natural collagen and elastin production as they dissolve.
  • This improves skin firmness, elasticity, and texture over time.

3. Minimally Invasive

  • No cutting, stitches, or anesthesia.
  • Quick in-office procedure with minimal downtime.

4. Natural-Looking Results

  • Enhances facial contours without the "overdone" look of surgery.
  • Gradual improvements that maintain your natural expression.

5. Long-Lasting Effects

  • Threads dissolve in 4–6 months, but collagen remodeling continues.
  • Results can last 12 to 18 months depending on age, skin condition, and lifestyle.

6. Safe and Biocompatible

  • Made from PDO, a material used in surgery for decades.
  • Fully absorbed by the body with a strong safety profile.

Soft Threads:

1. Stimulates Collagen Production

  • Soft threads activate your skin’s natural healing process, boosting collagen and elastin to improve firmness and elasticity over time.

2. Improves Skin Texture & Tone

  • Helps reduce fine lines, crepey skin, and rough texture, leaving the skin looking smoother and more refreshed.

3. Minimally Invasive & Gentle

  • No cuts or surgery, just tiny threads placed under the skin with a fine needle. Quick, low-discomfort treatment with minimal downtime.

4. Versatile for Multiple Areas

  • Ideal for neck, under eyes, forehead, smile lines, and other areas where skin is thinner or less suited to lifting threads.

5. Natural, Gradual Results

  • Results build gradually as collagen regenerates. Perfect for clients who want subtle, natural looking enhancement.

6. Safe and Absorbable

  • Made of medical grade PDO, these threads are biodegradable and fully absorbed by the body within 4–6 months.

7. Great Preventive Treatment

  • Excellent for younger clients or those showing early signs of aging. Helps maintain skin quality and delay the need for more invasive procedures.
