Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – PDO Thread Lifts
What is a PDO Thread Lift?
A PDO thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that uses dissolvable sutures to lift and tighten sagging skin. Beyond providing an immediate lifting effect, PDO threads also stimulate natural collagen production, improving skin firmness and elasticity over time.
How long do the results last?
Results typically last 12 to 18 months, depending on individual skin type, lifestyle, and the type of PDO threads used. Collagen production continues even after the threads dissolve, prolonging the effects.
Is the procedure painful?
PDO thread lifts involve minimal discomfort. A local anesthetic is applied to ensure a comfortable experience. Some patients may feel mild pressure or tugging during the treatment.
What areas can be treated?
PDO threads are commonly used for:
✔ Jawline definition
✔ Cheek and mid-face lifting
✔ Eyebrow elevation
✔ Neck tightening
✔ Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
How long is the downtime?
Downtime is minimal—most patients resume daily activities within 24 to 48 hours. Some mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness may occur but usually subsides within a few days.
Who is a good candidate for PDO thread lifts?
When will I see results?
Some lifting is visible immediately, with continued improvement over the next 3 to 6 months as collagen production increases.
Can PDO threads be combined with other treatments?
Yes! PDO thread lifts can be paired with dermal fillers, anti-wrinkle injections, and skin rejuvenation treatments for enhanced results.
