A subtle lift without surgery. Dissolvable threads gently reposition skin and encourage new collagen, so you look refreshed with minimal downtime.

Thinking about PDO Thread Lift? Find what’s right for you
Take this 60-second quiz. Four quick questions and we’ll point you to the treatment most likely to get you the result you want.
Where it lifts
PDO threads are fine, dissolvable sutures placed under the skin to lift and support. These are the areas patients ask about most. Tap one to see what it helps with.
Lifts mild sagging along the jawline for a cleaner, more defined lower face and a sharper side profile.
Gently repositions the cheeks upward, which can also soften the folds around your nose and mouth.
A subtle lift at the tail of the brow can open up your eyes and help you look more awake.
Threads can support loose neck skin and encourage collagen for a smoother, firmer look over time.
Smooth threads placed in a mesh pattern focus on collagen, helping skin look thicker and firmer rather than lifted.
Not sure if it’s right for you? That’s exactly what the consult is for.
Lift now, firm later.
Threads give a subtle, immediate lift with no incisions or general anesthesia. It’s not a facelift, but it can be a great step before one.
As the threads dissolve, they encourage your skin to make new collagen, which can keep skin looking firmer for months.
PDO is the same material used in dissolvable surgical sutures. Your body gradually absorbs it over about six months.
Threads work nicely alongside Botox, filler or Sculptra for a full plan that lifts, smooths and restores volume.
What to expect, day by day.
Tap through the timeline. You’ll see a lift right away, and collagen keeps building after that.

Before & after care
A few simple steps help you get the best possible result.
For a few days before, avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, and similar supplements when it’s safe for you, to reduce bruising. Check with your doctor.
Skipping alcohol for a day or two before can help minimize bruising and swelling.
Arriving makeup-free in the treatment areas makes things quicker.
Book at least three to four weeks before a big event so swelling, bruising and any puckering have time to settle.
General guidance only. We'll give you personal instructions at your visit.
