Mono • Cog • Screw

Our PDO Thread treatment is a non-surgical, minimally invasive way to help correct sagging skin, promote collagen, and improve lines and wrinkles. The breakdown of collagen and elastin as we age will cause our skin to noticeable drop, or sag. This, along with the lines and wrinkles it creates give us that aged and tired appearance, but this treatment can bring back a youthful and natural looking appearance.


An absorbable thread made from Polydioxanone (PDO) is inserted into specific areas of your face and body. The threads will subtly lift and tightening your skin in that area. 


As the threads absorb over the next several months it will promote collagen building in the treated area, keeping the skin in place. The effects of PDO Threads can last up to two years!

FAQ's

  • How soon will I see results?

    One of the great things about a PDO Thread treatment is that you can see an immediate difference. The "lifting" of the area can will happen at the time of treatment.


    Multiple threads may be needed depending on the area. While you you will see reusults immediatley, those results will improve over time (several weeks, to months).

  • What is the downtime?

    Downtime with PDO Threads are considered minimal. You may return back to most of your normal routines the same day. We do advise you to avoid exercise for 24-48 hours, and if you receive threads on the sides of your face it's best to avoid sleeping on the treated area.



    Minor bruising may occur at the treatment site, but that will resolve itself in a few days. 


  • How does a PDO Thread treatment work?

    Once inserted, PDO Threads trigger two key processes:


    • Immediate Lifting: The threads physically lift and support sagging tissues, providing an instant visible improvement.
    • Collagen Stimulation: Over time, your body gradually absorbs the threads, prompting your skin to produce its own collagen – the key building block for youthful firmness and elasticity. 

    This collagen boost delivers long-lasting results that continue to improve even after the threads dissolve providing you:

    • Lift and tighten sagging skin on the face, neck, and brows.
    • Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
    • Improve skin texture and firmness.
