PDO Threads
Southlake & DFW Area
What are PDO Threads?
PDO (Polydioxanone) Threads are dissolvable sutures used in a non-surgical facelift and skin rejuvenation treatment to lift, tighten, and stimulate collagen production. These threads are inserted under the skin to create a subtle lift while promoting natural collagen synthesis over time.
PDO Threads come in different types:
- Lifting Threads – Provide immediate lifting effects for sagging skin, commonly used on the face, jawline, and neck.
- Smooth Threads – Stimulate collagen production to improve fine lines, wrinkles, and skin texture.
Over time, the threads dissolve naturally while leaving behind firmer, tighter, and more youthful-looking skin. This treatment is commonly used for the face, neck, jowls, and even body areas that need tightening and contouring.
Face and Body
PDO Threads for Face and Body provide a non-surgical solution to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate skin, enhancing contours and stimulating collagen for a firmer, more youthful appearance.
PDO Nose/Non-surgical Rhinoplasty
PDO Nose Thread Lift (Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty) uses dissolvable threads to enhance the nose’s shape, lift the bridge, and refine the tip without surgery, providing a natural, structured appearance with minimal downtime.
What Are the types of PDO Threads?
Lifting Threads (Barbed or Cog Threads) – Designed with tiny barbs or cogs that anchor into the skin and provide an immediate lifting and tightening effect. Commonly used for the jawline, cheeks, neck, and brow lift.
Smooth Threads – Stimulate collagen production and improve fine lines, wrinkles, and skin texture without lifting. Often used for the under-eye area, neck, forehead, and décolletage.
Twisted (Screw) Threads – Provide more volume and collagen stimulation than smooth threads, making them ideal for deeper wrinkles, nasolabial folds, and cheeks.
