PDO Thread Lift

Collagen-stimulating PDO threads for facial and neck lifting

PDO threads — made from the same absorbable suture material used in cardiac surgery — provide the most established safety record among thread lift options. Inserted beneath the skin, they lift tissue immediately and trigger a prolonged collagen response that firms and tightens the treated area over 6 months.

PDO threads are available in smooth, twisted and barbed configurations — smooth threads improve skin quality while barbed cog threads provide mechanical lifting force. The right configuration is selected based on the area treated and degree of laxity.

Frequently Asked Questions About PDO Thread Lift

What is the difference between PDO, PCL and PLLA threads?

PDO dissolves in 6 months and is the most established; PLLA provides longer stimulation over 12–18 months; PCL is the longest-lasting at 18–24 months — the dermatologist selects based on your goals.

Is a PDO thread lift painful?

Local anaesthetic makes the procedure comfortable; mild soreness at insertion points is common for a few days after.
