NON-SURGICAL FACIAL REJUVENATION
What Are PDO Threads?
PDO threads are absorbable sutures placed beneath the skin to help support tissue, create subtle lift, and stimulate collagen production over time. They are often used for clients who want a refreshed, more lifted appearance without surgery or significant downtime.
PDO thread treatments can be customized for areas such as the lower face, jawline, cheeks, brows, neck, and other areas where mild laxity or loss of definition is a concern. Results are designed to look natural, not overdone, with treatment planning focused on facial balance and long-term skin support.
TREATMENT BENEFITS
What PDO Threads Can Help With
PDO threads may be recommended for clients who want subtle improvement in facial support, contour, and skin firmness. They can be especially helpful when early laxity or loss of definition is beginning to appear, but surgery is not desired.
Subtle Facial Lifting
PDO threads can help support mild skin laxity and create a more refreshed, lifted appearance in the right candidate.
Collagen Stimulation
As the threads gradually absorb, they can help stimulate collagen production to support skin firmness and structure over time.
Jawline
Definition
Threads may help improve the appearance of early jowling or softening along the jawline.
Natural-Looking Results
Treatment plans are customized to enhance your existing features while avoiding an overdone or unnatural appearance.
Lower Face Support
PDO threads can be used to support areas of mild laxity around the cheeks, lower face, and mouth.
Minimally Invasive Approach
PDO threads offer a non-surgical option for clients seeking subtle lift and support with less downtime than surgery.

THE TREATMENT PROCESS
How PDO Threads Work & Treatment Planning
PDO threads are placed beneath the skin using a specialized technique designed to support tissue and encourage collagen remodeling. Once placed, the threads provide an immediate supportive effect, while collagen stimulation continues gradually as the threads dissolve over time.
Your treatment plan is based on your facial anatomy, skin quality, degree of laxity, and overall goals. PDO threads are typically best suited for clients with mild to moderate laxity, early jowling, softening along the jawline, or a desire for subtle lift without surgery.
During your consultation, we will determine whether PDO threads are the right option for you or whether another treatment, such as filler, RF microneedling, CO2 laser resurfacing, or a combination approach, may better support your goals.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT TREATMENT
PDO Threads vs. Dermal Filler
PDO threads and dermal fillers are both used for facial rejuvenation, but they work in different ways. Fillers are used to restore volume, enhance contour, and support facial balance. PDO threads are used to support mild tissue laxity, create subtle lift, and stimulate collagen production.
For many clients, the best result comes from choosing the right treatment for the right concern. Some clients may benefit from PDO threads alone, while others may need filler, collagen-stimulating treatments, skin resurfacing, or a combination approach. Your provider will help guide you toward the option that best fits your anatomy and goals.
PDO Threads
Best for subtle lift, tissue support, early laxity, jawline definition, and collagen stimulation.
Dermal Filler
Best for volume restoration, facial balancing, contour enhancement, and softening areas of volume loss.
Combination Plans
Best when both laxity and volume loss are contributing to facial aging.

WHAT TO EXPECT
PDO Thread Results & Longevity
PDO threads work best for clients seeking subtle, natural-looking improvement rather than a dramatic surgical-style lift. They are most appropriate for mild to moderate laxity, early softening along the jawline, and clients who want support, contour, and collagen stimulation without an overfilled look.
Results vary based on age, skin quality, degree of laxity, treatment area, lifestyle, and your body’s collagen response. During your consultation, your provider will help determine whether PDO threads are likely to give you the type of improvement you are hoping for.
