PDO Threads
Looking for a vibrant and refreshed you? PDO threads are a popular alternative for patients looking to lift sagging skin on the face or neck with minimal downtime. It is one of the most effective treatments to lift loose skin without the surgery.
How does it work?
As we age, we begin to see the changes in the structural support of the face. In some patients, the loss of volume results in prominent sagging of loose skin resulting in an older looking appearance. Our PDO threads are FDA-cleared absorbable sutures used to lift this tissue and soften folds such as the nasolabial folds. Once placed, the body naturally breaks down the PDO thread while building collagen and improving texture.
Ideal candidates are those between the ages of 30-60 with good skin tone looking for a soft natural lift and a vibrant refreshed look.
The most popular treatment areas are:
- Midface lift to soften smile lines
- Jowl correction
- Jawline restoration
