PDO Thread Lift

PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are a non-surgical aesthetic treatment designed to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate the skin. Often referred to as a “thread lift” or “non-surgical facelift,” this treatment uses medical-grade, dissolvable sutures placed beneath the skin to restore a more youthful, lifted appearance.

PDO Thread Lift (Dissolvable Thread Lift)

What Do PDO Threads Do?

PDO threads work in two key ways:

  1. Instant lifting effect
    Once placed under the skin, the threads provide structural support and reposition sagging tissue for an immediate, subtle lift.
  2. Long-term skin rejuvenation
    As the threads dissolve, they stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, improving skin firmness, elasticity, and texture over time. This dual action makes PDO threads ideal for patients wanting natural-looking results without surgery.

Types of PDO Threads

Mono Threads (Skin Rejuvenation)

  • Smooth threads with no barbs
  • Improve skin quality, firmness, and fine lines 
  • Ideal for delicate areas such as under-eyes, cheeks, and neck

Cog Threads (Lifting Threads)

  • Contain tiny barbs (“cogs”) that anchor into the tissue
  • Provide a more noticeable lifting and contouring effect
  • Commonly used for jawline, jowls, and mid-face lifting

Benefits of PDO Thread Lifts

  • Improves skin texture and tone
  • Deeply hydrates and revitalises the skin
  • Stimulates collagen and elastin production
  • Reduces fine lines and crepey skin
  • Strengthens and repairs damaged skin
  • Suitable for delicate areas including under-eyes
  • Promotes long-term skin regeneration

How it Works

1. Consultation & Assessment
We begin with a detailed consultation to assess your skin, areas of concern, and desired outcome. Your practitioner will determine whether PDO threads are suitable and create a personalised treatment plan based on the level of lift and rejuvenation needed.
2. Preparation & Numbing

The treatment area is cleansed and a local anaesthetic is applied to ensure maximum comfort. This allows the procedure to be virtually pain-free while preparing the skin for precise thread placement.

3. Precise Thread Placement

PDO threads are carefully inserted beneath the skin using fine needles or cannulas.
Depending on your treatment plan:

  • Mono threads improve skin quality and stimulate collagen
  • Cog threads lift and reposition sagging tissue

You’ll see an instant lifting effect, with continued improvement as collagen production increases over time.

4. Post Treatment Care & Results

After your treatment, you may experience mild swelling or bruising, which typically settles within a few days.

  • Immediate subtle lift
  • Gradual skin tightening and rejuvenation
  • Results continue improving over weeks

Threads dissolve naturally over time, while results can last 12 to 18 months.

Quick answers to questions you may have

PDO thread lifts are a less invasive option compared to surgery, with quicker recovery and lower risk when performed by a trained professional.

How Long Do Results Last?

While the threads themselves dissolve over approximately 4–6 months, the collagen stimulation continues, meaning results can last **12–18 months** depending on the individual and treatment area.

What to Expect?
  • Treatment time: approximately 30–60 minutes
  • Performed under local anaesthetic
  • Minimal downtime (most clients return to normal activities within a few days)
  • Mild swelling or bruising may occur
