How do PDO smooth threads work?

  • Several threads are inserted under the skin in a hashtag pattern to ensure uniform collagen production
  • The thread will increase blood flow to the area and create new collagen and elastin production
  • The thread is then absorbed after 3-6 months leaving a new production of collagen in its place

What is a PDO Thread?

A polydioxanone (PDO) thread is made up of solid protein that is thinner than a piece of hair. Once placed under the skin it increases blood flow and stimulates elastin and collagen.

How long does it take to see the effects of PDO Lifting threads?

Results are immediate after treatment and continue to improve as thread is absorbed. PDO Lifting threads are fully absorbed after 6-12 months and leave behind a new production of collagen that gives the skin a firmer lifted appearance.
