A PDO Thread Lift is a minimally-invasive treatment that tightens and volumizes skin on your neck, face, and brow. This procedure stimulates collagen production while improving sagging skin.
This procedure is ideal for patients with drooping skin and mild to moderate laxity who want a youthful-looking appearance without having to undergo full surgical facelift surgery. It also works well if you are hesitant about having full surgical facelift done at once.
It’s Non-Invasive
If you’re searching for a more youthful facelift without surgery, PDO Thread Lift is an ideal solution. It’s minimally invasive and offers noticeable results that last up to 8 months or longer.
Our team will begin by conducting a comprehensive examination of your skin and facial anatomy. Your doctor will discuss your goals with you and help decide if you are an appropriate candidate for the procedure.
After applying a local anesthetic, your doctor will insert a small needle into the area to be treated. A smooth-tipped microcannula will then be inserted through this hole to place barbed PDO threads beneath your skin which Dr. Lum will use to reposition your skin and create the lift effect desired.
Once the threads are in place, your body can begin to heal them. As polydioxanone (PDO) absorbs into your bloodstream, it creates new collagen to support and lift tissue – which explains why this technique provides longer-lasting results than many other tightening procedures.
After your treatment, you should expect minor swelling and bruising; however, these will subside within 24 hours. Your doctor will prescribe medication to ease any discomfort you may feel after the procedure; additionally, avoid alcohol and caffeine for 24 hours afterwards.
PDO Thread Lift differs from traditional facelifts in that there are no stitches required after the procedure, making recovery less invasive and allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately after.
PDO thread lifts are an effective solution for lifting and tightening skin on areas such as the face, neck and jawline. Not only that, but they’re also great at treating sagging skin on stomach and arms as well as cellulite.
These threads are made from polydioxanone, a non-allergenic and biodegradable material commonly used in medical procedures requiring absorbable sutures. Now it’s being revolutionized into an innovative aesthetic technology.
PDO Thread Lifts are an affordable and safe alternative to facelifts that can be performed in the office setting with little or no downtime. This treatment helps reverse sagging skin while diminishing the look of fine lines and creases. Furthermore, this procedure is safe and affordable – making it the perfect choice for those wanting to improve their appearance without surgery.
It’s Fast
PDO thread lifts are an affordable and straightforward aesthetic treatment that offers long-lasting results. They can be used to tighten and lift areas such as the lower face, neck, brows, cheeks or any area in need of some TLC.
PDO threads can also be used to improve your skin’s tone and texture, as well as fight signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles. This is because they are inserted beneath your skin, stimulating collagen production that helps restructure and smooth treated areas.
Another advantage of a PDO thread lift is its relatively painless nature, as there’s no invasive surgery or other serious procedures involved. The only discomfort patients may feel are from numbing agents injected before the procedure begins.
Once the numbing agent has taken effect, your physician will insert PDO threads into your skin using a cannula device. Depending on which threads they use, there may be some mild discomfort as they become embedded in place.
After threads are embedded into your skin, it takes around one month for them to fully dissolve and give you their full effect. In the meantime, you may experience some swelling and bruising; however, these should subside within a few days after the procedure.
Once the threads have fully dissolving, you can expect your skin to start producing even more collagen in the treatment area. This will further improve skin’s tone and elasticity while making you appear younger.

It’s Affordable
PDO Thread Lift is a non-invasive alternative to surgical face lifts that provides patients with the opportunity to reverse signs of aging and maintain their youthful look without the risks or downtime associated with traditional facelifts.
This non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure is designed to tighten and lift skin on the face and neck as well as other body parts like knees or arms. It can help restore a youthful appearance by diminishing wrinkles and creases while adding volume to hollow areas of the face.
PDO thread lifts offer long-lasting results, as the polydioxanone infusions trigger your body’s natural healing response and promote collagen production to fill in any creases or gaps that exist on sagging skin.
During the procedure, your provider will use a blunt-tipped needle to insert an FDA-approved, biodegradable PDO (polydioxanone) synthetic suture into the middle layer of skin parallel to its surface. After removal of the needle, they’ll use a microneedling device to gently massage in and stimulate healing within the treated area.
Once your skin has healed, the threads will dissolve and new collagen will take its place in the treated area. Over time, this collagen will firm and tighten your skin for a refreshed, rejuvenated appearance.
PDO thread lifts are an incredibly versatile treatment option, capable of treating various issues such as sagging or loose skin on the lower face, neck, jawline, brows, and cheeks. After your consultation with us, we can create a tailored treatment plan tailored to your goals and concerns.
With PDO threads and rejuvenating injectables, your practitioner can offer a comprehensive anti-aging treatment that addresses sagging skin and minimizes wrinkles. Results from a Thread Lift typically last anywhere from 12-18 months depending on the area treated and patient desired outcomes.
PDO thread lifts are a safe and effective non-surgical procedure. While some patients experience some swelling or bruising for the first few days after the procedure, these effects typically subside over time.
It’s Effective
PDO Thread Lift is an effective anti-aging treatment that can address skin laxity, fine lines, and wrinkles. Additionally, it increases collagen production and hyaluronic acid levels – two essential ingredients for youthful skin.
It can be used on many parts of the face and body, including eyebrows, cheeks (midface), jowls, and neck. Furthermore, it may be performed on upper arms, stomach, and thighs to lift loose skin around these areas.
One treatment appointment typically provides desired results, though patients should expect to receive upkeep treatments every six months or as needed to maintain their new look. This is because threads break down in approximately six months and it also encourages the skin to heal itself by producing new collagen.
In just an hour, this minimally invasive procedure takes no incisions and leaves you looking naturally young again. Simply mark and numb the area before inserting a thread into the skin to pull back any loose tissue. With little to no downtime afterwards, this safe procedure has few risks and no side effects – leaving you looking younger again!
Furthermore, a PDO Thread Lift is more cost-effective and convenient than traditional facelifts which can run up to thousands of dollars. Plus, it’s tailored specifically to your individual needs and desired outcomes so there’s no need to settle for something generic.
As with many cosmetic treatments, a PDO thread lift is best suited for those who want to take an early preventive approach to aging and get ahead of any visible sagging or wrinkled skin issues. It’s suitable for both women and men of any age who desire immediate improvements in their skin’s appearance.
Those considering the treatment should book a consultation with Dr Marotta to assess if they are suitable candidates. This will determine how many sessions are necessary and what preparation steps need to be taken before and after each one.
Before the PDO Thread Lift procedure, your skin will be disinfected with alcohol and numbing agent before being injected with local anesthetic to reduce discomfort. You can return home immediately after the procedure, though you may experience some swelling and redness. For added pain relief, apply ice to the treated areas for additional comfort.
