What are PDO Threads?

The non-surgical
lift that rebuilds support from within.

PDO Threads are medical-grade, dissolvable sutures placed beneath the skin to lift and support areas affected by laxity and sagging. Once inserted, they provide an immediate mechanical lift while also stimulating collagen production as they naturally dissolve over time.

They are commonly used to improve facial contour in areas such as the jawline, cheeks, brows, neck, and fine lines around the mouth. The result is a more lifted, structured, and refreshed appearance without changing your natural expression.

PDO Threads are FDA-cleared, minimally invasive, and considered a step beyond injectables for patients looking for more structural support and visible lifting without surgery.
