PDO Thread Lift - An Overview
PDO thread lifts are a safe and highly effective alternative to traditional surgical lifts. They are FDA-cleared to tighten and reposition sagging skin using dissolvable polydioxanone threads. When placed in the subcutaneous layer of the skin using tiny needles, PDO threads provide an instant, noticeable lift, with tighter, plumper, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
How does a thread lift work?
PDO thread lifts work by mechanically lifting the skin and pulling it taut, tightening sagging skin, smoothing away fine lines and wrinkles, and delivering a more sculpted, defined appearance. The revolutionary treatment also contracts fat tissue, resulting in instant tightening, and promotes collagen production, renewing your skin at the cellular level. Collagen production will continue after the skin absorbs the PDO threads, delivering ongoing, long-lasting results.
What is the procedure?
PDO thread lifts are quick, taking 15-30 minutes to complete. The minimally invasive procedure requires little to no downtime, so you can get back to your daily plans without interruption. PDO thread lifts treat most facial and body areas, including the brows, midface, jawline, jowls, neck, upper arms, abdominal area, buttocks, thighs, and more. Wherever you see loose or sagging skin, a PDO thread lift may be the perfect solution for you!
Why we use
SIlhouette InstaLift
Silhouette InstaLift offers an incredibly effective anti-aging solution with long-lasting results. It is the only non-surgical skin rejuvenating procedure that utilizes advanced Micro-Suspension Technology to lift and add volume to the midfacial region with immediate and long-lasting results.
The InstaLift facelift involves the use of absorbable micro-cones to instantly lift aging skin in the mid-face, including sagging cheeks and deep nasolabial folds, also known as smile lines. The body naturally absorbs the micro-cones and sutures, but not before activating collagen production, which helps boost volume for up to two years.
The Silhouette InstaLift procedure is quick, taking less than an hour to complete. It requires minimal downtime, meaning that you can resume daily activities soon after. You may notice temporary side effects, including mild bruising, tenderness, and swelling in the treatment areas, but these should resolve within 24-48 hours. We’ll provide you with post-treatment instructions and an aftercare program to ensure the best possible results.
Real Patients. Real Results.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a thread lift?
A thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that lifts and tightens sagging skin using dissolvable threads. It stimulates collagen production for a more youthful, refreshed look without surgery. Performed by a board-certified provider, it offers subtle but natural results with minimal downtime.
How long does a thread lift last?
Thread lifts typically last 12–18 months, depending on the type of threads used and individual aging factors. Touch-ups can extend results, and combining with collagen-stimulating treatments can help maintain the effect longer. Learn more about our collagen-building treatments here.
Is a thread lift safe?
Yes, thread lifts are FDA-cleared and considered safe when performed by an experienced, board-certified provider. Most patients experience mild swelling or bruising that resolves in a few days. Your provider will discuss all safety precautions during your consultation.
Does a thread lift hurt?
Most patients report mild discomfort, similar to a pinching or pulling sensation. Local anesthesia or numbing cream is used to ensure comfort during the procedure. Pain is generally short-lived and manageable.
What is the recovery time after a thread lift?
Recovery is usually minimal, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few days. You may experience mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness for 1–2 weeks. Avoid strenuous activity and facial massages during this period for optimal results.
Who is a good candidate for a thread lift?
Ideal candidates are adults experiencing mild to moderate sagging of the face or neck who want subtle lifting without surgery. Thread lifts are less effective for severe sagging or heavy skin laxity. A board-certified provider can help determine if it’s the right treatment for you.
How do thread lifts compare to a surgical facelift?
Thread lifts are less invasive, with shorter recovery and lower cost than a traditional facelift. Results are more subtle and natural, whereas surgical facelifts offer dramatic, long-lasting changes. Thread lifts are a great option for those not ready for surgery.
Can I combine a thread lift with other treatments?
Yes! Many patients enhance results by combining thread lifts with radiofrequency microneedling, Botox, or dermal fillers. These combinations improve skin texture, firmness, and facial contouring for a more comprehensive rejuvenation. Learn more about our facial treatments here.
When will I see results from a thread lift?
Some lifting is noticeable immediately, but full results appear over 2–6 weeks as swelling subsides and collagen forms around the threads. Results continue to improve over several months for a natural, long-lasting effect.
Are there any side effects of thread lifts?
Common side effects include mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the thread insertion points. Serious complications are rare when performed by a qualified, board-certified provider. Your provider will review all risks during your consultation.
