PDO Threads

PDO (polydioxanone) threads are minimally invasive, absorbable sutures used to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate the skin.

  • Smooth PDO Threads: These are primarily used for collagen stimulation, improving skin texture, fine lines, and overall skin quality. Smooth threads promote natural-looking rejuvenation by encouraging your body to produce new collagen in treated areas.

  • Barbed PDO Threads: Designed for lifting and contouring, barbed threads have tiny anchors that grasp the tissue, allowing for an immediate lift in areas such as the jawline, cheeks, and brows. Over time, they also stimulate collagen production, providing longer-lasting firmness and improved skin elasticity.

PDO threads are a safe, non-surgical option for facial contouring and skin rejuvenation, delivering subtle yet effective results with minimal downtime.
