What are PDOs?
PDO thread lifts are a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment designed to lift and tighten sagging skin. Using biocompatible polydioxanone threads, the procedure stimulates collagen production for a smoother, more youthful appearance. The threads are absorbed by the body over time, encouraging natural rejuvenation.
Commonly used to target areas such as the face, neck, and jawline, PDO threads provide a non-surgical alternative to traditional facelifts. The treatment is renowned for its precision, offering subtle, natural-looking results with minimal downtime. PDO thread lifts are increasingly popular for those seeking effective facial rejuvenation without the need for invasive surgery.
How Do They Work?
PDO thread lifts involve the insertion of polydioxanone (PDO) threads beneath the skin using a fine needle. These threads, made from a biocompatible material, are strategically placed to lift and tighten targeted areas. Once inserted, the threads create a subtle tension in the skin, which encourages collagen production.
Over time, the PDO threads are naturally absorbed by the body, leaving behind firmer, rejuvenated skin. The procedure is minimally invasive, performed under local anaesthesia, and is designed to offer a non-surgical solution for those looking to address signs of ageing without the need for more invasive procedures.
Key Benefits
PDO thread lifts offer several key benefits:
- Non-Surgical Solution: Achieve a lifted appearance without the need for invasive surgery
- Collagen Stimulation: The threads encourage the natural production of collagen, improving skin texture and firmness
- Subtle, Natural Results: The treatment provides a more youthful look without a “tight” appearance
- Minimal Downtime: Recovery is quick, allowing you to return to normal activities sooner
- Versatile Treatment Areas: Can be used on the face, neck, and jawline for targeted lifting
- Biocompatible Material: The PDO threads are safely absorbed by the body, leaving no permanent traces
Duration & Sessions
PDO thread lift sessions typically last between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. During the procedure, fine PDO threads are carefully inserted into the skin using a needle, with minimal discomfort due to local anaesthesia. Most clients require just one session to achieve desired results, though additional sessions may be recommended depending on the extent of treatment and the individual’s goals
As the procedure is minimally invasive, there is no extended recovery time required, allowing clients to resume their normal activities relatively quickly after treatment. The effects continue to improve as collagen production is stimulated over time.
Who Are They Suitable for?
Thread lifts are suitable for individuals seeking a non-surgical solution to address sagging skin and signs of ageing. Ideal candidates are those with mild to moderate skin laxity who wish to improve facial contours, such as around the jawline, neck, and cheeks. The treatment is particularly effective for individuals looking for subtle yet noticeable lifting without the need for invasive surgery.
PDO thread lifts are also a great option for those who prefer minimal downtime and wish to stimulate natural collagen production for long-term rejuvenation. A consultation with a qualified practitioner will help determine suitability based on specific needs.
Results & Recovery
PDO thread lifts deliver gradual, natural-looking results as the threads stimulate collagen production, leading to firmer, smoother skin. While the PDO threads dissolve over six to twelve months, the effects can last up to two years, depending on factors such as age and skin type.
Recovery is relatively quick, with most patients able to return to their daily activities within 24 to 48 hours. Some temporary swelling, bruising, or mild discomfort may occur, but these side effects typically resolve within a few days. It’s important to follow aftercare guidelines to ensure optimal healing and maintain the best possible outcome.

Testimonial
“I’ll admit, I was a little nervous about getting PDO mono threads. The idea of threads under my skin sounded uncomfortable, and I was worried it might hurt more than I could handle. But to my surprise, the treatment was nowhere near as uncomfortable as I imagined. It was quick, and the sensation was more odd than painful. A few weeks later, I started noticing changes my skin looked firmer, smoother, and just... fresher. Friends kept saying I looked “really well” or asked if I’d changed my skincare routine. I love that the results are subtle but noticeable and completely natural-looking. I’m so glad I didn’t let fear stop me. This treatment gave me a boost of confidence without the need for anything drastic. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants a gentle refresh!”

Frequently Asked Questions
If you’d like to learn more about our PDO thread lift treatments, we’ve answered some common questions below:
PDO thread lifts are minimally invasive and typically cause only mild discomfort. A local anaesthetic is applied before the procedure to numb the treatment area, ensuring a comfortable experience. Any post-procedure discomfort is usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relief and should subside within a few days.
As with any treatment, PDO thread lifts may cause some temporary side effects, including mild swelling, bruising, or redness at the insertion sites. These side effects typically resolve within a few days. In rare cases, patients may experience minor tenderness or tightness in the treated areas.
The results of PDO thread lifts can last up to two years, depending on individual factors such as skin type, age, and lifestyle. The PDO threads gradually dissolve over six to twelve months, but the collagen stimulation continues to improve skin texture and firmness long after the threads are absorbed.
Before your PDO thread lift, avoid taking blood-thinning medications or alcohol for at least 48 hours. After the treatment, follow your practitioner’s aftercare instructions, which may include avoiding strenuous exercise, applying makeup, or touching the treated area for a few days to ensure optimal results and healing.
PDO thread lifts are a safe and effective treatment when performed by a qualified, licensed practitioner.
