PDO Threads: Reverse Signs of Aging

Getting older happens, and that’s a great thing! As we age though we’ll start to notice more lines and wrinkles as well as skin beginning to droop or sag because of loss of collagen and elastin. While you may be unable to turn back the hands of time, you can restore and rejuvenate your appearance and confidence. At SkinMD, we offer PDO Threads, a popular, non-surgical aesthetic treatment that effectively stimulates collagen production while naturally tightening and rejuvenating the skin without the cost or downtime associated with surgical facelifts or other invasive procedures.

How Do PDO Threads Work?

PDO threads are medical-grade, absorbable sutures made from a safe, biocompatible material, polydioxanone. Once inserted under the skin, it will lift and tighten loose skin while absorbed into the body, stimulating collagen and improving skin texture, firmness, fine lines, and wrinkles on the face, neck, and body for a natural, rejuvenated, and more youthful appearance.


Commonly treated areas and benefits:

  • Cheeks: Lifts sagging cheeks and restores volume to the midface.
  • Jawline: Improves the definition of the jawline and reduces the appearance of jowls.
  • Neck: Lifts and tightens sagging skin on the neck and reduces the appearance of wrinkles.
  • Vermilion Border: Defines the border around the lips for a more youthful and symmetrical appearance.
  • Nose: Lifts the tip of the nose and reduces the appearance of nasal folds.

Additional Benefits:

  • Minimal downtime: Allows individuals to rejuvenate their appearance without surgery and return to their routine.
  • Natural-looking results: Uses the body's natural processes to stimulate and enhance collagen production.
  • Versatility: Can treat various areas of the face, neck, and body while paired with other Skin MD procedures such as injectables (Botox, Kybella, Dermal Filler) and skin treatments (facials and microneedling), providing enhanced results. 

How Long Does the Treatment Last?

The results are immediate! The threads will dissolve within six to nine months, while the collagen stimulation produced will allow the lift to remain in place for up to 18 months. Follow-up treatments are available once the effects start diminishing, which can help to maintain the results over time.

With a range of benefits, customizable treatment options, and the ability to treat various areas of the face, neck, and body, PDO Threads can help rejuvenate your appearance and confidence!
