PDO Soft Thread
A PDO Soft Thread Lift is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to provide a subtle lift and skin rejuvenation without adding excessive volume. These dissolvable threads are carefully placed under the skin to stimulate collagen production, improve skin elasticity, and enhance facial contours. Unlike traditional lifting threads, soft threads focus on refining skin texture and firmness rather than creating a dramatic lift.

Who Can Benefit?
PDO Soft Threads are ideal for individuals looking for subtle yet effective skin rejuvenation. They are perfect for treating fine lines, mild sagging, and skin laxity in areas like the cheeks, jawline, neck, and under-eye area. This treatment is excellent for those seeking a refreshed, youthful appearance without the need for surgery.
Benefits:
- Enhances skin texture and elasticity
- Stimulates natural collagen production
- Minimally invasive with little to no downtime
- Improves fine lines and mild sagging
What to Expect?
The procedure takes 30-45 minutes and is performed under local anesthesia to ensure comfort. The soft threads are carefully inserted under the skin using fine needles or cannulas. Mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness may occur, but most patients can return to daily activities within 24-48 hours.
Over the next few weeks to months, collagen production increases, improving skin texture and firmness. Results are natural-looking and long-lasting, typically lasting up to 12 months as the threads dissolve, leaving behind smoother, firmer skin.
Before, During & After
What to Expect
The first step is your free consultation.
Before Treatment
Prior to your PDO Soft Thread Lift, it’s important to avoid alcohol, blood-thinning medications, and supplements such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and vitamin E for at least a week to minimize the risk of bruising. Stay well-hydrated and avoid smoking, as it can affect collagen production and healing. A consultation with your provider will help determine the best approach for your skin concerns.
During Treatment
The procedure takes about 30-45 minutes and is performed under local anesthesia for comfort. Using a fine needle or cannula, the soft PDO threads are carefully inserted under the skin in targeted areas. You may feel slight pressure or a pulling sensation, but discomfort is minimal. The threads immediately begin stimulating collagen production, improving skin texture and elasticity over time.
After Treatment
Mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness is normal and typically resolves within a few days. Avoid excessive facial movements, strenuous exercise, and direct sun exposure for at least 48 hours. Refrain from rubbing or massaging the treated area for about a week to allow the threads to settle properly. Over the next several weeks to months, the skin will become firmer and smoother as collagen continues to build, with results lasting up to 12 months.
