Lift and rejuvenate your appearance with a PDO thread lift at Genesis Lifestyle Medicine in Glendale, AZ. This non-surgical treatment tightens and lifts sagging skin, reduces fine lines, and restores youthful contours on the face, neck, and jawline for a refreshed look.

Lift and tighten sagging skin

A PDO thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that uses absorbable polydioxanone (PDO) threads to lift and tighten sagging skin. The threads are carefully inserted beneath the skin, where they create an instant lift while stimulating collagen production for long-lasting rejuvenation. This treatment targets areas prone to aging, such as the face, neck, and jawline, to restore natural contours and smooth fine lines. PDO thread lifts offer a subtle yet effective solution for those seeking a refreshed, youthful appearance without downtime.

PDO thread lift treats:

  • Sagging skin on the face, neck, and jawline
  • Drooping eyebrows and eyelids
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
  • Marionette lines (lines from the corners of the mouth to the chin)
  • Jowls and loss of definition in the jawline
  • Mild skin laxity on cheeks and mid-face

How does PDO thread lift work?

PDO thread lift uses polydioxanone (PDO) threads, a biocompatible material that’s safely absorbed by the body, to lift and support sagging skin. During the procedure, these threads are inserted into the subdermal layer of the skin using fine needles. Once positioned, they create an immediate lift and stimulate a natural healing response, which increases collagen production around the threads. Over time, the threads dissolve, leaving behind a framework of newly formed collagen that tightens and rejuvenates the skin.

Benefits of PDO thread lift:

  • Minimally invasive with minimal downtime
  • Immediate lifting and firming effects
  • Stimulates collagen production for lasting results
  • Safe, absorbable threads with a low risk of complications
  • Customizable for specific facial areas and contouring needs
  • Natural-looking results that enhance facial definition
  • Ideal for those seeking a non-surgical alternative to a facelift
  • Quick procedure, often completed in under an hour
  • Long-lasting results, typically 12-18 months

Your PDO thread lift session

During your PDO thread lift, a trained specialist will start by numbing the treatment area. Using a fine needle or cannula, they carefully insert PDO threads beneath the skin’s surface. The threads anchor into the skin, creating an instant lift and stimulating collagen production. This takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the areas treated. After placement, the threads dissolve naturally over time, leaving behind a firm, youthful structure of newly produced collagen.

What is the recovery process like?

After your PDO thread lift, you may experience mild swelling, bruising, or soreness in the treated area, which typically subsides within a few days. Recovery is quick, with most people resuming normal activities within 24-48 hours. To ensure optimal results, avoid strenuous exercise, excessive facial movements, and sleeping on your face for a week. Cold compresses can help reduce swelling, and your specialist may recommend gentle skincare products.

When will I see the results? How long do they last?

You’ll notice an immediate lift after your PDO thread lift, with gradual improvements as collagen production increases over the next few months. The full results typically appear within 2-3 months, giving your skin a firmer, rejuvenated look. The results can last between 12-18 months, depending on age, skin type, and lifestyle. Many people opt for annual maintenance treatments to preserve their refreshed appearance over time.
