PDO Threads
Thread Lift (learn more)
Sagging skin is one of the most common complaints in our medspa and one of the most visible signs of aging. The PDO thread lift procedure is one of the most effective, minimally invasive ways to lift, tighten, sculpt, and contour your problem areas.
What Are PDO Threads?
PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are ultra-thin medical-grade sutures that were developed in the 1970s. Research has shown that PDO relaxes muscles and tendons while the body's natural foreign body reaction causes increased blood flow and oxygen to the treatment area, stimulating the production of new collagen in the tissues by a process called neocollagenesis. PDO threads have also been shown to stimulate Elastin and Hyaluronic Acid production. Collagen and elastin are responsible for the skin's tensile strength and elasticity, while Hyaluronic Acid adds moisture and plumpness to the skin for a more youthful appearance.
There are many brands and types of PDO threads available on the market. We use only Miracu® PDO threads, which are the only threads on the market that are FDA-cleared for both the thread and the thread delivery method. The PDO thread procedure enhances the immediate results from Botox® and Juvéderm® and stimulates collagen for visible results lasting up to 24 months.

Physics of PDO Threads
It's all about the Vectors! Threading really puts physics into action. Each client will be assessed throughout the process to make sure that each thread is placed at an angle that maximizes the lifting and collagen production.
