Looking for a way to lift and tighten your face without surgery? PDO thread lifts are one of the most effective non-surgical facelift treatments available today. At CosMed Aesthetics in Tigard, OR, we use advanced PDO thread techniques to provide natural, youthful results — without incisions or long recovery times.
What Is a PDO Thread Lift?
A PDO (polydioxanone) thread lift is a minimally invasive treatment that uses absorbable sutures to lift sagging skin and stimulate collagen production. Over time, your body naturally dissolves the threads while continuing to build new collagen, resulting in firmer, smoother skin.
Popular treatment areas include:
-
Midface and cheeks
-
Jawline and jowls
-
Neck tightening
-
Brow lift
How PDO Threads Work
During the treatment, fine PDO threads are inserted under the skin using a thin cannula. These threads provide immediate lift and act as a “scaffold” to support new collagen growth.
Results improve over time, typically peaking around 3–6 months as collagen production increases. Most patients enjoy results lasting 12–18 months.
