What is PDO threading?

At The Well MD, we believe beauty should enhance — not overpower — your natural features. PDO threading, often called a “thread lift,” is a minimally invasive aesthetic treatment that tightens, lifts, and rejuvenates sagging skin. It uses Polydioxanone (PDO) threads — safe, absorbable, medical-grade sutures that are gently placed beneath the skin to provide instant lift.

But the true transformation happens gradually. As the threads dissolve, they stimulate your body's natural collagen production, leading to firmer, smoother, more youthful-looking skin over time.

This makes PDO threading a beautiful blend of immediate results and long-term skin improvement.

Why Patients Love It

Noticeable yet natural results

More people are choosing PDO threading because it delivers noticeable yet natural results — without the commitment or downtime of surgery.

Instant Lift

PDO threads create immediate structure and support, lifting loose or sagging areas right away.

Collagen Boost

Over the following months, the threads stimulate fresh collagen, improving elasticity, firmness, and overall skin quality.

Minimally Invasive

No incisions, no general anesthesia, and minimal downtime. Most patients resume daily activities within 24 hours.

Long-Lasting Results

A lifted, tighter appearance can last 12–18 months as collagen continues to strengthen the skin.

Versatile Treatment Areas

Contour and lift the jawline, cheeks, nasolabial folds, neck, brows — even the abdomen or knees for skin tightening.

It's a customizable treatment that enhances your natural beauty — not changes it.

Is PDO threading right for you?

PDO threading may be an excellent fit if you want to:

  • Lift sagging or loose skin
