PDO Overview
Polydioxanone, a modern sutural material is used to produce PDO lifting threads. This material is normally used by surgeons for sewing together soft tissues. It diffuses inside the tissues within 180-210 days, does not cause any allergic reactions, and is not toxic.
Polydioxanone has high-tensile strength. During the diffusion it stimulates formation of fibrous connective tissue.

WHAT IS A PDO THREAD LIFT?
A PDO thread lift is a non-surgical procedure that aims to lift and tighten facial skin using Polydioxanone (PDO) threads. These threads are inserted and secured into various layers of the skin using needles, resulting in an immediate lifting and tightening effect on sagging skin. The number of threads used per section can range from 1 to 15, depending on the specific needs of the patient.
There are three primary types of PDO threads: mono, cog, and screw threads. Each type serves a slightly different purpose and provides different treatment outcomes. For most patients seeking skin tightening and rejuvenation, mono threads are typically sufficient. Prior to the procedure, the skin is numbed to ensure minimal discomfort during the treatment.
HOW LONG DOES A PDO THREAD LIFT LAST?
Usually, the PDO threads used in a thread lift will dissolve within approximately six months. However, the positive effects of the treatment can last significantly longer, typically between 12 to 24 months for most patients. This prolonged duration is attributed to the increased production of collagen in the treated area. Additionally, if desired, additional treatments can be performed to further extend and maintain the results achieved from the initial PDO thread lift.
WHAT ARE MONO THREADS?
Mono threads do not have any barbs. They are smooth threads mainly employed for their ability to produce collagen and add volume to the skin. While mono threads can also effectively lift and tighten the skin, they are primarily used as a rejuvenating treatment to thicken the skin and improve its texture irregularities.

WHAT AREAS DO MONO THREADS TREAT MOST EFFECTIVELY?
Typically, mono threads are commonly used in the mid-face, lips, and neck to create volume, smooth out tissue (such as in the nasolabial folds), and enhance the texture of the skin. Mono threads also prove to be an excellent choice for treating atrophic acne scars, specifically depressed scarring rather than raised. Additionally, we find mono threads highly beneficial in achieving a beautifully smooth appearance in the neck area.
IS A MONO THREAD LIFT SUITABLE FOR ME?
Determining whether mono threads are the right choice for your thread lift treatment depends on your specific goals. If your primary objective is skin lift and tightening, then the use of a barbed thread may be more effective.
However, if you aim to smooth out the skin, specifically targeting fine lines, wrinkles, and textural irregularities, while also seeking a volume boost, then mono threads are the ideal choice.
Ultimately, discussing and assessing your skin with a qualified provider will help you decide which type of thread will yield the best results for you.
DO PDO MONO THREADS WORK ON THE NECK?
PDO mono thread treatments are not limited to the face alone. They can also be used for neck treatments. PDO mono threads for the neck can effectively address creasing and folding around the chin and neck area. Although these concerns may not be as visibly noticeable as others, a neck mono thread treatment can specifically target challenging areas such as marionette lines, sagging cheeks, and an aging jawline. In the case of neck treatments, it may take up to 12 months for the body to fully dissolve the threads. However, the duration can also be influenced by how quickly your skin breaks down temporary sutures.
DO PDO MONO THREADS WORK UNDER THE EYES?
Absolutely! PDO mono threads can indeed offer a more natural alternative to traditional eyelifts. For those seeking a less invasive approach to achieve a rejuvenated look, this procedure involves the insertion of threads near the undereye and eyebrows to lift and tighten the skin. Additionally, it can effectively lift the eyes, cheeks, address loose jowls, tighten the neck, and reduce wrinkles around the eyes. Results from the treatment are typically visible within 1-2 months and can last for up to two years.
CAN PDO MONO THREADS HELP NASOLABIAL FOLDS?
Nasolabial folds are commonly referred to as smile lines that develop around the mouth. These lines typically appear as a result of age and repetitive muscle movements. PDO mono threads nasolabial treatments work to even out the skin volume, revitalize collagen production, and produce a long-term skin rejuvenation. These treatments play a crucial role in preventing sagging chin skin, reducing the appearance of nasolabial lines, and minimizing vertical or horizontal forehead wrinkles.
