PDO Max lifting threads are advanced, FDA-cleared polydioxanone (PDO) sutures designed to instantly lift and tighten sagging skin without surgery. These biodegradable threads are gently inserted beneath the skin to reposition and support facial tissues, creating a natural-looking lift in areas like the cheeks, jawline, neck, or brows. As the threads dissolve over several months, they stimulate collagen production, improving skin texture, firmness, and elasticity for long-lasting rejuvenation. PDO Max threads offer a safe, minimally invasive solution for those seeking a refreshed, youthful appearance with minimal downtime and subtle yet noticeable results.

They are made of polydioxanone (PDO), a biocompatible, absorbable material used safely in medical sutures for decades.
Results typically last 12–18 months, depending on your age, skin condition, and lifestyle. The threads themselves dissolve in about 4–6 months, but collagen stimulation prolongs the effects.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. A local anesthetic is used to numb the area, making the procedure well tolerated.
Downtime is usually minimal. Some swelling, bruising, or mild soreness may occur for a few days, but most people return to normal activities within 1–3 days.
Yes. PDO threads have an excellent safety profile. Side effects are rare but can include bruising, swelling, or temporary dimpling of the skin.
Men and women experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity who want a non-surgical facelift alternative are ideal candidates.
The number of threads depends on your unique goals and the areas treated. A personalized consultation will determine the best approach.
People who aren’t good candidates for PDO Max threads include those with significant skin laxity or very heavy sagging (who may need surgical lifting instead), individuals with active skin infections, severe acne, or uncontrolled skin conditions in the treatment area. People with bleeding disorders, autoimmune diseases affecting healing, or who are pregnant or breastfeeding should avoid PDO threads. Also, anyone with unrealistic expectations or unwillingness to follow post-procedure care instructions may not be a suitable candidate.
