PDO Thread Lift (Polydioxanone)

If you thought the only way to lift and tighten saggy skin is with a facelift, you’d be pleasantly surprised to learn about a trendy, less-invasive procedure that has women flocking to cosmetic surgeons. And you can be in and out the door in less time than it takes to get a teeth cleaning. It’s called a “thread lift.” it’s cheaper, easier and less invasive than a facelift.

​

​

A thread lift entails placing a medical-grade dissolvable suture with little hooks beneath the skin to reposition and lift skin and/or facial fat pads. This thread is inserted through a hollow needle so there are no open wounds or scars like in surgery. The threads themselves play an integral role in its age-reversing effects. Most thread lifts are done with a type of thread known as PDO, which stands for polydioxanone. This natural protein is woven into a thin thread similar to human hair. 

The barbs on the thread help to grab ahold of skin tissue, creating tension in the thread, which pulls the skin taut and lifts the skin tissue. Collagen formation then occurs around the threads, provoking the body’s healing response and stimulating the body’s natural collagen production.

How does a Thread Lift Work?

“lunchtime lift” or “weekend facelift.” Can usually be performed in under an hour under local anesthesia, and most patients report only minor discomfort. Recovery is fairly quick, with just a few days (versus a facelift, which takes around three months), and significantly fewer risks exist. There is virtually no risk of scarring, severe bruising, bleeding or other complications after having a thread lift.

Who is a Thread Lift good for?

If you’re a middle-aged to mature woman, your skin is still relatively thick and you only have mild drooping of the cheeks and jowls, this may be for you. Candidates with very thin skin, heavy tissues or a significant amount of sagging skin might require more threads and/or more than one treatment to obtain ideal results. 

It’s also used to lift necks, saggy knees and even a droopy tummy! And it’s not just being used to reverse the signs of aging. It can even lessen the appearance of under-eye bags and provide a more contoured look to the face.

Fox Eye Thread Lift

The Fox Eye Thread Lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses dissolvable threads to lift and elongate the outer corners of the eyes, creating an almond-shaped, lifted look. Popular for achieving a more youthful, "fox eye" or "cat eye" appearance, this technique lifts the brow and eye area without the need for surgery.

How It Works:

  • Procedure: Threads are inserted under the skin in the outer eye area using a thin cannula. Once in place, the threads are gently pulled to lift the skin, which is then secured in its new position.

  • Collagen Stimulation: As the threads dissolve over time, they stimulate collagen production, further firming and lifting the area.

  • Quick Recovery: Minimal downtime, with mild swelling or bruising that subsides in a few days.

Benefits:

  • Creates a lifted, contoured eye shape without surgery.

  • Results are immediate and improve as collagen builds over 2-3 months.

  • Effects last about 6-12 months, depending on skin type and aftercare.

The Fox Eye Thread Lift is ideal for those seeking a subtle, natural lift around the eyes and brows for a more refreshed and defined look.
