PDO thread lift is the ideal non-surgical alternative to a traditional facelift. This procedure uses PDO (polydioxanone) threads to lift and contour your facial features, making your skin look firm, tight, and youthful. The treatment involves inserting biocompatible threads into the skin’s surface to lift the skin and fatty tissues, giving you an instant lift. The threads also stimulate collagen production to sustain the results for extended periods.
Your Treatment Options with PDO Threads
Newton Medical Aesthetics provides highly personalized treatments that address specific skin concerns and ensure natural results. We use two types of PDO threads for the procedure, lifting threads and smooth threads, depending on your goals and concerns. Our cosmetic doctors carefully assess your skin quality, discuss your goals, and curate a treatment plan designed just for you. If you’re deemed an unsuitable candidate for the procedure, they don’t shy away from saying “no.”
PDO Smooth Threads
Smooth threads have a smooth surface without barbs and contours. They’re inserted into the skin in a hashtag pattern to increase blood circulation to the treatment area. This encourages your body to increase skin cell turnover and activate collagen production, thereby reversing the signs of aging. PDO smooth threads build a foundation for collagen production, paving the way for the gradual onset of results.
PDO Lift Threads
Lifting threads are barbed or cogged sutures that “hook” into the surrounding tissues. As such, when they are strategically inserted into the skin, they gather the skin and fatty tissues to produce a lifting action. As such, you notice an instant lift — your skin looks significantly smoother, firmer, and more youthful. Over time, PDO lifting threads also encourage collagen production, thus maintaining the lift after the threads have been absorbed.

Your PDO Consultation, Treatment, and Recovery
Dr. Nily Abramovitz and Dr. Alla Agamov have nearly 10 years of experience with the latest non-surgical aesthetic treatments. During your consultation, they discuss your cosmetic concerns and goals in a relaxing environment. They also assess your skin quality and review your medical history to determine if you’re a suitable candidate for PDO threads. If you’re deemed a suitable candidate, they curate the ideal treatment plan for you.
During the treatment, your face will be cleansed and numbed with local anesthesia. Depending on the chosen treatment modality, the cosmetic doctor will insert smooth threads or lifting threads under the facial tissues in the targeted areas. This will provide an instant lift, though the degree of lift depends on the type of threads used. The treatment will conclude in 45 to 90 minutes, depending on the number of treatment areas.
PDO thread lift doesn’t involve downtime or an extended recovery period. You can resume your daily activities and work as soon as the treatment concludes, but you may experience mild redness, soreness, and swelling. The side effects subside in a day or two, and there are no scars or obvious signs of cosmetic work. The results last for 1 to 3 years, following which you can get a maintenance treatment.
