What Is a PDO Thread Lift & How Long Do Results Last?

If you've been noticing sagging skin, loss of facial definition, or the early signs of jowls — but you're not ready for surgery — a PDO Thread Lift might be exactly what you've been looking for.

At Premier Solutions & Weight Loss in Lakeland, FL, we're proud to now offer PDO Thread Lift treatments as part of our expanding aesthetics menu. Here's everything you need to know.

What Is a PDO Thread Lift?

A PDO (Polydioxanone) Thread Lift is a minimally invasive, non-surgical facelift that uses dissolvable sutures to lift and tighten sagging skin. The threads are inserted beneath the skin using a fine needle, then gently pulled to reposition and lift the targeted area.

Beyond the immediate lift, PDO threads also stimulate your body's natural collagen production — meaning your results actually continue to improve over the weeks following your treatment.

What Areas Can Be Treated?

• Cheeks and mid-face
• Jawline and jowls
• Brow and forehead lift
• Neck and décolletage
• Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
• Under-eye area

What Happens During the Procedure?

The treatment is performed in-office and typically takes 45–60 minutes. Here's what to expect:

1. Consultation: Our provider assesses your facial structure and discusses your goals
2. Numbing: A topical or local anesthetic is applied for your comfort
3. Thread insertion: Fine needles place the PDO threads precisely under the skin
4. Lift & secure: Threads are gently tensioned to achieve the desired lift
5. Recovery: Minimal downtime — most patients return to normal activities within 24–48 hours

How Long Do PDO Thread Lift Results Last?

This is the question everyone asks — and the answer is impressive:

• ✅ Immediate lift visible right after treatment
• ✅ Collagen stimulation continues improving results over 2–3 months
• ✅ Threads dissolve naturally within 4–6 months
• ✅ Results last 12–18 months on average — sometimes longer with maintenance treatments

Because the threads trigger new collagen formation, the skin continues to look firmer and more youthful even after the threads have fully dissolved.

Am I a Good Candidate?

PDO Thread Lifts are ideal for men and women who:

• Are experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity
• Want a non-surgical alternative to a facelift
• Are in good general health
• Have realistic expectations about results
• Want minimal downtime

During your consultation at Premier Solutions, our aesthetics team will evaluate your skin and facial anatomy to determine if a thread lift is the right choice — or if a combination approach with other treatments like Botox, fillers, or RF Skin Tightening would give you even better results.

Our aesthetics team is highly trained in facial anatomy and thread placement techniques. We combine our PDO treatments with our full suite of medical spa services — including microneedling, RF therapy, and PRP — to create truly comprehensive rejuvenation plans tailored to your face and your goals.
