What Areas Can PDO Threads Treat?

Updated: Mar 6, 2023



One of our favorite injectable treatments here at Coco Med Spa in St. Pete is PDO Threads. Sometimes known as a “thread lift,” PDO threads are a wonderful nonsurgical solution to several of the visible signs of aging. This minimally invasive treatment promotes the growth of new collagen, helping to provide long-term results as well as immediate ones. Today we’ll discuss what areas can be treated with PDO threads and our recommendations for the best candidates.


What are PDO Threads?


PDO threads come in two forms, barbed or smooth. Each type is best suited for different areas on the face. These threads are strategically injected in specific areas to help with lifting, smoothing, texture, and skin laxity. Over time, the threads will dissolve and trigger the development of new collagen in the treated areas. Results improve over time and generally last about 12-24 months.


What Areas Do PDO Threads Treat?


PDO threads can treat a variety of areas on the face and neck. Barbed threads are generally recommended for lifting larger areas like jowls, cheeks, the neck, and brow lifts. Smooth threads better address concerns in areas like the eyes, brow creasing, lip lines, and nose.


Who is a candidate for PDO Threads?


While it is always best to consult with your nurse injector to determine eligibility for any injectable service, generally PDO Threads are a great solution for someone who wants to address skin laxity, sagging, and other visible signs of aging in a non-invasive way with regenerative results.
