PDO Threading: The Non-Surgical Face Lift

In today’s world of modern aesthetics, looking youthful and refreshed no longer requires going under the knife. One standout solution gaining popularity is PDO threading. This minimally invasive treatment lifts and tightens sagging skin using dissolvable threads that trigger natural collagen production.

At Chrome Aesthetics, we provide safe, tailored solutions that align with your unique facial structure and goals. In this guide, you'll learn what PDO threading is, how it works, what to expect during the procedure, and how it fits into your larger skincare and anti-aging plan.

Step-by-Step: What to Expect from PDO Threading

Step 1: Personalized Consultation

Your PDO threading journey begins with a one-on-one consultation at Chrome Aesthetics. During this session, our provider examines your facial anatomy, discusses your concerns, and determines if PDO threading is the right approach for your goals.

This is also the stage where we explore whether PDO threading should be combined with other treatments such as Botox, dermal fillers, or PRP injections to enhance the outcome.

Step 2: Numbing and Skin Preparation

To ensure a comfortable experience, we apply a topical numbing cream or local anesthetic to the treatment area. Once the area is numb, your skin is cleansed thoroughly and marked to guide precise thread placement.

Step 3: Thread Insertion

PDO threads are inserted just beneath the skin using a very fine needle or cannula. These threads act as a support structure to lift and reposition sagging tissue.

You may feel slight pressure or movement under the skin, but the treatment is generally well-tolerated thanks to the numbing.

Step 4: Immediate Lift and Long-Term Collagen Boost

As soon as the threads are in place, they provide an immediate lifting effect. Over the next few months, your body begins producing new collagen around the threads, which tightens and firms the skin naturally. The threads gradually dissolve over time, but the collagen benefits last much longer.

Additional Tips for Best Results

• Combine with Complementary Treatments
  Many of our clients combine PDO threading with Botox to smooth dynamic lines or dermal fillers to restore volume. Microneedling and skin resurfacing lasers can also help improve tone and texture, creating a complete rejuvenation plan.

• Follow Pre- and Post-Care Instructions
  Avoid alcohol, blood-thinning medications, and intense exercise for 24 to 48 hours before and after your appointment. After the procedure, try to keep your head elevated and avoid rubbing or sleeping directly on your face.

• Be Patient with the Process
  While the lift is visible right away, your final results appear gradually over the next two to three months as collagen production increases. Staying consistent with your skincare routine during this time supports better outcomes.

• Choose a Skilled Provider
  PDO threading is technique-sensitive. Choosing a qualified provider ensures the threads are placed correctly and safely. At Chrome Aesthetics, our experienced team is trained to deliver natural-looking, balanced results that complement your unique features.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Skipping the consultation: A thorough evaluation ensures the treatment matches your needs. If you have very thin skin or severe sagging, we may recommend another option.

• Expecting instant perfection: While you’ll see improvement right away, optimal results take time as collagen develops.

• Selecting an inexperienced provider: Proper placement and depth are critical. A trained aesthetic professional ensures safety and symmetry.
