FAQ
-
What are PDO threads made of?
PDO threads are made of polydioxanone, a biodegradable material safely used in surgical sutures for decades. They naturally dissolve within the body over several months.
​
-
Will I see results right away?
Yes. You'll notice an immediate lift after placement, with continued improvement as new collagen forms over the next few months.
​
-
Is a PDO thread lift permanent?
While the threads themselves dissolve, the collagen they stimulate provides lasting support. Maintenance treatments can help prolong and enhance results over time.
​
-
How is PDO different from the French Lift™?
PDO threads are absorbable and provide a temporary lift (lasting about a year). The French Lift™ uses permanent sutures for a longer-lasting structural result. Your provider will recommend the best option during your consultation.
