PDO Smooth Threads

The Non-Surgical Facelift You've Been Waiting For

PDO smooth threads are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that can help improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed look. The treatment involves using dissolvable threads made of Polydioxanone (PDO) that are inserted into the skin, stimulating the body’s natural collagen production and creating a lifting effect.

We recommend PDO smooth threads for addressing a variety of issues such as nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and sagging skin in the cheeks, neck, and jawline. Aside from its aesthetic benefits, PDO smooth threads near me can also improve skin texture and firmness, and may help reduce the appearance of acne scars and stretch marks.

For PDO smooth thread treatments, Dr. Johnson will assess your needs and facial anatomy to provide you with the optimal cosmetic treatment including which areas to target and how much work needs to be done.
