What Are PDO Threads?
PDO (polydioxanone) threads are absorbable sutures inserted beneath the skin to lift sagging and stimulate collagen production. Over time, they naturally dissolve, leaving behind tighter, firmer skin. Common areas treated with PDO threads include the cheeks, jawline, brows, and neck. The result is a subtle, natural lift without invasive surgery.
Key Benefits of PDO Threads:
- Immediate lift with gradual collagen production
- Natural-looking results that improve over time
- Long-lasting effects, typically 12-18 months
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers, usually made with hyaluronic acid or other volumizing substances, are injected to plump up areas with volume loss, smooth fine lines, and enhance facial contours. They’re ideal for filling nasolabial folds, plumping lips, and adding volume to the cheeks. Unlike PDO threads, fillers don’t lift tissue but restore lost volume.
Key Benefits of Dermal Fillers:
- Immediate plumping and contouring
- Customizable to specific facial areas
- Results last 6-18 months, depending on the filler type

- Prefer a minimally invasive alternative to surgery.
