The Best Areas That PDO Threads Can Treat

As we age, our skin gradually loses its firmness and elasticity, this is because our collagen and elastin start to break down and diminish. It’s a natural part of aging, even though we might not like it! Fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin become more pronounced, and we start to notice that our once youthful appearance is no more. 


This is where  PDO (polydioxanone) threads from Source Medical Aesthetics can help. In a nut-shell, a PDO Thread treatment is a non-surgical solution that lifts and tightens the skin, promoting collagen production for lasting effects. 


At Source Medical Aesthetics we are experts at this treatment and have been able to restore a naturally youthful appearance to all our PDO Thread patients.

What Are PDO Threads?


PDO threads are thin, dissolvable sutures made from polydioxanone—a biocompatible material commonly used in surgery. These threads are placed beneath the skin to lift and reposition tissue. Here are two types of PDO threads commonly used:


Smooth PDO Threads:

  • These ultra-thin threads are loaded into acupuncture-sized needles (cannulas) and placed under the skin surface.
  • They reinforce skin integrity, stimulate collagen production, and improve surface texture.
  • The thread will naturally absorb over the next several months. As it does it will promote the production of collagen, keeping the skin tight and in place for longer lasting results.


Barbed Threads:

  • Designed for repositioning and lifting sagging skin, these threads are self-anchoring (barbed).
  • The texture on the thread’s surface is what secures the lift in place immediately after the treatment. 
  • Results are immediate and can last up to 2 years.
