PDO Threads are a state-of-the-art, minimally invasive procedure used for skin rejuvenation and lifting. Standing for Polydioxanone, PDO threads are absorbable surgical sutures that are carefully implanted into the skin, providing a lifting and smoothing effect. This innovative treatment encourages the body’s natural production of collagen and fibroblasts, promoting cellular renewal and improving skin texture and elasticity. PDO Threads can be applied to a range of areas, including the face, neck, and jawline, addressing concerns such as wrinkles, sagging skin, and fine lines.

PDO Threads offer a versatile solution for those seeking a nonsurgical approach to achieve a more youthful and revitalized appearance. Results are visible shortly after the procedure, with continued improvements over the following months as new collagen is formed. The effects of PDO Threads can last up to 18 months, varying with factors such as age, lifestyle, and skin condition. The Coral Springs Med Spa team is ready to help you explore the benefits of PDO Threads, so book your consultation today to start your journey towards a firmer, smoother complexion.

Smooth PDO Threads

They are commonly used in areas that require a gentle touch, such as under the eyes, the neck, and the forehead. The insertion of these threads is a quick, relatively painless process and results in a natural-looking enhancement.
