PDO Threads: Your Path to Skin Rejuvenation

At The Luxe Dose, we understand that maintaining youthful, radiant skin is a top priority for many of our patients. Located in Belmont, MA, and servicing the Boston area, our med spa specializes in advanced aesthetic treatments designed to address your skincare needs. One of our popular treatments is PDO Threads. This treatment is a non-surgical facelift technique that provides immediate and lasting results.


What are PDO Threads?

Polydioxanone (PDO) threads are biodegradable sutures that have been used in medical procedures for decades. These threads are safe, effective, and designed to be absorbed by your body over time. At The Luxe Dose, we use PDO Threads that are FDA Cleared-in-Cannula from PDO Max, to lift and tighten sagging skin, providing a natural and youthful appearance.

The Science Behind PDO Threads

PDO Threads work by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. Collagen is a protein that gives your skin its structure and elasticity. As we age, collagen production decreases, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. PDO Threads help reverse these signs of aging by promoting collagen synthesis, resulting in firmer, smoother skin.


How Does PDO Thread Lifting Work?

The PDO Thread procedure involves inserting the threads into the subcutaneous layer of your skin using a fine needle. Once in place, the threads create a scaffolding that lifts and supports the skin. Over time, the threads dissolve, leaving behind a network of new collagen fibers. This process not only lifts and tightens the skin but also improves skin texture and elasticity.


Areas Treated by PDO Threads

PDO Threads are incredibly versatile and can be used to treat various areas of the face and body, including:

- Forehead and brows

- Cheeks and midface

- Jawline and neck

- Nasolabial folds (smile lines)

- Marionette lines

- Décolletage


Benefits of PDO Threads

Skin Rejuvenation
PDO Threads enhance skin texture, reduce fine lines, and promote a more lifted, and healthier skin appearance.


Collagen Production
The treatment stimulates collagen synthesis, which continues to improve your skin over several months. Even after the thread has been absorbed, the collagen keeps building, giving the lasting effect- up to two years!


Non-Surgical
PDO Thread lifting is a minimally invasive alternative to a traditional facelift.


Quick Recovery
With minimal downtime, you can return to your daily activities shortly after the procedure. You might notice some swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the treatment site, which typically resolves within a few days. At The Luxe Dose we provide our patients an aftercare plan so they are able to optimize their results.
