PDO Threads

A carefully selected option for subtle support, smoothing, and collagen-focused goals—performed with anatomy and candidacy in mind.

Selective, not one-size-fits-all

PDO thread treatments use absorbable sutures placed beneath the skin. Depending on the thread type and treatment plan, goals may include selected support, repositioning, smoothing, or collagen stimulation.

Potential goals

  • Subtle support in carefully selected areas
  • Improvement in selected textural concerns
  • Collagen-focused rejuvenation
  • A minimally invasive option for appropriate candidates

Candidacy matters

Threads are not a replacement for surgical lifting and are not the right choice for every degree or pattern of laxity. Dr. James evaluates tissue quality, anatomy, expectations, and alternative treatments before making a recommendation.

What to expect

Your consultation includes a discussion of thread type, placement, expected change, temporary swelling or bruising, activity precautions, aftercare, and follow-up.

Comprehensive planning

When appropriate, threads may be considered alongside treatments addressing movement, volume, hydration, or collagen quality.

The procedure should fit the face

We begin with the anatomy and the aging pattern—not with a device or product. If another treatment, a staged plan, or no procedure is more appropriate, that is part of the conversation.
