What is a PDO Thread Lift?
Benefits of PDO Thread Lifts
PDO Thread Lifts have gained significant attention in the field of aesthetic medicine due to their numerous benefits. They offer a non-invasive alternative to traditional facelifts, providing dramatic, immediate results without the need for downtime or the discomfort associated with surgical interventions. This procedure is incredibly versatile, able to address sagging skin in various areas of the face and body, including the cheeks, jawline, neck, and even the abdomen.
The PDO Thread Lift also encourages the body’s natural production of collagen, a protein essential for skin elasticity and firmness. As the PDO threads dissolve, they stimulate collagen synthesis, helping to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and restore elasticity. As a result, patients enjoy the dual benefits of immediate lifting and long-term rejuvenation.
Candidates in Phoenix and Scottsdale
The PDO Thread Lift procedure is ideally suited for individuals experiencing mild to moderate sagging of facial skin. This can include drooping cheeks, jowls, sagging eyebrows, or a neck that is beginning to lose its firmness and contour. It’s an excellent option for those who want the benefits of a facelift without undergoing invasive surgery. PDO Thread Lifts have proven particularly beneficial for individuals in their mid-thirties to fifties, experiencing early signs of aging such as mild to moderate sagging skin. Additionally, if you’ve undergone significant weight loss resulting in sagging skin or live in a harsh climate (like AZ) that may accelerate skin aging, you may also be an excellent candidate for PDO Thread Lifts. However, the best way to determine if you’re a good candidate for a PDO Thread Lift is through a personal consultation at Beso Wellness and Beauty. During this appointment, our specialists will evaluate your skin condition, discuss your aesthetic goals, and review your health history to determine if this procedure is the best fit for you.
Consultations with Beso
Your journey to rejuvenation starts with a comprehensive consultation at Beso Wellness and Beauty.

We encourage you to prepare any questions you may have regarding the procedure and to openly discuss your expectations. We believe in informed decision-making, and that’s why we ensure you understand every aspect of the PDO Thread Lift. We discuss what the procedure entails, what results you can expect, any potential risks, and answer any questions you may have.
Preparing for PDO Thread Lifts
In the days leading up to your PDO Thread Lift, there are a few recommendations to ensure the best possible outcome. You should avoid medications or supplements that can thin the blood (such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or vitamin E) for at least one week prior, as these can increase the risk of bleeding or bruising. It’s essential to disclose all medications and supplements you’re taking during your consultation. We also recommend maintaining a healthy lifestyle—staying hydrated, eating a balanced diet, getting regular exercise, and avoiding alcohol and tobacco—to ensure your body is in the best possible condition for the procedure. Finally, we’ll discuss any skincare products or routines you should follow before your treatment.
What to Expect
From the moment you step into Beso Wellness and Beauty, you’ll be welcomed into a caring, professional environment where your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities. The PDO Thread Lift procedure typically takes about one hour, depending on the areas being treated. We use local anesthesia to ensure you remain comfortable throughout the procedure. Since there are no incisions or tissue removal, most patients find the PDO Thread Lift to be quite tolerable.
The treatment involves inserting thin threads beneath the skin using a fine needle. These threads are then carefully positioned to lift and support sagging tissues and muscles. Once the threads are in place, they’re secured, and the needle is removed. The lift is instantly noticeable, but the full results develop over time as your body produces more collagen in response to the threads. You can expect to leave our clinic with a naturally rejuvenated appearance, and the results will only improve in the coming weeks.
The Procedure in Phoenix
The PDO Thread Lift is a minimally invasive, office-based procedure. After applying local anesthesia to the treatment area, your aesthetic specialist will insert the PDO threads using a thin, hollow needle. The threads are introduced into the skin’s subdermal layer, in a pattern customized to your specific needs and anatomy.
These threads are then maneuvered to provide lift and support to the sagging tissues, effectively recontouring and rejuvenating the treatment area. Once the threads are positioned, they are secured, and the needle is removed. This process is repeated until the desired lift is achieved.
One of the benefits of the PDO Thread Lift is that it doesn’t require any incisions or tissue removal, which significantly reduces the procedure’s downtime and potential side effects. Furthermore, because the procedure stimulates the body’s natural healing response, the results improve over time as your skin produces new collagen.
After Care
Following your PDO Thread Lift, it’s normal to experience mild swelling, bruising, or tightness in the treated areas. These side effects are typically temporary, resolving within a few days. We recommend that you avoid strenuous activities, avoid rubbing your face, and limit extreme facial expressions for the first few weeks to allow the threads to settle and the collagen production to take effect.
In the days following the PDO Thread Lift, it is crucial to keep an eye out for any unusual symptoms such as severe pain, excessive swelling, or fever. If you notice any of these, contact our clinic immediately for advice and assistance. Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided to you, including tips on how to sleep to avoid disturbing the threads, skincare recommendations to speed up recovery, and signs to watch for that may indicate complications. Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor your healing process and ensure the best results.
Associated Procedures in Scottsdale
PDO Thread Lifts can be performed in conjunction with other aesthetic treatments to achieve more comprehensive results. Dermal fillers can be used to restore volume and smooth out deep wrinkles, while Botox can help relax facial muscles and reduce the appearance of fine lines and dynamic wrinkles. Additionally, treatments like Laser Hair Removal can ensure your skin remains flawless and hair-free. By combining treatments, we can deliver a more holistic approach to facial rejuvenation.
Price
The cost of PDO Thread Lift treatments at Beso Wellness and Beauty is individualized, depending on the complexity of the procedure, the number of threads used, and the areas treated. During your consultation, our specialists will provide a detailed estimate based on your personalized treatment plan. At Beso, we believe in transparent pricing, and we will ensure you fully understand the costs associated with your procedure.
