About PDO Threading
PDO threading is a skin rejuvenation treatment that smooths and tightens the complexion. As an innovative and noninvasive procedure, it works well for patients who want to reduce the signs of aging without requiring surgery. Commonly known as a thread lift, we use durable, polymer threads that gently raise and tighten the skin. While decreasing the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and nasolabial folds, PDO threading helps refresh the middle part of your face. Additionally, it can stimulate the production of an essential skin nutrient known as collagen. Collagen increases the suppleness and firmness of the skin so even after the threads have dissolved, your skin will continue to improve. Our team is proud to provide PDO threading to our Denver, CO community. Please call Mountain Med Spa to learn more about this treatment option.

Is PDO Threading For You?
Patients with wrinkles, drooping skin, or fine lines may be ideal candidates for PDO threading. Typically, these signs of aging happen because of a decrease in the production of elastin and collagen. When these nutrients start to decline, it can decrease the suppleness and firmness of your skin. PDO threading is often combined with other skin rejuvenation treatments, like dermal fillers or wrinkle relaxers. At your consultation, a team member will go over your concerns and goals while providing realistic expectations. Depending on the severity of your sagging skin, a facelift might work best for you. Throughout your appointment, we encourage you to ask any questions you may have about this procedure.
What to Expect
After creating a detailed treatment plan, we will take you back to one of our private procedure rooms. Patients can lie on a comfortable treatment chair as we cleanse and numb the skin. After your complexion is completely numb, one of our team members will carefully insert the specialized thread and gently lift the sagging skin.
Once we have completed your procedure, you can recover at your house. Typically, patients have mild symptoms, such as swelling or redness near the insertion site. Over the next 1 – 2 days, these side effects should subside. Right after your procedure, you will see a dramatic improvement in your complexion. Your skin will look smoother, tighter, and rejuvenated. To extend your results, we recommend following all of our aftercare instructions. If properly followed, your results can last about two years. You may also want to further enhance your results with other types of skin rejuvenation procedures. If so, we will discuss this prior to your treatment so we can determine if the additional treatment option is right for you.
PDO Threading FAQ
How much does PDO threading cost?
The actual cost of the PDO threading (PDO thread lift) procedure could fluctuate according to the number of threads required, which are chosen based on your concerns and aims. Bear in mind that the procedure is considerably lower in cost than a cosmetic surgical procedure — so it can work as an option for a facelift surgery alternative. Our staff at Mountain Med Spa will tell you more about pricing details during your first appointment.
How long will the results from my PDO threading procedure last?
This will depend on the initial health of your skin. In most cases, the results of PDO threading might be seen for up to 18 months or more. Following this period, you might wish to get a follow-up treatment to help you maintain a renewed appearance. You can additionally uphold your outcomes by keeping up a healthy lifestyle that involves a balanced diet, frequent exercise, proper hydration, and a home skin regimen.
Is PDO threading painful?
No, many people will not feel uncomfortable when they have a PDO threading procedure. Prior to beginning, a topical anesthetic gel can be used to numb the treatment region so you'll be comfortable throughout the entire procedure. Some people may have minor aching or redness following the treatment, although this commonly goes away over several days.
What areas can be treated with PDO threading?
PDO threading can be used to treat various areas of the face and body. Common treatment areas include the eyebrows, forehead, cheeks, jowls, neck, jawline, and nasolabial folds. It can also be used to lift sagging skin on the arms, thighs, and abdomen.
Is PDO threading a surgical procedure?
No, PDO threading is a minimally invasive procedure and does not involve surgery. The procedure usually takes about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the treatment area and the number of threads used.
