PDO Thread Lift in China

Procedure: 45 min
Recommended stay: 3 days
Recovery: 2 days

PDO (Polydioxanone) thread lift inserts fine, absorbable threads under the skin to physically lift sagging tissue and stimulate collagen production. The threads create a scaffolding effect — immediate mechanical lift, plus progressive tightening over 3-6 months as new collagen forms around the threads. Treatment areas: jawline, cheeks, nasolabial folds, brow, neck. The procedure takes 30-45 minutes under local anesthesia. No incisions, no scars, minimal swelling for 2-3 days. Results last 12-18 months. PDO threads fully dissolve after 6-8 months, leaving behind new collagen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it as effective as a surgical facelift?
No. Thread lift provides moderate lifting — ideal for patients in their 30s-50s with early to moderate sagging. It cannot achieve the degree of lift of a surgical facelift. Think of it as a 'lunchtime lift' — subtle, natural, no downtime.
Are the threads safe?
Yes. PDO threads have been used in surgery for decades (sutures). They are fully absorbable and biocompatible. Allergic reactions are extremely rare.
