PDO Threads Nonsurgical in Plano, TX
PDO Threads Nonsurgical in Plano, TX
PDO Threads Nonsurgical is a minimally invasive facial rejuvenation treatment that offers an alternative to traditional surgical facelifts. This procedure involves placing thin, absorbable threads beneath the skin to lift and tighten facial areas such as the cheeks, jowls, and jawline. As a result of the threads, the body produces more collagen, enhancing skin texture and firmness. As the body absorbs the threads over time, they continue to provide a lifting effect, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
This treatment suits both men and women looking to address signs of aging without undergoing surgery. Patients can expect visible improvements within 4 to 6 months, with results lasting 12 to 18 months, depending on factors such as age and skin condition. For those interested in PDO Threads Nonsurgical, AVIA Medical Spa in Plano, TX, offers personalized treatment plans tailored to individual aesthetic goals.

What Are PDO Threads?
PDO threads are thin, absorbable sutures made from polydioxanone, a material used in medical procedures for many years. During treatment, the threads are carefully placed beneath the skin to provide structural support or encourage collagen production.
As the threads gradually dissolve, the body responds by producing collagen around the treated area. This process can help improve firmness, texture, and elasticity over time.
Depending on the type of thread used, PDO thread treatment may help:
- Lift mildly sagging facial tissue
- Improve jawline definition
- Reduce the appearance of early jowling
- Support firmer-looking skin
- Improve facial contours
- Encourage natural collagen production
- Soften the appearance of certain fine lines
- Refresh the cheeks, lower face, and neck
Who Is a Good Candidate for PDO Threads?
PDO threads may be suitable for adults who:
- Have mild to moderate facial skin laxity
- Want a subtle improvement rather than a dramatic transformation
- Are concerned about early jowling or reduced jawline definition
- Want to support collagen production
- Prefer a minimally invasive treatment
- Understand that the results are temporary
- Have realistic expectations about the outcome

Frequently Asked Questions
No. PDO threads can create a subtle lift and encourage collagen production, but they cannot remove excess skin or produce the same degree of correction as facelift surgery. They are generally better suited to mild or moderate laxity.
Lifting threads may create some immediate improvement, although swelling can temporarily affect the appearance. Collagen-related changes develop gradually over the following weeks and months. Smooth threads generally produce more gradual improvements.
Results are temporary. Their duration depends on the thread type, treatment area, skin condition, age, lifestyle, and individual collagen response. Your provider can give you a more personalized estimate during your consultation.
Many patients return to light activities relatively quickly, but temporary swelling, bruising, tenderness, or tightness may occur. Your provider may recommend temporarily avoiding strenuous exercise, facial massage, and pressure on the treated areas.
A local anesthetic may be used to improve comfort. Patients may still feel pressure, pulling, or tugging during placement. Tenderness can occur after treatment, but the experience varies from person to person.
There is no standard number that works for everyone. The number and type of threads depend on your facial anatomy, degree of laxity, treatment areas, and desired outcome.
