What You Can Expect from PDO Threads
Experience a subtle yet noticeable lift in sagging areas, improved skin texture, and increased collagen production—all with minimal downtime. Our expertly placed FDA-approved NovaThreads, made in the USA, are designed to firm and revitalize the skin from within. Whether you want to contour your jawline, elevate your cheeks, or address mild skin laxity, PDO Threads offer a solution that’s safe, effective, and natural-looking.
What Are PDO Threads?
PDO (Polydioxanone) Threads are sterile, absorbable sutures made from a biocompatible material that’s been safely used in surgical procedures for decades. When inserted beneath the skin, these threads provide an immediate lifting effect while also triggering your body’s collagen production response, improving skin firmness and elasticity over time.
At Plaza Aesthetics & Wellness, we use NovaThreads, an FDA-approved brand of PDO threads produced in the United States. Available in various sizes—from ultra-fine mono threads to thicker, braided barbed threads—NovaThreads allow us to tailor your treatment to your specific needs and goals.
What Sets PDO Threads Apart?
Unlike dermal fillers or traditional facelifts, PDO threads provide mechanical lift and biological rejuvenation—a two-in-one solution. What sets them apart:
- Instant lift effect with continued collagen stimulation for months
- Minimally invasive procedure with local numbing
- Fully dissolvable threads that break down naturally in the body
- Customizable to your unique facial structure and problem areas
- No general anesthesia or major downtime required
This combination of immediate results and long-term skin regeneration is what makes PDO threads an exciting alternative to more invasive procedures.
What Can PDO Threads Treat?
PDO threads can be used across the face and body to address a variety of concerns. Popular treatment areas include:
- Jawline – Improve definition and reduce sagging
- Cheeks – Lift sunken cheeks for a fuller, more youthful appearance
- Neck – Tighten loose skin or “tech neck” lines
- Brows – Gently elevate a hooded brow for a more awake look
- Nasolabial folds & marionette lines – Soften deep facial creases
- Abdomen, knees, and arms – Improve skin tone and texture on the body
While most commonly used on the face, PDO threads are also suitable for certain areas of the body that require tightening and rejuvenation.
Your PDO Thread Journey at Plaza Aesthetics & Wellness
Botox and PDO threads are completely different procedures. Botox is placed in different areas on the face and doesn’t lift the tissue but paralyzes it. Nova threads help raise sagging tissue and allow new collagen production, while Botox relaxes the muscle underneath the skin.
Especially for lower face laxity or areas that need more definition, Botox is not an appropriate treatment. Before PDO thread technology was developed, we used dermal fillers for brows and along the jawline, which often left patients looking over full. This has led to hesitancy in patients when it comes to using dermal fillers and has increased the popularity of PDO threads in the aesthetic market.
Who Is PDO Thread Treatment For?
- Adults in their 30s to 60s with mild to moderate skin laxity
- Individuals who want a non-surgical facelift alternative
- People looking to boost collagen production and prevent aging
- Those who have lost facial definition due to aging or weight loss
- Anyone wanting subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation without downtime
It’s a great option for those not ready for surgery but still want meaningful, long-lasting results.
