PDO: Thread lift

PDO Thread Lifting: A Subtle Lift, With Your Features in Mind

If you are concerned about fine lines and wrinkles and would like to address sagging skin, a PDO thread lift may be the answer.

PDO (Polydioxanone) thread lifting is a non-surgical, minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that targets and immediately lifts sagging skin while stimulating natural collagen production. The threads are dissolvable sutures that are inserted into the subcutaneous layer to reposition facial and neck tissue, creating a mini facelift effect.

PDO Thread Lifts can help restore a more youthful appearance to the face and neck. The skin appears tighter, tauter, and more rejuvenated, with fewer fine lines and wrinkles.

What is a PDO Thread Lift?

We use fine polydioxanone threads (the same material used in medical sutures) to treat and lift sagging areas around the face and neck.

The threads are inserted beneath the skin using very fine needles to create a new and immediate support network that elevates tissue and encourages new collagen production around the threads once they’ve dissolved.

As an alternative to surgical facelifts, PDO threads avoid large incisions and general anaesthesia, offering a more subtle, natural lift that enhances features while preserving your expression.

See our before and after gallery.

Who this treatment is for

We typically recommend PDO threads for patients aged 45-65 who want a gentle, natural-looking lift without the added risks of traditional surgery. Using PDO threads, our medical aestheticians typically target and lift the jowls, nasolabial folds, jawline, crow’s feet, cheeks, eyebrows, and under-eye area.

We may recommend PDO thread lifting if you:

• Want a lifted, refreshed facial contour without surgery.
• Notice sagging cheeks, jawline “jowls” or laxity under the chin.
• Feel your skin has lost firmness and definition over time.
• Seek a natural-looking tightening effect rather than a dramatic surgical change.
• Want to boost collagen in areas with early-to-moderate signs of ageing.
• Prefer minimal downtime and a quicker return to daily activities.
• Have mild to moderate skin laxity.

Your visit, from consultation to recovery

At Aventis, your treatment begins with a personal consultation with Dr Imogen. We take time to understand your preferences and assess your facial contours.

The procedure typically takes 30–60 minutes.

Here’s what to expect:

• We numb the treatment areas with local anaesthetic to maximise comfort.
• We insert fine PDO threads under the skin to lift and reposition soft tissues.
• Immediately noticeable and improved facial contours.
• Additional tightening and texture improvement over the following weeks.
• Minor swelling, redness or tenderness is normal and usually resolves within a few days.

After treatment, relax with a complimentary collagen mask in our dedicated recovery room. A private exit allows you to leave discreetly, with your comfort and privacy in mind.

I've been seeing Imogen for several years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. The whole team at Aventis is always so warm and welcoming, and the clinic itself is beautiful.

Over the years I've had Botox, Aqualyx, moved entirely to medical-grade skincare, and laser treatments. The difference in my skin has been incredible. Growing up in Cayman and spending years working on the water, I wasn't always the best at looking after my skin, so having Imogen's guidance has been invaluable.

My goal has never been to stop ageing, but to age gracefully, and I'm genuinely so happy with the results so far. Highly recommend Imogen and the Aventis team.

My Botox and veneer appointment was amazing,  so quick, pain free, and the results are more than I could expect. Dr Jonathan Lavington was incredibly professional and my cosmetic dentistry was better than I could expect. Dr Imogen Bexfield work is impeccable and I would highly recommend.

Dr. Johnny is a highly skilled and meticulous professional. He performed my first root canal in under 45 minutes, ensuring I was completely comfortable and pain-free throughout the entire process. Exceptional care from start to finish—I highly recommend this dental practice for any procedure.
