What Is A PDO Thread Lift?

At AFL Beauty Bar in Atlanta, PDO Thread Lifts are a non-surgical option for lifting and tightening the skin. PDO stands for Polydioxanone—a material that has been safely used in medical procedures for years because the body naturally absorbs it with minimal scarring. In aesthetic treatments, these threads are carefully placed under the skin to gently lift sagging areas and encourage your body’s natural healing response.

As the threads dissolve over time, they trigger a boost in collagen production around the treated areas. This helps improve skin firmness, texture, and elasticity. Unlike fillers that add volume, PDO Thread Lifts work by supporting the skin’s structure and promoting long-term rejuvenation.

Which Areas Can Be Treated With A PDO Thread Lift?

At AFL Beauty Bar in Atlanta, a PDO Thread Lift can be used to target several areas of the face, neck, and even certain parts of the body. This treatment is especially effective for areas that commonly show signs of aging and are often treated with options like dermal fillers or Ultherapy. Popular treatment spots include the neck, jowls, jawline, cheeks, and under the eyes. It’s also helpful for softening lines around the nose and mouth—such as nasolabial folds, nasojugal folds, and marionette lines—as well as lifting the brows and smoothing out crow’s feet. In some cases, PDO threads can also be used on areas like the stomach or knees to help tighten loose skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not at all. At AFL Beauty Bar in Atlanta, PDO Thread Lifts are a non-surgical treatment that doesn’t involve any cutting or incisions—just a series of injections. Unlike traditional surgery, there’s minimal downtime, lower cost, and fewer risks. Even without going under the knife, thread lifts can deliver noticeable lifting and tightening effects that come close to what you’d expect from surgical procedures.

At AFL Beauty Bar in Atlanta, a PDO Thread Lift is a great option for those noticing early signs of aging but who aren’t ready for a full surgical facelift. It’s best for people with mild to moderate skin laxity—often those in their late 30s to early 50s—looking for a non-surgical way to lift and tighten their skin. If you’re in good overall health and want a less invasive way to enhance your appearance, a PDO Thread Lift can be a smart addition to your anti-aging routine.

At AFL Beauty Bar in Atlanta, the effects of a PDO Thread Lift typically last between 12 to 15 months. The threads themselves stay in place for about four to six months before your body naturally absorbs them. During that time, they trigger new collagen production, which continues to firm and tighten the skin even after the threads are gone. Many clients choose to return every few months—often around the 4-month mark—to maintain results and keep collagen production going strong.

Before your thread lift at AFL Beauty Bar in Atlanta, there are a few things you can do to help ensure a smooth procedure and recovery. It’s recommended to avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin, warfarin, or heparin, as well as certain supplements—such as vitamin A, D, and E, fish oil, flaxseed oil, garlic, ginkgo, magnesium, and evening primrose oil—in the days leading up to your appointment. You should also skip alcohol for at least 48 hours before treatment, as it can increase the risk of bruising or swelling. Following these guidelines will help your skin respond better and heal more comfortably.
