What is PDO Threads?
Dissolvable Threads That Lift Now and Build Collagen Over Time
PDO (polydioxanone) threads are dissolvable medical sutures strategically placed beneath the skin to provide gentle lifting support while stimulating collagen production. As the threads naturally dissolve, newly formed collagen helps improve skin firmness, elasticity, and facial definition, creating results that continue to evolve over the following months. Because the lift is created by placement and by your own collagen response, planning matters as much as technique. We map each thread vector to your anatomy so the result supports your natural facial structure. Patients from Englewood, Englewood Cliffs, Tenafly, Teaneck, Fort Lee, and across Bergen County choose our practice for conservative, harmony-first thread work.
