What Is A PDO Thread Lift?
A PDO thread lift is a way to lift and firm up loose skin without surgery. Many people choose this procedure when they want to reduce signs of aging, like fine lines, folds, and sagging, but aren't ready for a full facelift. For a nonsurgical lift, the team at Blue Skies Aesthetics uses PDO collagen threads — also known as polydioxanone threads — which are medical-grade sutures placed under the skin to stimulate collagen production. This extra collagen helps lift sagging skin, soften nasolabial folds, and create a natural-looking firmness. Sometimes called a "lunchtime lift" due to its brief recovery, this treatment has become popular for those looking for a subtle refresh without long downtime. Schedule a consultation at our practice in San Antonio, TX to discuss if a PDO thread facelift aligns with your beauty goals.
How Does A PDO Thread Lift Work?
A PDO thread lift is a quick procedure that typically takes about an hour to complete. During your initial consultation, we'll discuss which threads work best for you, where to place them, and how many you may need for your ideal results. Before starting, a topical numbing agent is applied to keep you comfortable. Using a very fine needle, the PDO threads are carefully inserted under the skin. Once placed, these threads are pulled gently to lift your skin and enhance youthful contours. The threads stay in place under the skin where they support collagen growth and provide long-lasting results. No incisions are needed with this nonsurgical treatment, which helps minimize scarring. To maintain your refreshed look, our team recommends avoiding strenuous activities, facial massages, and extreme facial movements for a few days. Staying hydrated and moisturizing can also enhance the results and promote skin health.
What Are the Benefits of A PDO Thread Lift?
Choosing a PDO thread lift is a great option for our San Antonio, TX-area clients who want a refreshed, lifted look without surgery. It offers several benefits that make it an attractive choice for nonsurgical facial rejuvenation, including:
- Minimally invasive with little recovery time
- Collagen generation for glowing, long-lasting results
- Effective lifting of nasolabial folds and other facial lines
- Natural-looking outcome that refreshes your appearance
- Results that can last longer than other nonsurgical options, like dermal fillers
Blue Skies Aesthetics Reviews
Best I’ve Felt in a Long TimeAs a guy, I wasn’t sure if a med spa was really my thing. But after just one visit to Blue Skies Aesthetics, I can honestly say I’ve been missing out. I booked a HydroFacial and an IV drip, and I can’t imagine feeling any better than I did walking out of there.The team was welcoming, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience incredibly comfortable. The HydroFacial left my skin feeling clean, smooth, and energized. The IV drip gave me a boost I didn’t even know I needed.If you’re a guy who’s been on the fence, this is your sign to go. Don’t leave all the benefits of self-care to the ladies. I highly, highly, highly recommend Blue Skies Aesthetics. You won’t regret it! Tell them Blake sent you!
I LOVE Blue skies so much. From the services they offer, to the customer service. Miranda , Celeste and all of the ladies in this business, provide a high-level of services and are simply just fun to be around. Very grateful I was referred and will refer all of my family and friends here. 💕
I love the new location!! The injector, Celeste, provides education every step of the way. Alexis gives the best Hydrafacial!! Thank you so much Blue Skies Ladies!!
This place is amazing! Besides injectables, I’d never done any kind of facial treatments before coming to Blue Skies. I started my journey earlier this year to treat melasma, and Alexis has been nothing short of amazing during this time. She’s so informative and really makes you feel heard throughout the treatment process. She answers all of my questions and concerns, and I love that she holds me accountable with maintenance and post-treatment care.The office environment is exceptionally clean and cozy, and all of the girls are so welcoming. I would 100% recommend this spa to anyone looking to start their skincare journey. My only regret is not finding them sooner.
The whole team is wonderful, kind, and skilled. I’m just beginning my journey and am excited!
