A Subtle Lift That Builds Its Own Support
PDO threads use polydioxanone, a biocompatible, dissolvable suture material, placed beneath the skin to physically lift sagging areas while stimulating new collagen production.
Albany uses Silhouette InstaLift threads, and offers both barbed and smooth thread types depending on your goals: barbed threads grip the underlying tissue to provide an immediate, mechanical lift, while smooth threads focus on stimulating collagen and improving skin quality without the same lifting effect. As the threads dissolve naturally over several months, the collagen they triggered stays behind, holding your results in place well after the thread itself is gone.

Your PDO Thread Treatment at a Glance
A Precise, Minimally Invasive Lift
Your provider selects from Silhouette InstaLift barbed, smooth, or twisted threads depending on the area and result you're after, then places them using a thin needle for a lift that looks natural, not pulled.
Consultation & Thread Selection
Your provider assesses your skin laxity and selects the right thread type, barbed, smooth, or twisted, for your treatment areas.
Numbing & Prep
The treatment area is cleansed and numbed to keep the procedure comfortable.
Thread Placement
Threads are inserted beneath the skin using a thin needle, lifting and supporting the treated area.
Aftercare Review
Your provider walks you through recovery expectations and what to avoid over the following days.
Who Benefits Most From PDO Threads
PDO threads are best suited for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity who want a lift without surgery. You may be a good candidate if you:
- Notice mild to moderate sagging in the cheeks, jawline, or neck
- Want a subtle lift rather than a surgical facelift
- Are interested in both an immediate result and long-term collagen benefits
- Have realistic expectations about the gradual, natural-looking improvement
- Are in good general health with no active skin infections in the treatment area
- Want a treatment that requires minimal downtime

Before & After Results
Any Questions?
Threads use dissolvable PDO sutures to lift sagging skin and stimulate collagen production in the face, neck, and jawline.
Most patients tolerate Threads well, with numbing applied to keep treatment comfortable.
Threads results typically last 12 to 18 months.
Threads provide an immediate lift, with continued improvement over the following 3 to 6 months.
Most patients need 1 session, with results maintained by repeat treatments as needed.
Downtime is minimal, though patients should avoid excessive facial movement and sleeping face-down for the first few days.
