What Is a PDO Thread Lift?
A PDO (polydioxanone) thread lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses fine, dissolvable threads to lift and tighten loose facial skin. These medical-grade threads have been used safely in surgical settings for decades. When placed beneath the skin, they create an immediate lifting effect and stimulate your body's natural collagen production for continued improvement over time.
How PDO Threads Work
During the procedure, our team inserts ultra-fine PDO threads into targeted areas of the face using a thin needle or cannula. The threads have tiny barbs or cones that grip the underlying tissue, allowing us to gently reposition and lift sagging skin. Once in place, the threads trigger a natural healing response that boosts collagen and elastin production, helping your skin stay firmer and more youthful long after the threads dissolve.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may be a good candidate for a PDO thread lift in Hollywood, FL if you have mild to moderate skin laxity and want noticeable results without the downtime or risks of surgery. Ideal candidates are in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and want to address concerns like drooping cheeks, jowls, nasolabial folds, or a less defined jawline. We'll evaluate your skin and goals during a consultation to determine if threads are the right approach for you.

A Boutique Experience Beyond Traditional Dentistry
Upper Dental isn't your typical dental office. Our space is designed to feel more like a spa than a clinic, warm, calming, and personal. When you come in for a PDO thread lift, you're treated by a collaborative team of cosmetic experts who take the time to understand your aesthetic goals. This whole-face approach means we consider how your threads, dermal fillers, and Botox can work together for balanced, harmonious results. We also offer facial harmonization as part of our complete aesthetic offering.
PDO Threads vs. Dermal Fillers, Which Is Right for You?
Both PDO threads and dermal fillers address signs of aging, but they work in different ways. Fillers add volume, plumping areas like the cheeks, lips, or nasolabial folds. Threads lift and reposition tissue, making them ideal for sagging skin along the jawline, midface, or brows.
In many cases, the two treatments complement each other beautifully. Threads provide the lift, while fillers restore lost volume. During your consultation, we'll help you decide whether threads, fillers, or a combination approach will best meet your goals. Contact us to learn more about which option is right for you.

On the day of your treatment, we'll apply a topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable. The procedure itself typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. You'll feel some pressure as the threads are placed, but most patients describe it as mild.
Afterward, you may have some swelling, bruising, or tenderness for a few days. Most people return to their normal activities within 24 to 48 hours. We'll give you simple aftercare instructions to help you heal comfortably and get the best possible results.
Frequently
asked questions
Everything you need to know about Non-Surgical PDO Thread Lift in Hollywood, FL at Upper Dental.
How long do PDO thread results last?
Results from a PDO thread lift typically last 12 to 18 months. The threads themselves dissolve over time, but the collagen stimulation they provide helps maintain lifting effects even after the threads are gone.
Is a thread lift painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during a PDO thread lift. A topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure, and the threads are very fine. Afterward, you may experience mild soreness or swelling for a few days, which is manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.
How is a PDO thread lift different from a surgical facelift?
A PDO thread lift is a non-surgical procedure with no incisions, no general anesthesia, and minimal downtime. A surgical facelift requires cuts, longer recovery, and higher cost. Thread lifts are best for mild to moderate sagging, while surgical lifts address more advanced aging.
What happens if I skip treatment, will my skin continue to sag?
Skipping a PDO thread lift does not cause your skin to sag more than it would naturally with aging. The procedure is designed to lift and stimulate collagen, but if you choose not to proceed, your skin will continue to age at its normal rate. There is no rebound effect.
