The “Thread Lift Glow”: How PDO Threads Improve More Than Just Skin Tightness
‘When you think of PDO Threads, the first thing that comes to mind is probably their impressive lifting power—and rightfully so. These dissolvable sutures are known for creating an instant, natural-looking lift in areas like the cheeks, jawline, neck, and brows without the need for surgery. But what many don’t realize is that PDO Threads do so much more than just tighten sagging skin.
At Soluma Aesthetics, we love PDO Threads because they’re not just a mechanical lift—they’re also a regenerative treatment that works with your body to improve skin quality, firmness, and radiance over time. It’s what we like to call the “Thread Lift Glow.”
More Than a Lift: The Collagen-Stimulating Magic of Threads
Once inserted beneath the skin, PDO (polydioxanone) threads trigger your body’s natural healing response. As the threads slowly dissolve over several months, they stimulate collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production, creating firmer, smoother, more youthful skin from the inside out.
This means:
-
Improved skin texture
-
Smaller pores
-
Increased elasticity
-
Healthier, more hydrated appearance
So while you may come in for a lift, you’ll walk away with skin that looks brighter, bouncier, and beautifully refreshed.
Smooth Threads vs. Lifting Threads: Not All Are Created Equal
There are two main types of PDO Threads we use at Soluma:
-
Barbed (Lifting) Threads: Designed to reposition and lift sagging tissue, ideal for defining jawlines, lifting cheeks, and softening jowls.
-
Smooth (Collagen-Stimulating) Threads: These don’t physically lift as much as they rebuild. Perfect for crepey or thinning skin around the eyes, mouth, and neck, they work by stimulating collagen and improving overall tone.
Most clients benefit from a customized combination of both types for natural, long-lasting results.
Why the “Glow” Is So Real
Here’s the beauty of PDO Threads: the results evolve and get better with time. Immediately after treatment, you’ll notice a subtle lift. But over the next few weeks and months, your skin continues to improve—firmer, more luminous, and visibly healthier.
It’s that radiant, lit-from-within look that people notice without being able to pinpoint exactly what you did.
Are PDO Threads Right for You?
If you’re starting to notice sagging, skin laxity, or dullness—and you’re not ready for surgery—PDO Threads are a powerful, non-invasive option. They pair beautifully with other treatments like:
-
Dermal fillers for volume loss
-
Sofwave for deep skin tightening
-
PRF Gel for regenerative healing and glow
Whether you’re in your 20s, 30s, 40s, or beyond, threads can be tailored to your needs and aesthetic goals.
