PDO Threads in Bakersfield – A Non-Surgical Facelift Solution
What Are PDO Threads?
PDO (polydioxanone) threads are an innovative, non-surgical treatment designed to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate the skin. As we age, our skin gradually loses collagen and elastin due to factors like gravity, environmental exposure, and natural aging. This leads to sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles.
PDO threads provide a minimally invasive alternative to facelift surgery, helping to restore a youthful and firmer appearance with little to no downtime. Unlike traditional surgical procedures, PDO thread lifts require no large incisions, making them a safe and effective solution for those seeking natural-looking results without the risks and recovery time associated with surgery.
At Beautologie in Bakersfield, we use NOVA threads, a highly effective type of PDO thread that is safely absorbed by the body over time while stimulating collagen production. These threads are placed strategically beneath the skin using a fine needle, creating a lifting effect while simultaneously improving skin texture, elasticity, and volume loss.
How Do PDO Threads Work?
PDO threads have been used in the medical field for decades, particularly in cardiothoracic surgeries and other medical applications. In aesthetics, PDO threads are inserted under the skin to achieve a dual effect:
- Instant Lift & Tightening: The threads provide immediate structural support, gently repositioning sagging skin for a more lifted appearance.
- Collagen Stimulation: As the threads dissolve over 4 to 6 months, they trigger the body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production. This results in firmer, smoother, and more youthful skin that continues to improve over time.
The procedure is performed in-office in less than an hour, and local anesthesia is used for comfort. Most patients experience minimal discomfort, and any swelling or bruising typically resolves within one week.
What Areas Can PDO Threads Treat?

PDO threads can be used on multiple areas of the face and body, making them a versatile treatment option for skin tightening and rejuvenation.

PDO Thread Lift Results & Recovery
