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:

  1. Instant Lift & Tightening: The threads provide immediate structural support, gently repositioning sagging skin for a more lifted appearance.
  2. 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.

Face & Neck

  • Non-surgical facelift for sagging skin
  • Jawline contouring and definition
  • Eyebrow lift (Fox Eye Lift)
  • Cheek lift to restore youthful volume
  • Neck tightening to reduce loose skin

Body

  • Tightens loose skin on the abdomen after weight loss or pregnancy
  • Improves skin elasticity on arms, thighs, and knees
  • Enhances buttock lifting for a firmer appearance

Who Is a Good Candidate for PDO Threads?

PDO thread lifts are ideal for individuals experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity who want a natural-looking lift without surgery. You may be a great candidate if you:

  • Are noticing sagging skin, fine lines, or wrinkles
  • Want tightened and rejuvenated skin without invasive procedures
  • Are looking for a quick procedure with little downtime
  • Prefer gradual, long-lasting collagen stimulation for natural results

PDO Thread Lift Results & Recovery

The results of a PDO thread lift are immediate, with continued improvement over the following 3 to 6 months as collagen production increases. Most patients enjoy their results for 12 to 18 months, and follow-up treatments can help maintain long-term benefits.

Downtime & Aftercare

  • Mild swelling and bruising may occur but typically resolves within 5 to 7 days
  • Avoid strenuous activities and excessive facial movements for the first 48 hours
  • Results continue improving over time as collagen rebuilds and tightens the skin naturally.

At Beautologie, we offer personalized maintenance plans to help you achieve long-lasting results and maintain your youthful appearance.
