Contact UsWhat Is A PDO Thread Lift?
At Watt Plastic Surgery & Med Spa, PDO thread lifting is a nonsurgical method that lifts and firms sagging facial skin. The thread lift is typically a perfect choice for those not ready for a surgical facelift yet still long to diminish evidence of age, such as lines, wrinkles, and hanging skin.
Our plastic surgeons use PDO collagen threads (also referred to as polydioxanone threads). These threads are dissolvable sutures guided into the skin to stimulate collagen production and boost sagging skin and laugh lines. Generally labeled a "lunchtime lift," a thread lift will not require significant recuperation time. Book an initial visit to our Tampa, FL office to see whether a thread lift is an ideal aesthetic choice for your objectives.
How Does A PDO Thread Lift Work?
Thread lifting is a nonsurgical treatment that usually takes an hour to complete. Before your thread lift appointment, a staff member will check with you to ascertain what thread lift to use, the number of injections needed, and the placement to achieve your ideal outcomes. Generally, we utilize a topical numbing cream to desensitize the procedure locations and help you to be comfortable. We will place the sutures through a delicate needle, gently pulling the threads to encourage a lifted look and youthful appearance. No incisions or cuts get used with this process.

I’m five months post-op and could not be happier with my results! I had a breast lift with implant exchange using Dr. Watt’s internal bra technique, and choosing him was truly the best decision.I had my previous implants for 11 years and wanted them replaced, but my goal was to keep the same size — just lifted, refreshed, and very natural-looking. Dr. Watt listened to exactly what I wanted and absolutely nailed it.The entire process takes patience, and you really do have to trust the process. It took almost five months to see my final results and how everything settled, but they turned out perfect. They are exactly what I hoped for, and I couldn’t be happier. I’m so thankful I chose Dr. Watt!
I went to Dr.Watt for a breast augmentation and was so impressed with everything from the consultation to the procedure to the final result!

Dr. Watt and his staff are wonderful! I love how smooth the process was to get in and out of the surgery center. Dr Watt did an amazing job on my implant exchange! I am very happy with my results
I cannot recommend Dr.Watt highly enough! From the very beginning, he was personable, professional, and genuinely invested in making sure I felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. The day before my breast augmentation and lift, he personally called me to answer any last-minute questions and make sure I didn't have any concerns, which meant so much and really helped put me at ease.The results exceeded my expectations—they came out absolutely perfect. His attention to detail and expertise are evident in his work. I also want to recognize his incredible staff, who worked extremely hard to fit me into a very tight scheduling window. Their dedication, responsiveness, and support made the entire experience seamless.I am beyond happy with my results and grateful for the exceptional care I received from both the surgeon and his team.

What Are The Benefits Of A PDO Thread Lift?
A PDO thread lift offers a number of advantages for people seeking facial rejuvenation without surgery. Key benefits include:
- Immediate lifting and firming: Threads provide an instant lift to sagging skin, resulting in a more defined and youthful facial contour.
- Collagen stimulation: The PDO threads stimulate your body's natural collagen production over time, improving skin elasticity, texture, and reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
- Natural-looking results: The lift is subtle and natural, enhancing your features without an "overdone" appearance.
- Minimally invasive: As a nonsurgical procedure, it involves no incisions, general anesthesia, or extensive downtime.
- Long-lasting: While results vary, the effects of a PDO thread lift can last for 1-2 years, as the collagen continues to improve skin quality even after the threads dissolve.

About UsPDO Thread Lift FAQs
What is the cost of a thread lift?
The actual cost of the PDO thread lift treatment will differ based on the number of threads required and will be decided based on your concerns and aims. Keep in mind that a thread lift is quite a bit lower in cost than surgery, so it may work as an alternative to a facelift. Our staff at Watt Plastic Surgery & Med Spa will share pricing details when you have your consultation.
How long will PDO thread lifting results be seen?
This will be based on your complexion's initial condition. Typically, the outcomes of a thread lift can last at least 18 months or more. After this period, you may want to have a subsequent procedure to help you maintain a renewed appearance. You could further extend your outcomes by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, which involves a balanced eating plan, consistent exercise, and an at-home skin routine.
Does a PDO thread lift hurt?
No, most clients do not report discomfort when they have a thread lift. Before starting, a numbing gel will be used to numb the targeted region to help you feel relaxed during the entire session. Some patients might experience mild aching or redness after the treatment, but this typically dissipates within a few days.
