What is a PDO Thread Lift?
A PDO (polydioxanone) thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that uses dissolvable sutures to lift and tighten sagging skin on the face, jowls, and neck. Barbed threads are inserted under the skin and gently pulled upward to reposition tissue, while also stimulating collagen production as they dissolve over 6 to 9 months.
Treatment takes 45 to 90 minutes depending on the number of threads placed. Results are immediate with continued improvement over 2 to 3 months as collagen builds. Effects typically last 12 to 24 months, after which threads can be re-placed.
PDO thread lifts work best for mild to moderate skin laxity — patients with significant sagging are better candidates for a surgical facelift. Common treatment areas include the jowls, midface, brow, and neck. Pricing is typically per session and varies by how many threads are placed and which areas are treated.
How much does a PDO Thread Lift cost in Washington?

What to ask your provider
- Am I a good candidate — is my skin laxity mild to moderate, or would a surgical facelift give better results?
- How many threads do you recommend for my goals, and which areas will you treat?
- What brand of threads do you use — Silhouette Instalift, Nova, or another?
- Who performs the procedure — an MD, NP, or PA? How many thread lifts have you performed?
- Can I see before-and-after photos from your own patients?
- What is the expected recovery — bruising, swelling, activity restrictions?
Frequently asked questions
How much does a PDO thread lift cost in Washington?
A PDO thread lift in Washington typically costs $1,800 to $2,700 per session. Price depends on the number of threads placed and which areas are treated. A targeted lower-face lift runs lower than a comprehensive full-face treatment.
How long does a PDO thread lift last?
Results typically last 12 to 24 months. The threads dissolve over 6 to 9 months, stimulating collagen as they break down. The collagen produced extends the lifting effect beyond the thread itself. Most patients re-treat every 12 to 18 months to maintain results.
PDO thread lift vs facelift — which is right for me?
A PDO thread lift suits mild to moderate skin laxity with minimal downtime. A surgical facelift delivers more dramatic, longer-lasting results (5 to 10 years) for significant sagging. If your laxity is mild and you want a quick recovery, threads are a strong option. If you have significant jowling or excess skin, surgery will give better results.
What is PDO thread lift recovery like?
Expect mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness for 3 to 7 days. Dimpling or slight puckering at insertion sites is common and resolves within 1 to 2 weeks. Most patients return to work within a few days and see full results at 4 to 8 weeks. Avoid strenuous activity and facial massage for 2 weeks.
PDO thread lift vs Ultherapy vs filler — what is the difference?
PDO threads physically lift tissue using sutures. Ultherapy uses ultrasound energy to tighten skin from within — no physical lift, more gradual improvement. Filler adds volume to fill hollowing. These treatments are often combined: threads for lift, filler for volume, and Botox to relax muscles. Your injector should assess which combination matches your anatomy.
