If you’re noticing your face isn’t looking as tight and youthful as it once did, you may be exploring your rejuvenation options. PDO thread lifts are a non-surgical skin tightening treatment that utilizes dissolvable sutures to lift and support sagging skin, resulting in a refreshed appearance without the need for surgery. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect at your appointment.

Picasso Medical Aesthetics and Spa has proudly served the Los Angeles County community for over 20 years, offering advanced treatments like wrinkle reduction, fillers, skin rejuvenation, and non-surgical facelifts for both women and men. Under the guidance of Dr. Sylvia Garcia, the team combines expertise, personalized care, and a relaxing spa environment to ensure every PDO thread treatment and aesthetic service delivers natural-looking, confidence-boosting results.

Consultation and Planning

Your visit begins with a consultation. During this time, we will assess your skin, discuss your goals, and outline the treatment areas. This careful planning ensures the threads are placed in the most strategic way for natural-looking results.

Preparing the Skin

On the day of your procedure, we will thoroughly cleanse your skin and apply numbing cream to keep you comfortable throughout the treatment. Most patients describe the process as tolerable, with minimal discomfort.

Thread Placement

Once the area is prepped, we will use a fine needle or cannula to inject the PDO threads under the skin. The threads are positioned in a specific pattern to create lift and encourage collagen production. Depending on your treatment plan, this step may take 30-60 minutes.

Immediate Results

After placement, we can gently adjust the threads to achieve the desired lift. You may notice an immediate tightening effect, though the full benefits develop over the next few months as collagen continues to build.

Post-Treatment Care

Before you leave, we will review the aftercare instructions with you. You may experience slight swelling or bruising, but these typically resolve within a few days. Most people return to normal activities within 24-48 hours.
