PDO THREADLIFT

ADMINISTERED BY OUR REGISTERED MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS​

At Dermathetics, PDO Threadlifts offer a revolutionary way to combat sagging skin and restore youthful vitality, all from our state-of-the-art clinic in Farringdon, London. This non-surgical marvel uses dissolvable Polydioxanone (PDO) threads to mechanically hoist jowls, necks, and brows into a lifted position, delivering immediate results without the downtime of a traditional facelift. Our highly experienced medical practitioners, renowned for their mastery in thread lifting, harness this treatment to tighten loose skin and spark collagen production, ensuring your complexion glows with renewed elasticity and texture. It’s the ultimate fusion of instant lift and lasting rejuvenation—tailored to your unique features.

The process is elegantly simple yet profoundly effective. PDO threads, a clinically trusted material from surgical sutures, are expertly inserted beneath the skin using local anaesthetic, hooking into tissue to create an uplifted silhouette. As these threads naturally dissolve over months, they trigger your body’s collagen and elastin engines, smoothing fine lines, plumping volume, and refining skin quality for a radiant, long-term boost. For sculpting a sharper jawline our Farringdon specialists customise every treatment to your needs, often pairing it with complementary therapies for unparalleled results.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are PDO Threadlifts and how do they work?

PDO Threadlifts use dissolvable Polydioxanone threads, inserted under the skin, to instantly lift sagging tissue while stimulating collagen and elastin production. At Dermathetics, this dual-action treatment tightens skin and enhances texture for a natural, rejuvenated look that lasts.

Which areas can PDO Threadlifts treat?

Our medical practitioners target cheeks, jawlines (jowls) lifting sagging skin and refining contours. It’s perfect for facial jowls, or loose skin needing a boost.

How long do PDO Threadlift results last?

The lift lasts 6-8 months as threads dissolve, with collagen benefits extending skin firmness beyond that. Repeat treatments can maintain your refreshed appearance—our practitioners will advise on timing.

Does a PDO Threadlift hurt?

Not at all—local anaesthetic numbs the area before we begin, ensuring a comfortable experience. Post-treatment, you might feel mild tenderness, easily managed with over-the-counter pain relief for a day or two.

What’s the recovery time like?

What sets Dermathetics apart is our deep expertise and innovative approach. Our practitioners are industry leaders in PDO threading, bringing global training and a keen eye for natural aesthetics to every procedure. We don’t just lift—we rejuvenate holistically, offering options like PDO MINT threads for a stronger lift or combining with skin-tightening technologies for a transformative effect. This dedication to excellence makes our Farringdon clinic a top destination for those seeking a non-surgical facelift with real impact. From consultation to aftercare, we guide you through a seamless journey to firmer, fresher skin.

What should I do after a PDO Threadlift?

Avoid exercise (except light walks) for 7-14 days, sleep on your back for 5 nights, and skip social events for about 5 days due to visible marks. We’ll provide detailed aftercare to maximise your lift.

Can I combine PDO Threadlifts with other treatments?

Yes, many benefit from pairing it with Tixel2 thermal skin resurfacing or dermal fillers for added volume and tightening. Our Farringdon team crafts bespoke combos for optimal, natural results.

Are there side effects to PDO Threadlifts?

Common effects include puckering and swelling (3-21 days) and occasional bruising. PDO MINT threads may cause more swelling, while Silhouette Soft threads might bruise more—both fade naturally.

Who is a good candidate for PDO Threadlifts?

Typically suited for ages 45-65 (average client age: 51), it’s ideal if you have mild to moderate sagging. A consultation at Dermathetics assesses your suitability and explores alternatives if needed.

What can I expect during and after the procedure?

The 30-60 minute treatment involves thread insertion under anaesthetic, with instant lifting visible. Post-procedure, your face may feel tight (easing in 24-48 hours), with tenderness for weeks—our team ensures you’re prepared and supported.

Why choose Dermathetics for PDO Threadlifts?

Our Farringdon clinic boasts industry-leading practitioners, extensive threading experience, and a holistic approach with premium threads and aftercare. It’s London’s premier spot for non-surgical lifting with transformative, award-worthy results.

I had treatments with Aisha and am very happy indeed. From the consultation to the actual treatment, Aisha was careful to consider the ultimate goals and how to get there- and what was possible, always with patient preferences in mind. Her approach is always for lightness of touch and a natural outcome. I will definitely be back. Thank you Aisha!

I had a lip flip and under-eye polynucleotide treatment with Aisha, and I had a wonderful experience at the clinic. Aisha was incredibly kind, professional, and informative throughout the entire process. She took the time to explain the treatments clearly and answered all of my questions, which made me feel much more comfortable. I was quite nervous during the procedure, but she was very supportive and reassuring, helping me feel at ease every step of the way. I would highly recommend Aisha and the clinic to anyone considering these treatments.

I just had my first Profhilo and Profhilo Structura sessions, and I can say that all of the employees are very kind and professional. Aisha was so nice and kind, explained every step so well and did her job incredibly professionally. Even though I've only just had the first sessions, I can already feel the difference and am looking forward to my second Profhilo session!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am so happy with my chemical peel results! I’ve struggled with acne, so I decided to give it a try, and I’m so glad I did. Since the treatment, my skin feels smoother, looks brighter, and has a healthy glow. The biggest difference for me has been how much calmer my skin is. My breakouts are healing faster, my skin looks less congested, and even some of my old acne marks are starting to fade. The whole experience was lovely from start to finish. Aisha made me feel completely comfortable throughout the appointment and took the time to clearly explain the entire process, what to expect during the treatment, and the benefits for my skin concerns. She also went through the aftercare in detail and made sure I felt confident about how to look after my skin afterwards to achieve the best results. My skin already looks and feels so much healthier, and it’s given me a real confidence boost. Aisha is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely cares about helping her clients achieve the best results possible. I can’t wait for my next treatment and would highly recommend Aisha to anyone looking to improve their skin, especially if you’re struggling with acne, acne marks, or uneven skin texture.

I had such a wonderful experience at this clinic and I can honestly say it stands out from any other place I’ve been to. The level of care and attention I received was completely different — in the best way possible. From the beginning, the staff took their time with me, really listening and explaining everything in detail. I never felt rushed, which is something I’ve experienced at other clinics where the focus seems to be just on completing the treatment quickly. Here, they truly care about the customer. I was given a very thorough and completely free consultation, where my skin was carefully assessed and everything was explained clearly, along with personalised advice — something I’ve never received elsewhere. I had a polynucleotide treatment, and I’m extremely happy with the results. My skin was previously very red, sensitive, and dehydrated, and I wasn’t even fully sure what was causing it. After the treatment, my skin looked noticeably calmer, more natural, and healthier. What I love most is how natural the results are — it doesn’t look like I’ve had anything done, just like my skin has improved beautifully. The results also appeared very quickly, which was amazing. A special thank you to Aisha, who carried out my treatment. She was incredibly thorough and clearly put a lot of care and effort into treating every area of concern. On top of that, she gave me very helpful advice about how to look after my skin — something no other clinic has ever taken the time to do for me. Even small touches, like being offered tea, made the whole experience feel welcoming and relaxing. I truly appreciate the care, professionalism, and genuine approach here. I will definitely be coming back and continuing my treatments, and I highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for high-quality service and real results.
