Experience expert PDO thread lift treatment in London at Harley Street Medics. A non-surgical solution to lift sagging skin, redefine contours, and restore youthful structure — with natural results and minimal downtime.
PDO thread lift provides a gentle, effective solution to loose or sagging skin without the higher cost and longer recovery time associated with surgical facelifts. This groundbreaking approach to facial rejuvenation has gained immense popularity in London, particularly in the prestigious Harley Street medical district, where innovation meets excellence in aesthetic medicine.
The treatment utilizes Polydioxanone (PDO) threads – biodegradable, absorbable, and non-allergenic sutures that are carefully implanted beneath the skin. These medical-grade threads have been used safely in surgical procedures for decades, making them a trusted option for facial rejuvenation.
At our Harley Street clinic, we offer various types of PDO threads to address different aesthetic concerns:
These smooth threads are ideal for improving skin texture and stimulating collagen production. They don’t provide significant lifting but excel at skin rejuvenation and are perfect for areas like the neck, décolletage, and around the eyes.
These threads feature tiny barbs or cogs that anchor to the tissue, providing more substantial lifting capabilities. They’re excellent for lifting the midface, jowls, and brows, creating more dramatic yet natural-looking results.
These specialized threads are designed to restore volume in hollow areas of the face while providing moderate lifting effects, making them versatile options for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
The longevity of a PDO thread lift varies, with the threads dissolving within 4 to 6 months. However, the collagen stimulation they induce can extend the visible effects for up to 18 months. Factors like age, skin condition, and thread type influence how long the results last.
PDO thread lifts are remarkably versatile, addressing multiple areas of concern across the face and neck:
The midface is particularly susceptible to volume loss and descent due to weakening ligaments and fat pad atrophy. Using cog threads anchored along the zygomatic arch, we lift sagging malar fat pads and soften nasolabial folds.
Jowl formation stems from skin laxity and platysma muscle weakening. Our Harley Street specialists deploy barbed threads along the mandibular angle in a crisscross pattern, mechanically repositioning sagging tissue while inducing fibrotic tissue formation for structural support.
Brow ptosis (drooping) is addressed using monofilament screw threads inserted into the temporal region. By anchoring threads to the deep temporal fascia, we lift the lateral brow by 2–3 mm, reducing hooded eyelids and forehead wrinkles.
The neck’s thin skin and reduced collagen density make it prone to horizontal rhytides (neck bands) and crepey texture. Mono threads are deployed in a grid-like pattern within the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS), inducing collagen synthesis to thicken the dermis.
These folds result from fat pad descent and repetitive muscle motion. Our “Reverse Technique” uses cog threads inserted perpendicular to the folds, creating a scaffolding effect that redistributes tissue upward.
At our Harley Street Clinic, we’ve refined the PDO thread lift procedure to ensure maximum comfort, safety, and results for our London clients.
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with one of our experienced aesthetic specialists. We’ll evaluate your skin condition, discuss your goals, and determine if you’re an ideal candidate for PDO thread lifts.
On the day of your procedure, we’ll cleanse your skin thoroughly and apply a topical numbing cream. Local anesthesia is then administered to ensure your complete comfort throughout the treatment.
Using precise techniques, our specialists will insert the PDO threads beneath your skin through tiny entry points. The threads are carefully positioned along predetermined vectors to achieve optimal lifting and contouring effects.
The threads are gently anchored into place, with our specialists making careful adjustments to ensure natural-looking symmetry and the desired lifting effect.
We’ll evaluate the immediate results, making any necessary refinements to ensure you leave our Harley Street clinic looking refreshed and naturally rejuvenated.
The entire procedure typically takes between 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the areas being treated.

PDO thread lift offers numerous advantages that have made them increasingly popular among our London clients:
Unlike surgical facelifts, PDO thread lifts don’t require large incisions, general anesthesia, or lengthy hospital stays.
The gradual lifting and regenerative effects produce results that look natural rather than overly tight or “worked on”.
Most clients return to their normal activities within 1-3 days, making PDO thread lifts ideal for busy London professionals.
The procedure can be tailored to address your specific concerns, with the flexibility to treat multiple areas in a single session.
While you’ll see immediate lifting effects, the stimulation of collagen production means your results continue to improve over time.
PDO thread lifts work excellently alongside other aesthetic treatments like dermal fillers or Botox for comprehensive rejuvenation.

You may experience mild swelling, bruising, or tightness in the treated area. These effects are temporary and usually subside within a few days.
The procedure involves minimal discomfort, as a local anaesthetic is applied before insertion. Most patients report only a slight pulling sensation.
Use cold compresses, sleep with your head elevated, and avoid strenuous activity for the first 24–48 hours to minimise swelling.
Avoid heavy exercise, facial massages, and exaggerated facial movements for at least a week. Sleeping on your back is also recommended.
A PDO thread lift offers a non-surgical lift but won’t replace the results of a full surgical facelift. It’s ideal for mild to moderate sagging.
You’ll notice an immediate lift, with full results developing over 2–4 weeks as collagen production increases.
Yes. When performed by trained professionals, PDO thread lifts are considered safe with minimal risks and downtime.
