If you’re starting to notice sagging skin, a soft jawline, or facial “droop,” but you’re not ready for surgery, PDO threads can be a powerful middle ground. This in-office treatment is designed to lift and support the skin while encouraging collagen for a firmer, more refreshed look over time. At Vida Aesthetics & Wellness, we personalize your plan so that results look natural, not overdone, while fitting your lifestyle in Houston.
These are dissolvable threads placed just under the skin to create a subtle lift and support. Many patients choose this when they want visible improvement in laxity and contour without the downtime and commitment of a surgical procedure.
A common term you’ll hear is PDO thread lift, which refers to the technique of strategically placing threads to elevate targeted areas and improve facial structure. The threads dissolve naturally over time, but the collagen support can continue after the threads are gone.
Patients choose this because they can:
If you want a non-surgical facelift that focuses on lift and structure rather than volume alone, it may be a great fit.
It works in two ways:

To compare these two, think lift vs. volume. Threads lift and support the structure, while fillers restore volume. We’ll recommend the best option based on your anatomy and goals.
Many patients choose a jawline thread lift to improve definition, reduce the appearance of mild jowling, and create a more contoured lower face.
