Exquisite Elevation
PDO Thread Lift at Azalea MedSpa
A polydioxanone (PDO) thread lift offers state-of-the-art lifting of the skin of the face without the need for open surgery. At Azalea MedSpa in Lenexa thread lifts may be performed on the skin and tissues around the eyes, cheeks, jaw, or neck.

A thread lift may be combined with skin rejuvenation treatments for maximum lifting, tightening, and smoothing.
Tensile Technology
What is a PDO thread lift?
A PDO thread lift is a type of “non-surgical facelift” in which a thin biocompatible filament is inserted using a narrow cannula and used to draw underlying tissues of the face upward. The absorbable suture, which is placed during a brief in-office procedure, also helps stimulate collagen production to tighten and lift the skin from within. At Azalea Med Spa in Lenexa PDO Thread Lifts typically only takes around 45 minutes and can be performed using a local anesthetic.

A Quick Procedure
Your PDO Thread Lift Procedure
At your initial consultation, you may be asked to refrain from taking certain medications or supplements in the days leading up to your procedure. When you arrive, you will recline in a comfortable treatment chair. Your Lenexa PDO Thread Lift provider will cleanse the procedure area and treat it with a local anesthetic. The thread is inserted using a narrow surgical cannula and drawn carefully through the tissue beneath the skin before being anchored into place. Because this is a minimally invasive procedure that does not require general anesthesia, you will be able to return home shortly after your procedure.
Immediate Tightening
PDO Thread Lift Results
You should be able to see the lifting and tightening provided by the PDO thread immediately following your procedure. Many patients see results lasting for a year or more, and a few have seen results lasting even longer. The length of time the PDO thread lift continues to demonstrate lifting of facial tissues may depend on a patient’s age, with younger patients typically retaining their outcomes for a bit more time.
