PDO Thread Options
PDO thread treatments are minimally invasive and typically involve only a short recovery period. Your practitioner will discuss what to expect during your consultation
Thread lift treatments, such as cog threads, are a minimally invasive option used to support facial tissue and encourage a refreshed appearance without the need for surgery. Your suitability and expected outcomes will be assessed during a personalised consultation.
An added benefit of this treatment is that outcomes are typically subtle and gradual, which some clients prefer for a more discreet result. Cog threads are placed beneath the skin to provide structural support, this can contribute to an immediately firmer appearance. Individual results and treatment plans will be discussed during your consultation
PDO threads are designed to stimulate collagen production over time, which may support a smoother, more revitalised appearance.
While some initial changes may be visible, further improvements typically appear over time as the body’s natural collagen response is stimulated in the areas where threads are placed. This process may help improve skin firmness and structure gradually.
The threads are safely absorbed over approximately six to eight months, with the effects of collagen support potentially lasting beyond this period. Individual outcomes vary and will be assessed during your consultation.
To support optimal skin condition prior to thread placement, many clients benefit from preparing the skin with treatments such as MicroNeedling and Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF). This approach may assist with overall skin texture and tone, especially in tired or dull skin types.
Cog threads are considered a minimally invasive option and are often chosen by individuals seeking subtle, natural-looking enhancement. Downtime is typically minimal, though recovery can vary depending on individual factors.
Brow Lift
A PDO cog thread brow lift is a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure designed to support and reposition the skin in the brow area. Using local anaesthesia and a fine entry point, cog threads are placed beneath the skin to help provide structural support with minimal disruption. Recovery is generally brief, and most clients can return to their usual activities shortly afterward, depending on individual response.
One of the benefits of cog threads is their ability to provide a subtle, immediate lifting effect in the treated area. The barbed structure of the threads helps to hold the underlying tissue in a supported position. While outcomes vary, many clients appreciate the natural-looking enhancement and gradual improvement that may follow. In addition to their mechanical support, PDO threads are designed to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production over time.
As the threads gradually dissolve, typically over several months, this collagen activity may help improve skin structure, firmness, and texture. The degree and duration of results will vary from person to person and will be discussed during your consultation.
Neck Lift
PDO cog threads can be used in the lower face and neck area to gently support tissue and improve skin structure. These absorbable threads are placed beneath the surface of the skin using a fine entry point, offering a low-impact option for those seeking subtle enhancement without surgery.
The treatment is typically performed under local anaesthetic and involves minimal disruption to surrounding tissue. Many clients appreciate the shorter downtime associated with this technique, though recovery experiences can vary.
In addition to the immediate structural support offered by the threads, the body’s natural healing response may be stimulated, encouraging gradual collagen production in the treated area. This process may assist with skin firmness and overall texture in the weeks and months following the procedure.

Thread lift procedures are designed to support facial tissue and may offer a subtle lifting effect with minimal disruption to the skin’s surface. In addition to this, the threads are intended to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, which may contribute to improved skin structure and texture over time. Results vary between individuals, and effects may last several months or longer, depending on personal factors and treatment goals.
Some bruising may occur after a thread lift, as is possible with any procedure involving the skin. Each individual responds differently, and the extent and duration of bruising can vary.
Your practitioner can offer guidance on general measures that may support your recovery. If bruising does occur, it often improves gradually over the days following treatment, depending on individual healing responses.
