PDO THREADS

PDO Threads

PDO thread treatments are a non-surgical solution designed to lift and tighten sagging skin while stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. Over time, collagen loss leads to skin laxity, softening of facial contours, and drooping in areas like the jawline, cheeks, and neck.

PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are dissolvable sutures placed strategically beneath the skin to gently reposition tissue and create an immediate lifting effect. As the threads dissolve naturally over time, they stimulate collagen production — helping your skin look firmer, smoother, and more youthful long after treatment.

At B.Edit MedSpa, we specialize in subtle, refined lifting that enhances your natural beauty — never overdone, never artificial.
