What Are PDO Threads?
At Arijai Aesthetics, we believe subtle enhancements can restore confidence and highlight the beauty you already have. Our aesthetic care team offers PDO threads, a nonsurgical approach that gently lifts and tightens skin for a refreshed, natural look without surgery. These threads are made of polydioxanone, a material that naturally dissolves into the body over time. They are gently placed under the skin to create a support structure that lifts and smooths. PDO threads for the face and neck are popular treatments to improve areas like the cheeks, jawline, and neck. This safe and effective treatment can restore firmness and a more youthful contour. The team at Arijai Aesthetics is ready to help you discover the benefits of PDO threads. Schedule your consultation at our San Antonio location today.
How Do PDO Threads Work?
Once placed under the skin, PDO threads lift the tissues right away. They stimulate collagen production, helping the skin grow stronger and look smoother over time. The results of a PDO threads lift are immediate and continue to improve as your body produces more collagen. Typically, PDO threads last about 12 to 18 months depending on your skin condition and care habits. Maintenance treatments can extend the beauty of your PDO threads face lift or neck lift, keeping you looking fresh and vibrant.
What Can I Expect After PDO Threads?
After a PDO thread treatment, you might experience some mild swelling, bruising, or soreness in the treated areas. These side effects are normal and usually go away within a few days. We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise and excessive facial movements for about a week to allow the threads to settle properly. Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and the best possible results. You can typically return to your normal daily activities right after the procedure, with minimal downtime required.
What Are the Benefits of PDO Threads?

- Lifts sagging skin on the face, jawline, and neck

Am I A Candidate for PDO Threads?
If you're considering a nonsurgical solution to address mild to moderate skin laxity, a PDO thread lift at Arijai Aesthetics in San Antonio might be the right option for you. Ideal candidates are typically in their 30s to 60s and seek to enhance facial contours, such as lifting sagging cheeks, defining the jawline, or tightening the neck area, without undergoing invasive surgery. This treatment is especially suitable for individuals with good skin elasticity who desire subtle, natural-looking results and have realistic expectations about the outcomes. However, those with significant skin laxity or certain medical conditions may require alternative treatments. A personalized consultation with our experienced team will help determine if PDO threads align with your aesthetic goals and skin condition.

Is the PDO thread procedure painful?
Discomfort is minimal. A local anesthetic is used to numb the treatment area, and patients often describe the sensation as pressure or mild pulling. Most people tolerate the procedure well and report little to no pain afterward.
How many threads will I need?
The number of threads required depends on your treatment area and desired outcome. Some procedures may require just a few threads, while others may need several. During your consultation, your provider will create a customized plan.
How soon after PDO threads can I wear makeup?
You can typically wear makeup within 24 hours after the procedure, once any puncture points have closed. Use gentle, non-comedogenic products and avoid excessive pressure when applying.
