If you’re feeling less-than-confident about sagging skin or noticing that your reflection doesn’t quite match how vibrant you feel inside, you’re not alone. Aging happens to us all — and those changes leave many wishing for a gentle, effective way to restore a more lifted, youthful look. PDO threads offer a non-surgical solution that works with your body’s natural processes to rejuvenate your appearance, helping you feel radiant and refreshed without the downtime of surgery.
It’s about rediscovering your version of yourself: The one that makes you smile when you look in the mirror. Dr. Sharon Smith understands and is passionate about helping women feel and look their best. Dr. Sharon leads the way in advanced aesthetic and wellness care in her Houston, TX, medical practice. As a highly trained OB/GYN with over 15 years of experience, and additional post-graduate training in aesthetic procedures like PDO thread lifts, Dr. Smith brings a unique combination of medical expertise and artistry to every treatment. Her expertise with PDO thread lifts offers a minimally invasive, transformative solution for aging skin.
What is a PDO Thread Lift?
PDO threads can lift, smooth, tighten, and rejuvenate the appearance of sagging skin. The threads used in this procedure are made of polydioxanone (PDO), similar to what surgeons use for dissolvable internal sutures. The PDO threads attach to the skin’s deeper layers and can hold the skin in a new, more elevated position.
The threads work within the skin dermis to trigger a renewal process: Your body reacts to the thread by making collagen (for skin volume) and elastin (for skin elasticity and tightness.) Although the PDO threads gradually dissolve, the new collagen and elastin built around them remains. This gives you long-lasting results that look very natural.
The PDO Thread Lift Process
Dr. Sharon expertly guides the PDO threads into the skin through a thin, hollow needle. She positions the threads based on the correction you desire. This may include precisely inserting threads to achieve:
- Lifted cheeks
- Smoothed jowls
- Smoothed smile lines
- Elevated eyebrows
- Smoothed undereye area
- Sharper jawline
- Smoothed neck
- Increased chin definition
Although the face is the most popular treatment area for PDO threads, Dr. Sharon can also place threads in other areas with sagging skin, for example, the abdomen, thighs, or upper arms. This office-based treatment usually takes about an hour or less. You’ll see immediate results, which improve over the coming months as your body makes fresh collagen and elastin.
In the hands of Dr. Sharon — a highly skilled medical doctor with extensive training — you can expect beautiful, natural results that complement your unique facial anatomy.
