PDO Thread Lifts in Tarzana for Mild Skin Laxity

A PDO thread lift is a non-surgical treatment that uses absorbable sutures placed beneath the skin to create a subtle lift and support firmer-looking skin. NovaThreads are made from polydioxanone, also called PDO, a material commonly used in medical sutures.

At Glow Aesthetic Center in Tarzana, NovaThread PDO Thread Face Lift treatment is planned around your facial structure, skin laxity, and desired level of lift. We look at the cheeks, brows, jawline, jowls, and neck to decide where threads may be useful.

This treatment may help mild to moderate sagging, but it does not replace a surgical facelift for advanced laxity.

How PDO Threads Work

PDO threads are placed under the skin using a fine cannula. Once positioned, the threads create immediate mechanical support in selected areas. Some thread types are made to lift, while others are used to support collagen activity and improve the look of skin quality.

The threads gradually dissolve over several months through a natural breakdown process. As they dissolve, the body responds around the treated area by supporting collagen production. Collagen helps skin look firmer, smoother, and more supported.

Some lift may be visible right away, especially in areas treated with lifting threads. Skin firmness and texture may continue to improve over the following weeks.

Areas We Treat with NovaThreads at Glow Aesthetic Center

NovaThread PDO thread lift treatment can be used in several areas where mild sagging or loss of support has changed facial shape. Your provider will confirm the right areas during consultation.

Cheeks

PDO threads may help lift mild cheek sagging and support a softer midface contour. Cheek treatment can also improve how the lower face appears by adding support higher on the face.

Jowls

Jowls can develop as skin support changes along the jawline. Lifting threads may help soften early jowling and create a cleaner lower-face outline.

Brows

A subtle brow lift may help open the eye area when mild brow heaviness is present. This treatment is planned carefully so the result stays natural.

Neck

PDO threads may be used for mild neck laxity or vertical banding when the skin needs support. More advanced neck looseness may require another treatment approach.

Jawline

Thread placement along the jawline can help improve definition when mild laxity has blurred the lower-face contour.

Types of PDO Threads

Different PDO threads serve different treatment goals, so your provider may use one type or a combination. The right choice depends on the area being treated and the level of lift or collagen support needed.

Barb Threads

Barb threads have small anchors that grip tissue and provide lift. These threads are often used for areas such as the cheeks, jowls, and jawline where support and repositioning are the main goals.

Smooth Threads

Smooth threads do not provide the same lifting effect as barbed threads. They are often used to support collagen activity and improve the look of fine lines, texture, or thin-looking skin.

Twist Threads

Twist threads are coiled or intertwined to provide subtle volume support in selected areas. They may be discussed when the goal is soft tissue support rather than a stronger lift.

Benefits of PDO Thread Face Lift Treatment in Tarzana

PDO thread face lift treatment can be a good option for patients in Tarzana who want a lifted look without surgery. Potential benefits include:

• Lifts mild to moderate sagging in selected areas of the face or neck.
• Supports collagen activity as the threads dissolve over time.
• Improves the look of early jowls, cheek descent, and softened jawline definition.
• Uses absorbable PDO sutures that gradually break down in the body.
• Offers a non-surgical approach with less recovery than facelift surgery.
• Can be customized with different thread types and placement patterns.

A careful plan keeps the result balanced. Your provider will recommend the thread type, count, and placement based on your facial anatomy.

Your NovaThread Appointment at Glow Aesthetic Center, Tarzana

Here is what you can expect from your NovaThread PDO thread facelift at Glow Aesthetic Center in Tarzana.

Consultation

Your visit begins with a discussion about your concerns, treatment history, medical history, medications, allergies, skin laxity, and upcoming events. Your provider will assess your face at rest and during expression to decide if PDO threads are suitable.

Treatment Planning

Your provider will map the treatment areas and explain where threads may be placed. We will discuss expected lift, collagen support, downtime, and aftercare.

Numbing and Preparation

The treatment area is cleansed before placement. Local numbing may be used to improve comfort. Your provider will make sure the skin is prepared, and the placement plan is clear before starting.

Thread Placement

A fine cannula is used to place the thread beneath the skin. Once the thread is positioned, the cannula is removed, and the thread remains under the skin. You may feel pressure, pulling, or tightness during placement.

Results and Recovery

You may notice an early lifted look right after treatment. Mild swelling, bruising, soreness, tightness, or dimpling can happen.

Who Is a Good Candidate for PDO Thread Lift

PDO thread lift treatment may be suitable for healthy adults with mild to moderate skin laxity who want a non-surgical lift. A consultation is needed because thread lifts work best when the skin still has enough elasticity to respond.

Some patients may get better results from filler, skin tightening, neuromodulators, or a combined plan.

Planning Your PDO Thread Results

Plan your NovaThread PDO thread face lift several weeks before photos, travel, or a major event. Bruising, swelling, tenderness, or temporary skin irregularity can happen, and the area needs time to settle.

Results vary by thread type, placement, skin quality, age, lifestyle, and degree of laxity. Some lift can appear right away, while collagen support develops gradually. Many patients notice ongoing improvement over the following weeks.

Maintenance timing varies. PDO threads dissolve over several months, but collagen support may last longer. Your provider may recommend maintenance treatments or a combined plan to support your result.

Aftercare After NovaThread PDO Threads

Aftercare helps protect thread placement while the area settles. Your provider will give instructions based on the areas treated.

Avoid rubbing, massaging, or applying firm pressure to the treated areas. Sleep on your back with your head elevated for the first few nights if possible. Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, hot tubs, facial massage, dental work, wide chewing movements, smoking, and drinking through a straw for the timeframe recommended by your provider. Contact Glow Aesthetic Center if you notice severe pain, unusual swelling, skin color changes, or symptoms that concern you.
