Aging is a privilege—but that doesn’t mean we have to accept sagging skin, fine lines, and crepey texture without a fight. If you’ve been searching for a non-surgical solution to restore firmness, smoothness, and that fresh, radiant glow, it’s time to talk about smooth PDO threads.
Forget the pain and recovery of a facelift—this is all about impactful yet natural-looking rejuvenation. Think of smooth threads as your skin’s little collagen cheerleaders, encouraging it to tighten, lift, and glow from the inside out.
What Are Smooth PDO Threads?
Smooth PDO threads are dissolvable sutures placed just under the skin to stimulate collagen production and improve skin firmness and texture over time. Unlike barbed threads used to lift sagging skin, smooth threads work like tiny scaffolding, strengthening and supporting your skin’s structure without adding volume.
They don’t change your facial shape like dermal fillers do—instead, they help your skin bounce back, stay tight, and glow naturally. It’s like an invisible skin-tightening boost that works behind the scenes, fighting the loss of collagen.

The Benefits of Smooth PDO Threads (Why You’ll Love Them)
1. Kickstarts Your Skin’s Collagen Factory
We all know collagen production slows down as we age—1% each year to be exact—leading to fine lines, loss of elasticity, and dullness. Smooth PDO threads wake up your skin’s collagen and tell it to get to work for firmer, tighter, and more youthful skin over time.
2. Smooths Lines & Wrinkles Without Freezing Muscle
If you want to soften lip lines, marionette lines, smile lines, and even those dreaded necklace lines without losing movement, smooth threads are your new best friend. They work beneath the skin to refine texture without relaxing muscles like Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin. This is particularly effective for static wrinkles which cannot be treated by tox injections.
3. Tightens Skin Without Adding Volume
Love your natural features but want a little extra firmness? Unlike fillers, smooth PDO threads don’t plump or change your face shape. Instead, they tighten crepey skin, refine skin texture, and restore elasticity, making them the perfect option for bit of skin laxity in the cheeks, jawline, or neck.
4. Minimal Downtime, Maximum Results
Life is busy, and let’s be honest—who has time for a long recovery? Smooth PDO threads give you noticeable skin improvement with little to no downtime. You might experience mild swelling or risk of bruising, but you can go back to your normal activities the same day while natural collagen production ramps up and the results reveal over time.
5. Works Beautifully With Other Skin Treatments
Want even better results? Pair smooth threads with other aesthetic treatments like radiofrequency, microneedling, or lasers for the ultimate collagen-stimulating effects. They all work together to lift, tighten, and smooth your skin for long-lasting skin enhancement results.
How Do Barbed PDO Threads Compare?
While smooth PDO threads focus on collagen production and skin texture, barbed PDO threads are designed to physically lift and reposition sagging skin. These threads have tiny barbs or hooks that anchor into the skin tissue, helping to redefine jawlines, cheeks, and jowls while reducing skin laxity.
At Vitality Women’s Healthcare, we use MINT PDO threads, an industry-leading brand known for long-lasting results and superior lifting power.
Our selection includes:
- FINE+ – Ideal for collagen stimulation and fine lines
- PETIT+ – Designed for structural support in delicate areas
- FIX – Used for lifting sagging skin in areas like the jawline and cheeks
Both smooth and barbed threads can be used alone or combined to customize your results. Whether you want subtle skin tightening or a more defined facial contour, our expert providers can create the perfect thread treatment plan for your goals
What to Expect: The Process (Hint: It’s Easier Than You Think!)
- The Consultation: We will discuss your skin concerns, review your medical history, and customize a treatment plan based on your skin laxity and desired results.
- The Procedure: The entire process takes about 30-45 minutes. A numbing cream is applied, then the dissolvable suture threads are placed under the skin using a fine needle.
- The Healing: Mild swelling or temporary nerve irritation may occur, but most patients go back to their daily routine immediately. Results improve over the next 2-3 months as collagen production increases.
- The Results: Tighter, smoother skin that looks like you’ve been getting amazing sleep, taking your vitamins, and stressing less (without actually changing your routine).
