What Areas Can PDO Threads Treat?

If you want to boost mid-face volume or sharpen your features without seeming “too filled,” PDO threads could be a great option. These absorbable threads are placed beneath the skin to support areas that are starting to droop — helping you appear refreshed while still looking like you.

PDO threads are available at NeoMed Spa in Temecula, CA. The treatment is overseen by Dr. Mehrdad Soleimani, a board-certified physician, medical director, and associate clinical professor who’s known for science-backed care and natural-looking outcomes.

In this guide, you’ll learn what areas PDO threads can treat and what concerns they’re best suited for. 

What Are PDO Threads?

PDO threads are made from polydioxanone, a material that has been used in medical sutures for decades. Once placed, they can create a gentle lifting effect, and as the threads dissolve, they may promote collagen production over time.

What Areas Can PDO Threads Treat?

PDO threads are commonly used in facial regions where skin laxity first develops. Here are the most popular treatment zones:

  • Cheeks: Threads can improve mild sagging and restore a more “lifted” cheek contour. They create a perkier appearance without adding noticeable volume.
  • Jawline: Do you have softness along the lower face and want more definition? Threads provide a cleaner, more structured profile in photos and real life.
  • Jowls: PDO threads help reduce that “pulled downward” look near the corners of the mouth. They can also smooth the lower face and promote more balance.
  • Nasolabial folds: Threads support the surrounding tissue and soften smile lines. This approach focuses on subtle reinforcement rather than directly “filling in” the lines.
  • Marionette lines: If you want to target lines that form from the corners of the mouth toward the chin, threads can be a good choice. Treating this location can reduce a tired or downturned expression.
  • Brow: Threads in the brow can open up the eye area and provide a subtle lift as heaviness begins to set in.
  • Neck: If you want to address mild neck laxity and improve the appearance of crepey skin, consider threads.
