PDO Threads in Fresno, CA

Skin laxity doesn’t happen all at once—it develops gradually as collagen production slows and structural support weakens. PDO threads offer a minimally invasive option to lift, support, and improve skin firmness without surgery. At SaileeNG Aesthetics, PDO thread treatments in Fresno are designed to enhance facial structure while maintaining a natural look.

What Are PDO Threads?

PDO (polydioxanone) threads are biocompatible, dissolvable sutures placed beneath the skin to provide support and stimulation. Once inserted, the threads help reposition tissue and encourage collagen production as they naturally dissolve over time.

PDO threads do not replace surgery, but they can offer subtle lifting and tightening for the right candidate.

What PDO Threads Can Address

PDO threads are commonly used to improve:

• Mild to moderate skin laxity
• Jawline and lower face definition
• Cheek support
• Nasolabial folds and marionette lines
• Neck and early jowling

Treatment areas are selected based on skin quality, facial anatomy, and individual goals.

What to Expect

Before Treatment

You may be advised to avoid certain medications or supplements before your appointment. A consultation helps determine whether PDO threads are appropriate for your skin concerns.

During Treatment

Threads are placed beneath the skin using fine needles or cannulas. The procedure typically takes under an hour, depending on the number of threads used.

After Treatment

Mild swelling, tenderness, or tightness is common and usually temporary. Some clients notice immediate lifting, with continued improvement as collagen develops over time.

How Long Do Results Last?

PDO threads gradually dissolve over several months. While the threads themselves disappear, the collagen they stimulate can help support longer-lasting improvements in skin firmness and structure.

PDO Threads vs. Fillers and Surgery

PDO threads lift and support tissue, while fillers restore volume and neuromodulators relax muscles. Surgical procedures offer more dramatic results but require longer recovery. Threads may be used alone or combined with other treatments depending on your goals.
