THREAD LIFT TREATMENT
Non-Surgical Face & Body Lifting
At Belle Clinic – Laser & Aesthetics, our PDO Thread Lift offers an advanced, minimally invasive way to lift, contour, and rejuvenate the skin without surgery. Using premium PDO lifting threads, we can restore structure to key areas of the face and body while stimulating collagen for long-lasting, natural-looking results.
If you’re experiencing sagging, early jowling, drooping cheeks, or loss of definition, a Thread Lift provides a powerful yet subtle rejuvenation with minimal downtime.
Interesting Facts About PDO Thread
Lift
- PDO threads dissolve naturally within approximately 6–9 months, but the collagen they stimulate can continue improving the skin for 12–18 months.
- Results come in two stages: an immediate lifting effect followed by gradual skin tightening as new collagen forms over the next 2–3 months.
- PDO stands for Polydioxanone, a medical-grade material that has been safely used in surgery for decades.
- A PDO Thread Lift can improve jawlines, jowls, cheeks, eyebrows, neck, and under the chin without surgery.
- Mono threads don’t lift tissue but are excellent for skin rejuvenation, fine lines, and improving skin quality by stimulating collagen.
- Cog threads contain tiny barbs that grip tissue to provide a mechanical lifting effect.
- The treatment is usually completed in 30–60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated.
- Most people return to work within 24–48 hours, although mild swelling or bruising can occur.
- PDO threads can be combined with treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, skin boosters, RF microneedling, or HIFU for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
- The procedure does not stop ageing, but it can help restore a more youthful facial contour and delay the need for surgical intervention in suitable candidates.
What Is a Thread Lift?
A Thread Lift is a non-surgical facelift technique that uses PDO lifting threads to reposition sagging skin, define facial contours, and reshape key areas such as the jawline, midface, and brows. The threads contain bio-compatible fibres—typically polydioxanone (PDO)—which safely dissolve over time while stimulating collagen production.
- Jowls
- Midface sagging
- Drooping cheeks
- Brow ptosis
- Nasolabial folds
- Marionette lines
- Neck laxity
- At Belle Clinic, every Thread Lift is tailored to your facial structure, ensuring a balanced, natural enhancement that complements your own features.
Treatment Overview
Our Thread Lift treatment is performed by highly experienced aesthetic practitioners who specialise in facial rejuvenation and non-surgical lifting techniques. This makes the procedure a safe and effective option for reversing the early signs of ageing.
How Thread Lifts Work
PDO lifting threads are inserted beneath the skin using a fine cannula. The tiny barbs on the threads anchor gently into the tissue, creating an instant lift. Over the following months, the threads stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, enhancing:
- Skin firmness
- Elasticity
- Structure
- Smoothness
- Lift longevity

The Triangle of Youth – Restoring Facial Balance
As we age, the natural “triangle of youth” begins to invert due to reduced volume and declining support. With PDO threads, we restore:
- High cheekbones
- Defined jawline
- Midface support
- This helps reverse the sagging and heaviness that creates a tired appearance.

How the Thread Lift Works?
How the Thread Lift Works
A PDO Thread Lift is a minimally invasive treatment that lifts and supports sagging skin using dissolvable medical-grade threads. After a consultation, the treatment area is cleansed and a local anaesthetic is applied to maximise comfort.
The practitioner carefully inserts the PDO threads beneath the skin using a fine cannula or needle. Once positioned, the threads are gently adjusted to lift and reposition the tissue, creating an immediate lifting effect.
Over the following weeks, the threads stimulate your body’s natural collagen and elastin production. This helps improve skin firmness, elasticity, and texture while maintaining a natural-looking result. The threads gradually dissolve over several months, but the newly formed collagen continues to support the skin, with results typically lasting 12–18 months, depending on the individual and the type of threads used.
When Will I See Results?
The results continue to improve for up to a year as the threads encourage ongoing tissue regeneration.
