PDO threads offer a gentle, nonsurgical way to lift and tighten many areas of the face and neck without needing to go under the knife. At Arlani Integrative Medicine & Medspa in Murray, Utah, patients from Salt Lake City, Draper, and surrounding communities choose this treatment to refresh their appearance with natural-looking results and minimal downtime. PDO threads strengthen the skin from within, improve facial contours, and support collagen production for longer-lasting improvements.

How PDO Threads Work
PDO threads are made from polydioxanone, a safe and absorbable material used for medical sutures for many years.
Our specialists expertly inject these fine threads beneath the skin in areas where you’ve lost volume and firmness.
The threads create gentle, controlled tension beneath the skin. This activates your body’s natural healing response and boosts new collagen production around the threads.
Over time, the collagen builds on the threads to improve texture, structure, and elasticity. Although the threads dissolve over the following months, the new collagen framework remains, giving you continued improvements.
PDO threads offer both immediate and gradual benefits. After placement, the area may look subtly lifted. As collagen continues to build over the following months, the skin continues to improve. This makes PDO threads a practical option for patients who want meaningful results without surgery or extensive recovery time.
Areas Commonly Treated With PDO Threads
PDO threads can target wrinkles, volume loss, skin sagging, and other concerns of aging skin.

Your specialist at Arlani Integrative Medicine & Medspa will help you choose the approach that best supports your goals, whether you want to soften deeper lines, improve laxity, or restore more definition to the lower face or neck.

What to Expect During PDO Threads Treatment
Your visit begins with a consultation to discuss your goals and evaluate the areas you want to enhance. Our experts at Arlani Integrative Medicine & Medspa use a patient-centered approach that considers your overall well-being and lifestyle to guide your treatment plan.
Your specialist administers local anesthesia, usually both a topical numbing cream and injectable lidocaine, to keep you comfortable during the procedure. It’s normal to feel some pressure, but most patients tolerate the procedure well. The process usually takes less than an hour, but treatment time can vary based on the number of threads and treatment areas.
