Non-Surgical Facelift & PDO Threads in Fresno, CA
Lift, tighten, and contour — without surgery or extended downtime.
At Cyrus Cosmetics Fresno, PDO thread lifts offer a sophisticated, non-surgical facelift option. Using dissolvable threads placed beneath the skin, we gently lift and support lax tissue, stimulate collagen, and refine facial contours for a refreshed, more youthful look.
Whether you want a crisper jawline, lifted cheeks, or improvement in lower-face sagging, our nurse practitioner–led team customizes your PDO thread treatment to your anatomy and goals.
What Are PDO Threads?
PDO (polydioxanone) threads are dissolvable sutures that have been safely used in medicine for decades. In aesthetics, we place these threads under the skin using a fine needle or cannula to gently lift and support sagging tissue. The threads provide an immediate mechanical lift while also stimulating collagen production for long-lasting firmness and improved skin texture.
Over several months, your body gradually absorbs the threads and replaces them with new collagen, leaving you with a smoother, tighter, more defined appearance even after the threads are gone.
Where PDO Threads Lift & Contour Best
Sharpen the jawline, reduce early jowling, and create a cleaner lower-face profile.
Lift descended cheek tissue for a more youthful, heart-shaped contour.
Support the mid-face and soften folds around the mouth.
Provide a subtle brow lift and open the eye area for a more rested look.
Improve mild laxity and early “creping” in the neck region.
Twist threads can restore delicate volume under the eyes or around the lips when appropriate.

What Are PDO Threads? A Non-Surgical Lift Solution in Medical Spas
PDO (Polydioxanone) Threads are an innovative, non-surgical treatment offered in medical spas to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate sagging or aging skin. This procedure uses dissolvable threads made from a biocompatible material that has been safely used in surgical sutures for decades. Inserted under the skin using a fine needle or cannula, PDO threads provide an immediate lifting effect and stimulate the body’s natural collagen production for longer-lasting firmness and improved skin texture.
PDO Thread Lifting is especially popular for patients who want a subtle, refreshed appearance without going under the knife. Common treatment areas include the jawline, cheeks, neck, eyebrows, and nasolabial folds. By physically repositioning loose tissue, the threads help redefine facial contours and restore youthful volume. Over time, the body absorbs the threads and replaces them with new collagen, maintaining results for up to 12–18 months.
There are different types of PDO threads used depending on the goal: barbed threads provide stronger lifting for sagging skin, smooth threads enhance collagen stimulation and skin texture, and twist threads are used to restore volume in delicate areas like under the eyes or around the mouth. The procedure is minimally invasive, requires little downtime, and is often completed in under an hour.
Many patients appreciate PDO threads for their natural-looking results and gradual improvement over time. This treatment is ideal for individuals in their 30s to 60s looking for a refreshed, firmer appearance without the risks or recovery time associated with traditional facelifts.
In a medical spa setting, PDO thread treatments are typically performed by trained medical professionals who evaluate facial structure and aesthetic goals to develop a custom treatment plan. Combined with other procedures like dermal fillers or neuromodulators, PDO threads can be part of a comprehensive facial rejuvenation strategy.
