Threads are made of absorbable materials including poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA). polydioxanone (PDO). polyglycolic acid (PGA), and poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). These are chemically similar to sugar, which is why they're often referred to as "sugar threads". PDO is an FDA-approved suture material that has been used in cardiothoracic surgery for the past 30 years.
A PDO thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure where temporary sutures are placed under the skin for an instant lift. PDO threads are newer treatments in the world of aesthetics, and have gained traction for their great, facelift-like results.
