⸺ Three core skills
What you'll walk away with
The course is structured around three core skills every provider needs to confidently offer PDO Thread Lifts.
01
Patient Evaluation
Know who is a great candidate, which contraindications to screen for, and which biologics to combine with threads for each patient type. Avoid the most common selection mistakes.
02
Thread Lift Techniques
Know which threads to use (mono, twist, screw, barbed, or cog), how many to place, and the correct insertion angle and depth for the face — with hands-on technique training throughout.
03
Real Patient Procedures
Perform procedures on real patients under direct faculty supervision — not a model or mannequin. Leave with the confidence of having done it with your own hands on the course day itself.
⸺ Thread types covered
The main PDO thread types you'll learn
Different threads achieve different outcomes — the course covers all major types and when to use each for maximum patient results.
Mono Threads
Single smooth threads used for skin texture, fine line improvement, and collagen stimulation — ideal for large treatment areas and overall rejuvenation.
Twist & Screw Threads
Helical threads wrapped around the insertion needle — provide greater volume and tissue stimulation than mono threads for deeper skin layers.
Barbed & Cog Threads
Directional threads with barbs or cogs that anchor to tissue — used for actual mechanical lifting of the face, jowls, brow, and neck areas.
⸺ Special offer
Registered attendees receive a thread starter package as part of the course.

Thank You So Much For Providing A Wonderful Training Course. It's The Best Training Course I've Ever Had!
I just wanted to say the R3 hands on course was one of the best I have ever attended! There is a lot of background work necessary to make it happen and I am thankful you were in charge!
Not only did we get the didactic portion, but we get a ton of hands on. I feel like I really got the most for my money and I’m getting a ton of experience I can take to my practice!
