⸺ What is PDO Thread Lift?

⸺ 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.
