PDO thread rejuvenation, also known as a thread face lift, is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that’s capable of tightening and firming the skin. If you’re looking to get a thread face lift in Melbourne or Adelaide, make an appointment today at Skintech. Our thread rejuvenation clinic can provide treatment that’s tailored to your skin to help address your specific concerns.
Thread lifts are a non-surgical face lift treatment that uses tiny sutures to mechanically lift skin, contract fat tissue, and stimulate renewal. The result is a natural-looking tightening effect that improves the appearance of saggy and wrinkled skin. The threads used are made from polydioxanone (PDO), a safe material that’s used to close wounds after surgery.

There are two different types of threads: Mono Threads and Long Threads.
Our TGA-approved PDO Mono Threads are introduced into the skin to activate collagen synthesis which helps tighten and rejuvenate ageing skin. Mono threads are usually smaller in size and suited for those who have mild to moderate lines and wrinkles.
Thread face lift treatment or long threads on the other hand can lift sagging skin on your face and neck by introducing soft suture threads into the skin tissue to hold it in place and achieve the desired lift effect. Your body will also start to generate new bundles of collagen surrounding the threads, producing firmer and younger looking skin. As this is a mechanical pull, results can be seen immediately and will continue to improve as the threads dissolve.
Thread lifts at our PDO threads clinic can be performed on most areas of the face, including:
The thread lift Melbourne cost will depend on which areas you would like to treat. During your free consultation, we will be able to provide you with a more accurate quote.
There are two main categories of threads: Mono thread treatment can tighten and rejuvenate certain areas of the face, while long threads can achieve a more pronounced lifting effect similar to a facelift.
Led by Medical Director Dr Ben Chan, we have helped countless Australians with their skin concerns for more than 35 years.
Our team of 10 registered doctors, 7 registered nurses and 9 skin therapists have undergone comprehensive training and are continually evaluated by the Aesthetics and Skin Institute.
We offer treatments that are clinically proven and supported by science, in a clinic environment that follows strict guidelines for safety and sanitation.
Our wealth of medical expertise means that we can provide advice and treatment on a wide range of aesthetics and skin concerns.
Depending on the type and number of threads used, some people may notice lifting effects soon after treatment. Further improvements may be visible over the next few months as collagen develops. Results vary for each individual.
Effects may last for many months, and in some cases up to 1–2 years, depending on individual factors and the natural ageing process.
The PDO thread rejuvenation treatment should take no longer than 20-30 minutes in total. Depending on the lifting effect you would like to achieve, multiple threads will be strategically placed into your skin using sterile acupuncture needles. The threads will act as a frame for new collagen and will lift sagging tissue. There will only be injections and no incisions for this procedure.
Local anaesthetic will be administered before the procedure, so you will feel little to no discomfort.
Thread lift treatments are minimally invasive. Some people may experience temporary bruising or swelling, which generally settles within a few days.
Depending on the nature of the sagging skin, threads may be more suitable for certain types of changes. Threads can also help to achieve a more dramatic effect as they mechanically lift the skin. Both treatments have great longevity and results, and our medical team can advise which is most appropriate for you during your initial consultation.
You can enjoy peace of mind during your long thread or mono thread treatment, as all of our staff are medically trained and certified. Our registered nurses also work alongside experienced skin doctors to deliver cosmetic treatments you can trust.
