This innovative, non-surgical treatment lifts, tightens, and rejuvenates the skin, giving you a natural-looking facelift effect. Dr. Greta McLaren, a trusted name in aesthetic treatments, brings the latest PDO Thread technology, providing patients with a minimally invasive alternative to a traditional facelift.
Cosmetic medical techniques have advanced greatly in recent years. Many aspects of facial aging can be addressed with safe and effective procedures that offer little downtime and natural-looking results. While wrinkles, brown spots, and lost volume can be treated with existing procedures, until now, there has been no minimally invasive way to lift the deeper layers of mid-facial skin, one of the major contributors to an aged and tired appearance.

What is PDO therapy?
A PDO Thread Lift is a modern facelift technique that uses safe, absorbable threads made of polydioxanone (PDO) to lift and firm the skin. The threads are carefully placed under the skin in targeted areas, creating an immediate lifting effect and stimulating collagen production over time. This added collagen naturally improves the skin’s elasticity, strength, and overall appearance, giving you results that continue to enhance even months after the treatment.
Understanding the Causes
Loose or sagging skin on the neck is a common concern for those seeking rejuvenation. This can occur due to aging, weight loss, or genetic factors. With age, the skin naturally loses elasticity, and the thin platysmal bands in the neck become more visible, leading to sagging and a “turkey neck” appearance. While this issue typically emerges in older age, individuals with a genetic predisposition may notice sagging skin as early as their late twenties.
Benefits of Choosing a Face Lift with PDO Threads
For anyone seeking an effective face lift without surgery, PDO Thread Lift offers several outstanding benefits:
Immediate Lift
Unlike traditional methods, PDO threads instantly lift sagging areas, especially around the cheeks, jawline, and neck.
Natural Results Over Time
The PDO threads stimulate collagen production as they dissolve, creating lasting improvements in skin texture and firmness.
Minimal Downtime
With a PDO Thread Lift, you can return to most of your daily activities right after the treatment, making it a convenient choice for busy schedules.
Long-Lasting Effects
While the threads dissolve within months, the collagen boost can continue to improve the skin’s appearance for up to a year or more.
What to Expect During Your PDO Thread Lift
Your PDO Thread Lift at Skin Secrets starts with a personalized consultation with Dr. McLaren, who will assess your unique needs and goals. During the procedure, Dr. McLaren will use a local anesthetic for comfort before inserting PDO threads in targeted areas to lift and support the skin. Patients often notice an immediate improvement, with results continuing to enhance as collagen production builds.
Once in place, the threads provide an immediate lifting effect, followed by ongoing collagen stimulation weeks after the procedure. The procedure is usually carried out using local anesthetic and takes between 45 and 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Aftercare and Recovery
To maintain optimal results, it’s essential to follow Dr. McLaren’s aftercare instructions, which might include avoiding intense physical activity, saunas, or facial massages for the first few days.
