What is a PDO Body Thread Lift?

A PDO body thread lift is a minimally invasive, non-surgical cosmetic procedure that lifts and reshapes sagging skin on the body using body-specific dissolvable PDO threads inserted beneath the skin, without any incisions or implants. Unlike traditional surgical lifting procedures that require general anesthesia, extensive cutting, and weeks of recovery, a body thread lift is performed under local anesthesia, and patients can return to their normal daily activities on the same day.

At PangPang, our board-certified plastic surgeons perform a comprehensive analysis of your skin sagging and elasticity and consider your goals in order to create your personalized treatment plan and deliver the best results possible. Feel confident and comfortable throughout your thread lift procedure – always at PangPang.

Why Get a Body Thread Lift?

Compared to surgical lifting procedures the advantages of a body thread lift are numerous:

Achieve surgical results without the incisions, sedation, and difficult healing of a surgical body lift

Combine a body thread lift with laser lifting to improve skin texture and elasticity at the same time

No scarring concerns – there is no incision made for a body thread lift, so there are no scars left behind

Immediate return to daily life – local anesthesia and non-invasiveness of the procedure mean you can resume your daily activities right away

Exclusive Pink Lift Threads

We have developed a new type of medical thread, created for optimal thread lift results by analyzing PangPang’s accumulated thread lifting treatment data. Carrying the PangPang name, they are the result of the clinic’s top-tier expertise and unwavering dedication – designed for effective results even with just one thread.

How is a PDO Body Thread Lift Done?

A body thread lift involves inserting medical-grade threads created especially for body lifting into the subcutaneous layer of the skin, and then lifting and pulling it into the desired position. The thread ends are then trimmed so as not to be visible from the surface of the skin. The lifting effect is achieved thanks to small cogs on the threads that hold the skin in position after being lifted, as well as encouraging the skin’s natural collagen production. Over time, these threads dissolve, meaning thread removal is not necessary.

Thread Lift: The PangPang Way

Sculpting, not just placing.

Thread lifting is evolving from simply ‘lifting’ to ‘shaping’, or as our doctors at Pangpang Clinic like to call it: ‘sculpting’. Placement, angle and vector matter as much as the thread itself. Our doctors have a developed a technique wherein they plan vectors to harmonize with your anatomy, aiming for natural movement and soft transitions rather than an over-pulled look. Results vary by individual, but techniques is the single most important factor in achieving a refined outcome.
