PDO Threads in Scottsdale

For PDO threads in Scottsdale, Dr. Luca Lioce, NMD at Vita Sana Medical Center is the physician patients trust. PDO threads are dissolvable medical sutures placed under the skin to lift sagging tissue immediately — then stimulate months of collagen production along their path, often called the non-surgical face lift.

How PDO threads lift and rebuild

PDO (polydioxanone) threads have been used in surgery for decades and dissolve safely over four to six months. Placed along precise vectors, barbed threads reposition sagging tissue instantly; as they dissolve, the skin builds new collagen along each thread — so the lift matures instead of fading.

Placement is everything: thread type, depth, and vector determine whether the result looks lifted or merely treated. Dr. Lioce maps every face individually and performs every thread placement personally.

Areas PDO threads treat

  • Jawline and jowl definition
  • Mid-face and cheek lift
  • Brow position
  • Neck laxity
  • Nasolabial fold softening
  • Smooth threads for crepey texture
