Non-Surgical Skin Tightening for Natural Rejuvenation
Noticing a little sag here, a bit of droop there? It’s totally normal—but that doesn’t mean you have to live with it. If you’re looking for a natural way to lift and tighten your skin without going under the knife, Threads & Lifts in Carson might be exactly what you need.
At QD Skinnovations, we offer advanced PDO thread lifting—a revolutionary treatment that gently elevates the skin, boosts collagen production, and improves definition with minimal downtime. Whether you’re concerned about jowls, loose cheeks, or a softening jawline, our personalized approach helps you reclaim youthful contours in the most natural-looking way possible.
What Are Threads & Lifts?
Thread lifting is a minimally invasive aesthetic procedure that uses biodegradable PDO (polydioxanone) threads, the same material used in medical sutures, to mechanically lift and support the skin. Once inserted beneath the skin, these threads offer an immediate lifting effect and stimulate your body’s natural collagen and elastin production over time.
How It Works:
- Threads are gently inserted under the skin using a thin cannula.
- The threads anchor sagging tissue, providing a visible lift.
- As the threads dissolve, they leave behind a firmer, more youthful structure from new collagen growth.

What to Expect Before, During, and After the Procedure
Before Treatment
During your consultation, we’ll assess your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. Your injector will walk you through the process, map out the ideal thread placement, and discuss your comfort options.
During the Procedure
- The treatment takes about 30–60 minutes depending on the number of threads used.
- A local anesthetic is applied to ensure minimal discomfort.
- Threads are inserted beneath the skin using a thin cannula, creating an immediate lift.
Aftercare and Recovery
- Downtime is minimal, though you may experience mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness.
- Avoid intense facial movements, vigorous exercise, or dental work for about 7 days.
- You’ll begin seeing immediate improvement, with continued results appearing as collagen builds over 4–8 weeks.
How Long Do Results Last?
The lifting effects of PDO threads can last 12 to 18 months, with some clients enjoying even longer benefits thanks to enhanced collagen support. Follow-up treatments can help maintain your results naturally over time, especially when paired with complementary treatments like microneedling or biostimulators.

FAQs About Threads & Lifts
Is a thread lift painful?
Most clients report only mild discomfort. A topical or local anesthetic is applied to keep you comfortable during the procedure. Some tightness or soreness may be felt afterward but usually resolves quickly.
Can thread lifts be combined with other treatments?
Absolutely. Many clients combine thread lifts with dermal fillers, Botox, microneedling, or skin resurfacing treatments for enhanced, longer-lasting rejuvenation.
Are the threads visible under the skin?
No. The threads used are ultra-fine and placed under the skin’s surface. Once inserted, they are not visible or noticeable.
Who should avoid thread lifts?
People with active skin infections, bleeding disorders, autoimmune conditions, or extremely thin or sagging skin may not be good candidates. A consultation at QD Skinnovations will help determine if this treatment is right for you.
Can thread lifts be used to enhance the nose?
Yes! Nose thread lifts are a popular non-surgical option for subtle nose reshaping, such as lifting the nose bridge or defining the tip. This treatment uses special threads to enhance structure and symmetry without fillers or surgery, with minimal downtime.
