A defined jawline and a sculpted neck profile are universal markers of youth and vitality. However, as skin loses elasticity and underlying tissues succumb to gravity, many men and women experience the slow evolution of a soft jawline, jowls, or a “double chin.” While surgical neck lifts or invasive liposuction were once the only effective remedies, modern aesthetic medicine offers a powerful, non-invasive alternative.
At Liposuction and Cosmetic Surgery Institute, we specialize in advanced chin threading using premium Polydioxanone (PDO) sutures. This innovative, walk-in procedure allows you to sharpen a rounded profile, eliminate sagging skin, and restore youthful contours without a single surgical incision or permanent scar.

How PDO Threads for a Double Chin Work
To understand how a non-surgical double chin thread lift reshapes the lower face, it helps to understand the dual-action mechanics of the threads themselves. PDO material is a medical-grade, absorbable substance that has been used safely in cardiovascular and orthopedic surgeries for decades.
During the procedure, our experienced clinical specialists strategically insert specialized threads under the chin and along the jawline boundary, providing many immediate and long-term benefits when it comes to treating a double chin. We’ve outlined these benefits below.
Short-Term Benefits:
We utilize advanced, barbed, or molded PDO sutures. These microscopic barbs gently hook onto the underlying subdermal tissues, allowing our clinicians to physically lift, tighten, and anchor loose skin into a higher, more defined position, instantly reducing the appearance of your double chin.
Long-Term Benefits:
Placing PDO threads under the chin initiates a natural healing response. Your body immediately begins enveloping the absorbable sutures in a fresh matrix of type I and type III collagen. As the physical threads naturally dissolve via hydrolysis over six to ten months, they leave behind a firm, supportive framework of your own natural collagen that maintains your sharp profile for 12 to 24 months.
