PDO Threads on the Upper West Side
Lift and Tighten Naturally with PDO Thread Treatments in Manhattan
PDO Threads is a non-surgical treatment that uses thin, absorbable threads made from polydioxanone to gently lift and tighten sagging skin. This minimally invasive procedure stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production while providing an immediate lift to areas of concern. At TimeLyss Med Spa, located on Central Park West near the 86th Street subway station, we customize PDO Thread treatments to refresh your face and neck with natural-looking results and minimal downtime.
PDO Threads are ideal for those seeking a subtle, effective way to improve skin firmness without surgery or a long recovery. Patients from Manhattan Valley, Lincoln Square, and throughout the Upper West Side (ZIP 10024) trust our skilled providers for safe, natural-looking lifts.
What Are PDO Threads?
PDO Threads are fine threads inserted just under the skin to provide support and lift to sagging areas. We use the Miracu line of PDO threads, which are FDA-cleared and offer both an instant lifting effect and a longer-term collagen boost. As the threads dissolve naturally over time, they leave firmer, smoother skin with a more youthful appearance.

- Stimulate collagen for continued firmness and elasticity
- Enjoy minimal downtime and quick recovery
- Maintain a natural appearance with subtle enhancement
- Safe, FDA-cleared treatment performed by trained injectors
- Ideal for busy Manhattan lifestyles needing visible, lasting results

Alyssa at Timelyss MedSpa is truly the best. I’m an apprehensive and cautious client- always want a natural look with maximum results. She delivers this tenfold. Alyssa is not only extremely patient with all my questions and concerns, she is honest and extremely knowledgeable. She carefully and skillfully explains which products work best and why, showing me what areas she felt were best to optimize a refreshed and youthful look. And not only that, she guided me on what was most cost effective as well which of course, I appreciated. Additionally she bands steady and skilled hands- I am afraid of needles and there was minimal pain!!!! And lastly, she never pushes me to do anything that I’m not 100% comfortable with. I truly leave Alyssa feeling way more confident. Thank you!!!!!! – Donna Sender-Pollari
