# Are PDO thread lift results permanent?

While PDO thread lifts offer impressive lifting and rejuvenation, the results are not permanent. Here's what you need to know:

- **Thread Dissolution:** The PDO threads themselves dissolve within 6-12 months.
- **Collagen Stimulation:** The key to the longer-term effects of a PDO thread lift is the stimulation of new collagen production that occurs within the skin. This new collagen network provides ongoing support and lifting.
- **Result Duration:** Most people experience visible results from a PDO thread lift for around 12-18 months, sometimes even longer. Factors like age, skin condition, and lifestyle can affect how long your results last.
- **Maintenance Treatments:** To maintain your results, your AIVI Aesthetics provider might recommend periodic touch-up thread lifts or other complementary aesthetic procedures.
