Threads Lifting in DermaSpa
About the clinic
PDO thread lifting at DermaSpa in Cali, Colombia, uses absorbable threads to lift sagging skin without surgery. Medical Director Dr. María Andreina Carrasquero León personally performs each procedure and has over 15 years of experience in aesthetic medicine.
How the PDO thread lift works
The treatment uses biocompatible polydioxanone (PDO) threads. A clinician places them under the skin with fine needles, without incisions or anchors. The threads form a support network and stimulate collagen production.
Local anesthesia is used, and discomfort is described as minimal. A session takes about 30–60 minutes. The treatment is outpatient, and patients can return to daily activities immediately.
Treatment areas and expected timeline
PDO threads can treat areas of the face and body, including:
- Facial oval, neck, décolletage, cheekbones, crow’s feet, and eyebrows
- Abdomen, glutes, thighs, arms, breasts, and hands
Skin may feel firmer and more elastic from the third week. Full facial contour changes may take about three months to appear.
The threads are absorbed in about 10–12 months. The lifting effect may last up to 18 months, depending on metabolism and lifestyle. One session is usually enough, though a clinician may recommend a touch-up after evaluation.
Aftercare
Patients should avoid direct sun for the first 48 hours and avoid rubbing or massaging treated areas. Aggressive facial treatments should be avoided for at least two weeks. Keeping the skin hydrated is also advised.
Request a consultation through Bookimed to ask whether a PDO thread lift may suit your needs.

DermaSpa: more details about the clinic
DermaSpa is a private center for aesthetic medicine and laser-based anti-aging in Cali, Colombia. It opened in 2026. The clinic specializes in outpatient rejuvenation that delivers visible results without traditional surgery. All treatments take place in a single specialized building, and a physician leads each one.
Medical Expertise and Achievements
Dr. María Andreina Carrasquero León leads the medical team. She has over 15 years of experience in aesthetic medicine. Dr. Carrasquero León graduated as a surgeon from the University of the Andes in Venezuela. Later, she completed postgraduate training at the Argentine Association of Aesthetic Clinic in Argentina.
She holds multiple international certifications in facial harmonization and rejuvenation. This background shapes the clinic's focus on gradual results with energy-based platforms. The same specialist team monitors every procedure, so care stays consistent from start to finish.
Aesthetic Medicine and Skin Rejuvenation
DermaSpa focuses on laser-based anti-aging and facial rejuvenation with a range of non-surgical methods. Each patient gets a personal care plan for loose skin, wrinkles, and uneven texture. Facial rejuvenation brings immediate hydration, and the effects can last up to 2 years.
Specialists at the clinic use several advanced facial treatments:
- Frozen Skin – uses high-pressure CO2 flow at low temperatures to trigger collagen and elastin formation.
- Fractional CO2 Laser – creates controlled micro-injuries to reduce scars and spots while sparing healthy tissue.
- EndoliftPRO – uses ultrafine microfibers to target sagging skin on the face and neck.
- PDO Thread Lifting – places dissolvable threads under the skin to form a supportive lifting network.
- HIFU – uses focused ultrasound to tighten skin naturally at deep tissue levels.
PDO thread effects become visible from the third week. The lift peaks at 3 months and can last up to 18 months. Frozen Skin sessions are quick, usually lasting 15 to 20 minutes per visit.
Body Contouring and Fat Reduction
The clinic offers non-invasive alternatives to liposuction, so patients can reshape the body without incisions. Heat and vacuum-assisted technologies target stubborn fat pockets and cellulite. Aftercare often includes lymphatic drainage, which helps the body clear the treated fat.
Body reshaping options at the center include:
- Criolipólisis – cools fat tissue to -8°C, so the body naturally clears the fat cells.
- Liposoft 3D – uses triple-action technology for non-surgical fat reduction.
- Laser Lipolysis – targets fat cells with laser energy to improve body contour.
- Radiofrecuencia Fraccionada – combines radiofrequency with micro-needling to firm the skin.
Criolipólisis usually takes 1 to 3 sessions, depending on the treated area. Results often show by the second week, and final outcomes appear at 12 weeks.
Advanced Laser Technologies
The clinic has a range of energy-based platforms for aesthetic and medical needs. These allow precise treatments with little recovery time. Its equipment includes the FOTONA 4D® system and specialized vaginal rejuvenation lasers.
Other technology available to patients includes:
- FOTONA IntimaLase – used for non-surgical vaginal tightening and rejuvenation.
- Hollywood Laser Peel – a laser treatment that exfoliates the skin and evens out tone.
- Digital Dermoscopy – used for accurate mole mapping and skin checks.
- Fractionated Radiofrequency – equipment that regenerates skin and refines texture.
Specialists also use ultrasound and high-pressure CO2 devices for certain facial lifting protocols.
International Patient Support and Safety
DermaSpa gives thorough aftercare guidance for a safe recovery. Patients get detailed instructions on hydration, nutrition, and sun protection after treatment. Most people return to social activities within one week.
Specialists handle follow-up care as a team. This means patients have medical guidance through the entire healing process. Since all services are outpatient with no hospital stay, travel is easier for international visitors.
