The Mint Lift

MINT™ stands for Minimally Invasive Nonsurgical Thread. MINT™ PDO threads are manufactured using an innovative patented technology where the barbs are press-molded on the surface of the thread in a 360 degree helical pattern. This gives the threads the highest tensile strength available to anchor onto sagging tissue for instant and natural rejuvenation.

PDO (Polydioxanone) barbed threads are a type of thread used in minimally invasive cosmetic procedures for facial rejuvenation and lifting. PDO threads are made of a biocompatible material called polydioxanone, which is commonly used in surgical sutures.

PDO Barbed Lifting Threads

PDO barbed threads have tiny press moulded barbs, which allow them to be anchored in the skin and provide a lifting effect. These threads are inserted under the skin using a thin needle or cannula, and the barbs engage with the underlying tissues, providing immediate lift and support.

The insertion of PDO barbed threads stimulates collagen production and tissue contraction, which further enhances the lifting and tightening effect over time. The threads gradually dissolve within the skin over several months, but the collagen synthesis they induce can continue to provide long-term benefits.

 

The procedure using PDO barbed threads is typically performed by a trained medical professional. It can be used to address various signs of aging, including sagging skin, jowls, and mild to moderate facial laxity. The treatment is customizable and can be tailored to meet individual patient needs.

It's important to note that the use of PDO barbed threads carries some potential risks and side effects, such as bruising, swelling, infection, or thread migration. Therefore, it's crucial to consult with a qualified professional who can assess your suitability for the procedure and discuss the potential benefits and risks based on your specific circumstances.

 FAQs

  • PDO threads are medical-grade sutures made of Polydioxanone, a biocompatible material. These threads are used in cosmetic procedures for lifting, tightening, and rejuvenating the skin.

  • PDO threads work in two ways. Firstly, they provide an immediate mechanical lifting effect by physically lifting sagging skin. Secondly, they stimulate collagen production, which improves skin texture, elasticity, and firmness over time.

  • PDO threads can be used on various areas of the face and body. Common treatment areas include the cheeks, jowls, neck, jawline, nasolabial folds, marionette lines.

  • PDO threads are inserted under the skin using a thin needle or cannula. The specific technique and insertion method may vary based on the treatment area and desired outcome.

  • The procedure is typically performed using local anesthesia to minimize discomfort. Some patients may experience mild discomfort, swelling, or bruising after the procedure, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and cold compresses. You may feel pressure during the insertion of the threads and/or hear the "clicking" sound of the threads, but you should feel minimal pain during the procedure.

  • PDO thread lift results can vary depending on factors such as the individual's age, skin condition, and lifestyle. On average, results can last from 12-18 months. However, the collagen stimulation effects can continue to provide long-term benefits.

  • PDO threads are generally considered safe when performed by a trained and experienced professional. However, like any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects, including bruising, swelling, infection, thread migration, or visibility of the threads. These risks can be minimized by following proper post-procedure care and seeking treatment from a qualified practitioner.

  • A suitable candidate for PDO thread treatment is typically someone who has mild to moderate skin laxity, desires facial rejuvenation, and has realistic expectations about the outcomes. It's important to have a consultation with a medical professional who can assess your suitability for the procedure based on your individual needs and medical history.
