MINT PDO THREADS

This innovative treatment uses dissolvable threads to lift and tighten the skin, promoting a natural, youthful appearance. The process involves inserting the threads just beneath the skin's surface, which stimulates collagen production and helps improve skin texture and elasticity. PDO threads are a minimally invasive option, providing noticeable results with little downtime. Whether you're looking to enhance facial contours or smooth out fine lines, this treatment could be a great fit for you.

THE SCIENCE

PDO SMOOTH THREADS:

After the PDO Smooth thread treatment, the body begins a natural healing process that helps restore tissue around the absorbable threads over the following months. This healing stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining youthful skin. Smooth PDO threads, which lack barbs, are particularly effective for enhancing collagen production in areas such as the lips and cheeks, where aging may have led to deflation or wrinkles.

We particularly love using smooth threads for targeting specific concerns, including the deep “11 lines” that may not respond to Botox, the “accordion lines” that appear around the lower face when smiling, and the delicate skin under the eyes to address crepiness. Additionally, we utilize these threads under the chin for a tightening effect, helping to create a more contoured appearance.

PDO LIFT THREADS: Everything You Need to Know

PDO Lift threads are specifically crafted for enhanced lifting and contouring effects. Unlike smooth threads, these threads feature small barbs or prongs along their length, which grip the skin more effectively, providing a more pronounced lifting effect.

The barbs help tighten the skin while stimulating the production of natural collagen, resulting in a subtle yet noticeable lift. These threads dissolve gradually over time, with results that can last between 9 to 12 months.

During the treatment, both MINT PDO Smooth and Lift threads are inserted under the skin using a fine cannula. The procedure typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. Patients may feel a slight pinch or pressure, but discomfort is minimal. After the threads are placed, you may notice an immediate lifting effect, particularly with Lift threads.

MINT PDO smooth threads enhance collagen production, improving skin texture and elasticity, making them ideal for areas like the lips and cheeks. Lift threads provide a more pronounced lifting effect, perfect for contouring and tightening sagging skin. Both types of threads gradually dissolve, leaving results that can last between 9 to 12 months, resulting in a natural and youthful appearance.

Ideal candidates for MINT PDO threads include individuals seeking non-surgical options to lift and rejuvenate their skin. Smooth threads are great for those looking to improve fine lines and skin texture, while lift threads are suited for individuals needing more significant lifting and contouring. Generally, candidates should be in good health and have realistic expectations about the outcomes.

Before your treatment, it's recommended to avoid blood thinners, such as aspirin or certain supplements, for at least a week to minimize bruising. Staying hydrated and avoiding alcohol can also help prepare your skin. After the procedure, it's important to follow specific post-care instructions, such as avoiding strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and facials for a few weeks. Keeping the treatment area clean and moisturized will also support healing and maximize results.
