Unlike traditional facelifts patients will have minimal downtime following their procedure. WE LOVE THEM!!! THERE IS NO GOING BACK!!!Ĭontour threads are used by surgeons to vertically lift facial tissues in the lower face, jawline, chin, or another area of the face. As with everything in our office, we made sure we had those threads placed in our own faces before ever using them on patients. It allows us to give patients improvements well beyond what was possible before. A PDO thread lift, on the other hand, is a very safe, no-incision, clean and predictable procedure,if performed by physicians with the proper expertise and an esthetic eye. This is not to be confused with the previous 3 generations of “lunchtime thread lifts” which we purposely and thankfully never embraced as they were fraught with all sorts of problems. MINT™ is also backed by more than 6 years of clinical studies for its efficacy and safety and is the first and only PDO suture in the US market to have received two FDA clearances.A PDO thread lift represents a major advance in safe, non-surgical tissue lifting. Not only can it improve the appearance of sagging skin, PDO (polydioxanone) can also help promote the stimulation of collagen and neovascularization, which helps to improve skin elasticity, texture, fine lines, and volume for a timeless rejuvenation. Once the threads are placed into the skin, the barbs anchor onto sagging skin, and the thread can be maneuvered to achieve a naturally youthful and defined look. There are tiny barbs strategically placed and molded all around the thread.

MINT™ PDO thread is a minimally invasive procedure that does not require general anesthesia nor big incisions for your patients. With its innovative patented technology in which the barbs are press-molded and configured in a 360-degree helical pattern, MINT™ PDO offers the most robust threads on the market. This revolutionary technology allows instant yet profound results while minimizing pain & trauma - allowing you to benefit from a shorter recovery time and providing an alternative for those who may not be ready for surgery or request a non-surgical option.


PDO threads have rapidly become a popular minimally invasive alternative to surgical facelift procedures.
