MINT (PDO) THREAD LIFT
KOREAN MINT PDO THREADS
Long biodegradable filaments coated in a stimulatory material (PDO – polydioxanone) are inserted under the skin to lift and tighten skin tissue of the facial and neck.
We offer an innovative thread lift treatment that combines MINT long threads with PDO mono threads for a more dramatic lift. You will see immediate results with continued improvement over 4-12 weeks.
MINT thread lift is moderately invasive and is performed by our experienced Doctors. Results last up to 24 months.
USED TO TREAT
Reposition and tighten skin laxity or ‘sagging’ of the face & neck by lifting sagging tissue, stimulating collagen and contraction of fat tissue.
MINT thread lift $3400.
Price includes consultation with our experienced Doctors, placement of (minimum) 12 x MINT (PDO) long threads + a series of PDO mono threads.
MINT thread lift is suitable for those looking to treat:
- Sagging cheeks and early jowling
- Drooping skin on the mid and lower face
- Submental (under the chin) & neck laxity
- Improves lower and mid face definition and symmetry
The MINT PDO thread lift does not have the same results as facial surgical but it offers a lasting refresh of skin tissue and facial structure for those not ready to undergo surgery.
The procedure begins by the Doctor injecting local anaesthetic into the treatment area to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure. You will feel minimum discomfort, only some pulling and pressure while the Doctor positions the threads under the skin. Entry points are then made using a needle attached to the thread (no incisions are required) and the thread is placed under the skin. Several threads are placed on each side of the face and the Doctor then pulls the threads tightly and they’re tied off. The knot from the threads is hidden underneath the skin and the treatment is complete. Whilst the lift is immediate, gradual proliferation of collagen and fibrous tissue takes place over a period of 4-12 weeks, further tightening and and shaping the contours of the face.
After the procedure you will experience:
- Minor bruising
- Moderate the severe swelling (7-14 days)
- Tenderness
- Minor dimpling and irregularties to the skin tissue is common where the skin has been lifted (2-4 weeks)
- You will be required to wear a support garment at night (provided)
- Refrain from high impact physical activity for 3 weeks (low impact activity such as yoga, swimming etc is permitted)
Unlike other threads available on the market no ‘taping’ of the face is required and you can resume most normal daily activities right away.
The results of the MINT PDO thread lift last up to 18-24 months. Individual variation in longevity of results exists and result may be affected by continual ageing and lifestyle factors such as smoking and weight loss.
