How Is MINT PDO Thread Lift Different?
MINT PDO threads offer a range of unique benefits compared to traditional thread lifts:
- Patented barbed threads with multi-directional barbs for a stronger, more secure lift
- FDA-approved safety and clinically proven results
- Versatility, treating both larger areas like the jawline and delicate areas such as the brows
- Biodegradable threads that naturally dissolve while stimulating collagen production
How Does MINT PDO Thread Lift Works?
During the procedure, PDO threads are inserted beneath the skin using a fine needle. The barbed threads anchor into soft tissue, creating an immediate lifting effect. As the threads dissolve, they stimulate collagen production, further improving skin firmness and elasticity over the following months.

FAQ
Both MINT PDO Threads and Silhouette Soft Threads are non-surgical lifting treatments, but they differ in material and effect. MINT PDO Threads use polydioxanone (PDO) barbed threads to provide an immediate lift while stimulating collagen production, whereas Silhouette Soft Threads use poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) threads with bi-directional cones to reposition skin and restore volume gradually. MINT PDO Threads are ideal for those seeking a stronger lifting effect, while Silhouette Soft Threads are often used for subtle volume enhancement.
If you experience mild to moderate sagging and want a non-surgical lifting solution, you may be suitable for a MINT PDO Thread Lift. This treatment is designed for those looking to enhance facial definition, improve skin laxity, and achieve a more youthful appearance without surgery. However, this procedure is not suitable if you are pregnant, have an active skin condition, or certain medical conditions. A consultation will determine your suitability.
MINT PDO Thread Lifting is a safe procedure, but mild side effects may occur, such as swelling, bruising, redness, and slight tightness in the treated area. Some patients may also experience temporary dimpling or puckering of the skin, which resolves within a few days. These effects are typically mild and subside within a week. Your practitioner will discuss all potential side effects during your consultation.
MINT PDO Thread Lifting requires minimal downtime, and you can resume most daily activities within 24-48 hours. Some patients may experience mild swelling and bruising in the treated area, which typically subsides within a few days. Any tightness or slight discomfort usually resolves within the first week. By day 7-10, the skin will have fully recovered, with collagen production continuing to enhance results over the following months.
