MINT PDO Treatment

A Non-Surgical Lift for Tighter, More Youthful Skin

As we age, the skin naturally begins to lose its elasticity, which leads to sagging and diminished facial definition. While traditional facelifts provide long-term results, many people prefer a less invasive approach. The MINT PDO (Minimally Invasive Non-surgical Thread) Lift is an FDA-approved treatment that’s designed to lift and firm sagging skin for a refreshed and youthful look without the need for surgery.

MINT PDO threads are biodegradable sutures that safely dissolve over time, so they provide structural support while stimulating collagen production. This innovative procedure requires only local anesthesia, involves minimal discomfort, and delivers fast, noticeable results with little to no scarring or downtime.

For those seeking a customized anti-aging solution, MINT PDO serves as the perfect bridge between injectable treatments and surgical facelifts.

Is MINT PDO Right for You?

The ideal candidate for MINT PDO treatment has moderate skin laxity—not too thick or thin, but with enough structure to achieve an effective lift. This procedure works best for individuals looking to tighten and redefine their facial contours without undergoing surgery.

We offer complimentary consultations to help determine if MINT PDO is the best treatment for your skin type and aesthetic goals.

Who Benefits Most from MINT PDO?

This treatment is commonly recommended for men and women ages 30 to 50+ who are experiencing skin laxity in key areas, such as:

Midface and jowls

Nasolabial folds (smile lines)

Neck and jawline

Brows and eye area

Beyond lifting sagging skin, MINT PDO also enhances skin texture, elasticity, and firmness by stimulating collagen production. Younger patients who are seeking a sharper jawline or refined facial structure may also find this treatment beneficial.

What Kind of Results Can You Expect?

One of the biggest advantages of MINT PDO is the instant improvement in facial contours. While individual results may vary, common benefits include:

Higher, more defined cheekbones
A lifted, sculpted jawline
Fox eye or cat eye lift

Reduced appearance of smile lines
More youthful-looking brows
Tighter, smoother skin on the neck

Since MINT PDO threads stimulate collagen production, results continue to improve over time, with benefits lasting 12 to 18 months.

What to Expect from the Procedure

The MINT PDO treatment typically takes 45 to 90 minutes, depending on the number of threads used. The procedure begins with a local anesthetic for the patient’s comfort. The dissolvable PDO threads are then strategically inserted to lift and reposition sagging skin.

Instant lifting effect is visible immediately after the procedure.
Mild swelling, redness, or tightness may occur but subsides within days.
Minimal downtime allows most patients to resume daily activities quickly.
Threads dissolve over time, but collagen stimulation continues, leading to longer-lasting improvements.

While minor puncture points may take a few weeks to fully heal, results gradually improve as collagen rebuilds in the treated areas.

Frequently Asked Questions About MINT PDO

Will I Feel the PDO Threads After Treatment?

You may experience a slight tightening sensation or mild soreness initially, but this subsides within a few weeks as the threads settle and your skin heals.

Does MINT PDO Help Build Collagen?

Yes! The PDO threads stimulate collagen production, which enhances skin elasticity and firmness long after the threads have dissolved.

How Do PDO Threads Compare to Fillers?

PDO threads are specifically designed to lift and tighten sagging skin, making them a great option for contouring and redefining facial structure. Fillers, on the other hand, are better suited for restoring lost volume. Many patients choose to combine both treatments for a balanced, youthful look.
