Mint PDO & Advanced Aesthetics

PDO threads can quickly and effectively contour the neck and jawline as well as erase wrinkles from the skin to combat signs of aging.

What are PDO Threads?

PDO threads, nicknamed the non-surgical facelift, stimulate collagen growth by lifting the face to accentuate the cheeks, 

tighten the jawline and diminish the jowls. In recent years, polydioxanone threads have gained recognition in the medical aesthetics industry. The threads can be inserted almost anywhere in the body, but providers have found that they are most effective when treating the neck and jawline.

In addition to stimulating new collagen growth, there are several PDO threads treatment benefits:

• Skin rejuvenation

• Brightened skin tone

• Improvement in skin wrinkles for up to 12 to 18 months

• No surgery and minimal down time

Why You Should Try PDO Threads?

1 Improved elasticity and texture. As we get older, the sun and the aging process naturally takes a toll on our skin’s elasticity and texture. We go from having smooth, soft skin to skin that no longer has the same elasticity as when we were 

younger.

2 Reduces wrinkles. Like Botox, PDO threads are a great way to reduce the wrinkles on your face. They can help with fine lines that are starting to develop as well as deep folds that you may have had on your face for several years.

3 Brightens skin tone. PDO threads improve the condition of your skin, giving you a more radiant appearance. This 

treatment rejuvenates the skin because of the lifting effect, which will give you more defined facial contours.

4 Natural-looking results. Just one PDO treatment makes it possible to reverse unwanted signs of aging and enhance 

your overall appearance – all without a painful, invasive process or extended recovery time! Whether you want to 

contour your jawline, reduce nasolabial and marionette lines or lift the skin around the eyebrows and cheeks, PDO  threads make it possible.

Lidocaine injection applied to the entry points following which threads are introduced into the skin through a fine needle- into either the skin itself, the muscle, or the subcutaneous fat. The 

treatment results in an immediate  improvement in appearance but the results will improve over ensuing days and weeks as the PDO stimulates neocollagenesis, increasing the amount of collagen in the skin. The appearance of the skin improves in terms of overall texture, becoming thicker, tighter and firmer as fine lines and wrinkles are reduced

Thread-lift treatments result in an instant and natural looking improvement in the appearance of the skin. A process of natural  protein synthesis then begins after about 10-14 days. Over the 

subsequent weeks results will continue to improve, peaking at around 6 months and lasting for up to 2 years as your own body 

produce collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. Making this form of non surgical facelift a very long lasting treatment. The thread itself is completely biodegradable and dissolves within 12 weeks, after 

which new collagen has formed around the thread to continue to support results, maintaining a smooth and supple texture of the skin.

General aftercare advice:

 Some pain/discomfort after treatment can be expected, Ibuprofen can be taken if required.

 Do not have any other aesthetic procedures (such as toxins, 

fillers, peels etc.) for 7 days

 Avoid extreme temperatures, alcohol and anticoagulants for 7 days. Those taking Prescribed anticoagulants such as 

aspirin/warfarin must continue to do so but must be aware that bruising is more likely

 Gently wash the treated area as required, but do not rub or massage for 2 weeks 

 It is important not to overstretch the treated area (i.e. open the mouth wide) for 4 weeks (avoid dental treatment during 

this time if possible)

 Do not have Radio-frequency, IPL, Laser or other heat treatments near the treated area for 10 weeks
