Sagging skin is a natural part of the aging process, but it can also significantly impact a person’s self-esteem. The good news is that there are plenty of ways to combat the effects of aging skin, such as MINT™ PDO thread lifts. This noninvasive procedure lifts and tightens the skin, helping you achieve a more youthful look.
Ladner Facial Plastic Surgery offers a wide range of cosmetic procedures, including PDO thread lift. We specialize in surgical and nonsurgical treatments to help patients achieve their desired results.
Your Guide to PDO Thread Lifts
Learn more about this nonsurgical procedure and how we can help address your skin concerns.
What Is a PDO Thread Lift?
A PDO thread lift is a cosmetic treatment that uses polydioxanone (PDO) threads to improve the appearance of the skin. This nonsurgical procedure is primarily used to minimize signs of aging by lifting and tightening the skin. PDO threads are also known as surgical sutures because they’re the same thread used in stitching surgical wounds. The thread dissolves over time and delivers immediate results.
At Ladner Facial Plastic Surgery, our PDO thread lifts use minimally invasive nonsurgical threads (MINT) to lift the skin and stimulate collagen production. MINT features press-molded barbs and a 360-degree helical pattern that helps preserve the thread’s integrity. The MINT PDO lifting thread is the only device on the market with triple FDA clearances, providing safe and effective results.
How Does a PDO Thread Lift Work?
The PDO thread lift procedure begins with the threads loaded into the hypodermic needle. The needle is injected under the skin, and the PDO thread is left in place upon withdrawal. The body will absorb the thread over several months, delivering lifting and tightening effects for six to eight months.
Where Can You Use PDO Thread Lifts?
Our MINT PDO lifts are ideal for use in the following areas of the face:
- Lower face (jawline and chin)
- Cheeks
- Neck
- Eyebrows
- Nose
