For Youthful Skin
PDO Threads
What is PDO?
PDO (Polydioxanone) Threads are a type of cosmetic treatment that uses a special suture material to lift and tighten the skin. PDO threads are versatile and can be used to treat a variety of skin concerns, including wrinkles, sagging skin, and loss of volume.
- Mono Threads – Thinner and shorter sutures to target specific areas of the face, such as fine lines and wrinkles
- Thread Lifts – Multi or bidirectional cogs threads to lift and tighten larger areas of the face, such as the cheeks and jowls.
- Non-surgical Rhinoplasty – Non-surgical nose reshaping or nose contouring
WHAT WE IMPROVE
Safe and Low Downtime
PDO threads are a minimally invasive, low downtime method to increase collagen production in the skin.
Improvement in Skin Tone and Firmness
These threads enhance skin tone, firmness, and turgor, subtly improving skin laxity by stimulating collagen production.
Non-Surgical Alternative
Offers a non-surgical option for lifting and tightening sagging skin, targeting issues such as jowls, nasolabial folds, and drooping eyebrows.
Thread rhinoplasty
Threads are strategically placed to lift and contour the nose, providing a more defined and structured appearance.
Key Information
Why do we need collagen?
Collagen is a protein that plays a crucial role in maintaining the structure and elasticity of our skin. It helps to provide strength and support to our skin, making it appear firm and youthful. PDO threads are designed to stimulate collagen production in the area to give the skin a more youthful appearance.
What is MINT (Minimally Invasive Nonsurgical Thread) PDO thread lift?
MINT PDO is an anti-ageing option for a tailored and customised facial rejuvenation. MINT PDO thread procedures fill the gap between surgery and injectables, and can reposition underlying tissues and smooth and soften facial skin. PDO threads are a safe and effective absorbable suture made from a biocompatible material called PDO, polydioxanone. MINT threads produces immediate and longer-lasting results than treatments with dermal fillers and botulinum toxin. By restoring the patient’s lost youth with a sharper jawline and V-line, MINT procedures address signs of ageing caused by gravity, such as sagging skin.
How does MINT PDO thread lift procedure work?
MINT PDO thread lift is a minimally invasive simple procedure that is done under local anaesthesia. It is introduced into the deeper layers of the skin, and the helically molded barbs on the MINT PDO threads anchor onto the sagging tissue, and the PDO thread is lifted upwards to achieve an instant, rejuvenating and contouring effect. Patients will experience minimal pain, minimal scarring, and a rapid recovery. The procedure takes an average of one hour but can take anywhere between 45 minutes to 90 minutes. Patients will see immediate results after the procedure that can last up to 1-4 year.
What results can be achieved with MINT PDO thread lift?
MINT PDO thread lift results are immediate. You do not have to wait weeks and months to see your results. Although individual results may vary, common results achieved with MINT PDO threads include -
- Heart shaped, higher cheekbone contour
- Exotic, cat eye contour

How long do the results last? What is the recovery time and are there any side effects or risks?
Patients will see immediate results after the procedure that can last up to 2 years. MINT has a stronger lifting power and better specification designs in comparison to other PDO threads. After the procedure, patients may immediately return to daily lives, but they will consult with our doctors before resuming exercise and other intense activities. Although minimal, side effects may include but are not limited to bruising, dimpling, and swelling.
