What Is a PDO Thread Lift? A PDO thread lift is a non-surgical, less invasive skin tightening treatment. The results from a PDO thread lift are like those of a facelift; however, with this treatment, you do not have to undergo invasive surgery, meaning you can return to your normal routine in the shortest time possible. PDO stands for polydioxanone, a synthetic, monofilament, flexible, raw material that is absorbed by the body through hydrolysis. PDO threads come in three main textures: screw, cog, and mono. PDO screw threads consist of one or two intertwined threads that help restore volume to parts on your sunken skin. PDO cog threads have barbed threads that latch into your skin and reposition and support parts of your face. PDO mono threads have smooth sutures that provide volume. These sutures also help rejuvenate your skin by stimulating collagen production.

MINT™ PDO is a great procedure to get in conjunction with other treatments such as lasers, PRP, injectables, BOTOX®, and fillers. The threads can be used to target sagging skin and fillers can be utilized for deep lines to create an overall youthful appearance to the face. Ask your provider to learn more about treatment combinations to maximize the effects of MINT™ PDO.
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 year. We recommend patients to consult with their providers prior to the procedure day to discuss the look they desire and the results they can expect.
