SAFE SOLUTION TO SAGGING SKIN

MINT PDO Thread

MINT PDO is a FDA cleared, PDO thread manufactured and distributed by HansBiomed in a state-of-the-art facility under the strictest quality and safety standards. HansBiomed Corporation is the first Asian tissue bank approved by the US FDA. We produce safe and high quality allograft products and biological implants in accordance with US FDA, EATB (European Association of Tissue Bank), and AATB (American Association of Tissue Bank) guidelines and standards.

As we age, our skin suffers substantially. Loose skin creates sagging and bags that are difficult to cover. A face lift is the only way to permanently rid yourself of these issues, but going under the knife is a daunting thought for most people. MINT PDO provides a revolutionary type of facial rejuvenation without surgery. Commonly known as the thread face lift , you can dramatically improve your looks and reduce the signs of aging without surgery.

MINT PDO can reposition underlying tissues and smooth and soften facial skin. It produces immediate and longer-lasting results than treatments with dermal fillers and BOTOX®. As another anti-aging option for a tailored and customized facial rejuvenation, MINT PDO procedures fill the gap between surgery and injectables.

What is

MINT PDO?

MINT PDO is from South Korea, and it is a safe & effective dissolvable suture made from a complex sugar called PDO, polydioxanone. With a decade worth of safety track record in surgery, PDO is a safe raw material that has been used for orthopedic and cardiovascular surgery for wound closure.

Starting 2004, PDO’s use has evolved so that it is applied for minimally invasive procedure such as for soft tissue approximation in MINT PDO’s procedures. Additionally, MINT PDO’s safety is further validated from its 510(k) clearance from the FDA and is currently being used in 14 other countries worldwide.

Am I a Good Candidate for

MINT PDO?

For the most optimal results, the ideal candidate should have a skin layer that is not too thin or too thick and not extremely uneven. The skin should be thin enough so MINT PDO can make a visible difference and thick enough so the threads are not too close to the surface of the skin. One way to check before a consultation with your provider is to lay down on your back and see if you like the way your face looks, as it can be a good indicator of how effective MINT PDO can be. Lastly, please consult with the physician if you are an optimal candidate for MINT Procedure.

How Old

Do I Have to Be?

MINT PDO is recommended for both women and men ages 30-50+ who experience moderate sagging in the midface, jowls, nasolabial folds, neck, and eyebrows. Our threads provide two way care: patients may also experience improvement in skin texture, fine lines, and elasticity from collagen stimulation and neovascularization which will help soften wrinkles and fine lines and give the skin an overall firmer and tighter look. However, the procedure is also great for younger patients who are looking to define their jawlines with sharper V-lines and obtain a more snatched and contoured facial structure or fix droopy eyelids.

How Long is the

MINT PDO Procedure?

The procedure takes an average of one hour but can take anywhere between 30 minutes to 45 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.
