MINT™ PDO Threads are a minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment designed to lift, tighten, and rebalance the face without surgery. At Pure Youth Wellness & Aesthetics in Boynton Beach, FL, MINT™ PDO thread treatments are customized to restore facial balance, enhance contours, and stimulate natural collagen production for long-lasting rejuvenation.
A mandatory consultation is required before receiving MINT™ PDO threads. Your provider will assess your medical history and current medications, assess skin laxity and facial anatomy to ensure proper facial balance, discuss your treatment goals and expectations, determine the appropriate thread type, placement, and quantity, and review potential risks, benefits, and aftercare guidelines to ensure safe and optimal results.
PDO (polydioxanone) threads are dissolvable, medical-grade sutures placed beneath the skin to gently lift lax tissue, enhance facial contours, and encourage natural collagen production. Once placed, the threads anchor to the tissue and are repositioned to create a subtle lift similar to a non-surgical facelift.
As the threads dissolve naturally over time, they continue to improve skin texture, firmness, and structure by triggering the body’s collagen response. PDO threads are commonly used for thread lifts, facial balancing, jawline contouring, midface support, and skin tightening.
Although MINT™ PDO threads are considered safe, possible side effects may include:
Most side effects resolve on their own. If symptoms persist or worsen, contact your provider.
PDO threads are inserted beneath the skin to lift sagging tissue and stimulate collagen. As the threads dissolve, collagen production continues to improve firmness and facial balance.
Results are visible right away, with ongoing improvement over the next 2–4 weeks as swelling decreases. Best results appear once the threads have fully settled.
PDO threads dissolve within 6–8 months, but collagen stimulation can last up to 1 year, depending on skin quality, number of threads, and lifestyle factors.
PDO threads are minimally invasive. Most patients resume daily activities within a few days, avoiding strenuous activity and facial pressure.
Local anesthesia is used. Patients may feel pressure or mild discomfort during insertion, but pain is generally minimal.
Ideal candidates have mild to moderate skin laxity and are seeking a non-surgical lift or facial balancing solution. A consultation is required to determine eligibility.
Yes. PDO threads may be combined with fillers, neurotoxins, laser treatments, or skin rejuvenation services for enhanced facial balance and lift.
