Lift and tighten your skin
with MINT™ PDO threads
A PDO thread lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to lift and tighten sagging skin. At Origins Medicine & Aesthetics, we use MINT™ PDO threads, which are composed of polydioxanone, a biodegradable material that safely dissolves in the body over time. This treatment stimulates collagen production and improves skin elasticity and texture. Ideal for addressing concerns like sagging cheeks, jowls, and necklines, the PDO thread lift offers natural-looking results with minimal downtime, helping you achieve a rejuvenated appearance.
PDO thread lift treats:
- Sagging skin
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Jowls
- Nasolabial folds
- Marionette lines
- Neck laxity
- Drooping eyebrows
How does PDO thread lift work?
A PDO thread lift involves inserting polydioxanone (PDO) threads into the skin using fine needles. These threads create a supportive structure under the skin, providing an immediate lifting effect. Over time, the PDO threads stimulate natural collagen production, enhancing skin elasticity and firmness. As the threads dissolve within six months, the collagen continues to support the skin, resulting in long-lasting rejuvenation. This dual action of lifting and biological stimulation makes PDO thread lifts an effective, non-surgical option for facial rejuvenation.
Why MINT™ PDO threads?
MINT™ PDO threads are renowned for their superior quality and effectiveness in facial rejuvenation. Made from polydioxanone, a biocompatible and biodegradable material, these threads are FDA-cleared and offer enhanced safety and reliability. MINT™ threads feature a unique helical barbed design, which provides a stronger grip on the tissue, resulting in a more effective lift. This design also stimulates greater collagen production, promoting natural skin tightening and improved elasticity.

PDO thread lift FAQs
Who is a good candidate for a PDO thread lift?
A good candidate for a PDO thread lift is someone with mild to moderate skin laxity who desires a non-surgical solution for facial rejuvenation. Ideal candidates are typically in their late 30s to 50s, with relatively good skin quality.
How should I prepare for a PDO thread lift?
To prepare for a PDO thread lift, avoid taking blood-thinning medications, such as aspirin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), for about a week before the procedure. It is also advisable to avoid alcohol and smoking, as they can affect the healing process.
How long do the results of a PDO thread lift last?
The immediate lifting effect of a PDO thread lift can be seen right after the procedure. As the threads stimulate collagen production, the results continue to improve over the next few months. Depending on factors like age, skin condition, and lifestyle, the results can last up to one year.
Are there any side effects or risks associated with a PDO thread lift?
PDO thread lifts are generally safe, with minimal risks and side effects. Some common side effects include mild swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which usually resolve within a few days. Rare complications can include infection, thread migration, or asymmetry, but these are uncommon and can be managed with proper care and technique.
What are my instructions after a PDO thread lift?
After a PDO thread lift, you must follow your provider’s instructions, which may include avoiding strenuous activities, facial massages, and excessive facial movements for a few days. You must also keep your head elevated and apply cold compresses to reduce swelling.
How long does a PDO thread lift procedure take?
The procedure typically takes 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated.
Is a PDO thread lift painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. A local anesthetic is applied to numb the treatment area, ensuring optimal comfort throughout the process. Some patients may feel a slight pulling or tugging sensation as the threads are inserted, but this is well-tolerated.
How often can I get a PDO thread lift?
The frequency of PDO thread lifts depends on individual factors, including the degree of skin laxity and the desired results. Generally, the effects of a PDO thread lift can last up to one year. Many patients choose to undergo maintenance treatments every 12 to 18 months.
