Smooth Threads

Tighten and rejuvenate the skin by stimulating collagen production!

SMOOTH THREADS

MINT, or minimally invasive non-surgical threads, Smooth Threads are PDO threads used in cosmetic procedures to rejuvenate skin and enhance texture. Unlike barbed threads, these smooth threads stimulate collagen production for improved elasticity and firmness. This minimally invasive treatment offers natural-looking results without surgery!

  • PDO threads are on the cutting-edge of aesthetic procedures. They are a non-invasive treatment that stimulates neocollagenesis through the body’s natural healing process, which increases collagen production and enhances blood flow. This will tighten the skin and improve overall texture and tone.

  • Smooth threads are embedded subdermally using a cannula and are dissolved and broken down by the body within 3–6 months. Placing threads subdermally initiates collagen production in the treatment area, which leads to increased volume and skin tightening overtime with effects lasting up to 24 months.

  • Smooth threads focus on skin rejuvenation and collagen stimulation, while lifting threads are geared towards immediate lifting and repositioning of sagging facial tissues. The choice between the two depends on the patient's aesthetic goals and the specific concerns they wish to address.

  • MINT Smooth Threads can be used to treat various areas of the face, including:

    Forehead, temples, cheeks, jawline, chin and neck.

    These threads are versatile and can target specific concerns such as scarring, sagging skin, fine lines, and loss of facial volume in these areas.

  • While neurotoxins paralyze muscles to smooth wrinkles and dermal fillers temporarily build volume and support, Smooth threads add in the missing biostimulation that neurotoxins and dermal fillers alone cannot produce. All three treatment modalities can be used in conjunction to provide the all-encompassing results you are looking for.

  • Topical numbing will be applied to treated areas to alleviate discomfort. Some swelling, bruising and tenderness is common, but overall, little to no pain occurs.

  • Around 2-3 days. Bruising, swelling and mild tension may be present. Recovery from the treatment is minimal. Strenuous activities like exercising should be avoiding for 1 week post-treatment.

  • The threads will encourage continued stimulation of your own collagen over the next few months. After a month, the body starts to ramp up its’ collagen production that will offer long-term support.
