What Is A PDO Thread Lift?
When you imagine a facelift, you probably think of the discomfort and recovery period that comes with traditional plastic surgery. At Kutis Medical Aesthetics, we offer a nonsurgical alternative: Minimally Invasive Nonsurgical Thread (MINT™) lifts. Also known as a PDO (polydioxanone) thread lift, MINT lifts are often a good choice for women and men who want to soften signs of aging without undergoing facelift surgery. Made from bioabsorbable materials, PDO threads are professional-grade sutures secured through the skin to boost collagen formation and lift drooping skin and furrow lines. Best of all, PDO thread lifts often take less than an hour to complete and require no downtime for recovery, making this treatment an excellent lunchtime procedure for those with busy schedules. To learn more about PDO thread lifting and the benefits of a MINT lift, schedule a consultation at our office in Henderson, NV.
How Does A PDO Thread Lift Work?
PDO thread lifts are performed as an outpatient procedure at our Henderson, NV practice and usually take about 60 minutes to finish. Before your treatment, we'll review any concerns you want to address and determine where to insert the threads for optimal results. Generally, we'll start by applying a numbing cream to desensitize the treatment areas so you can keep comfortable and relaxed. When you're ready, we'll gently insert the MINT sutures into your skin using a thin cannula (a hollow tube). After the thread has been positioned under your skin, it will be pulled to create a firmer, lifted appearance. Each thread takes just a few seconds to insert, and you can immediately get back to your day once the procedure is complete.
What Are the Benefits of A PDO Thread Lift?
You don't have to commit to surgery to attain a smoother, more youthful look. PDO threading offers immediate and long-lasting results, as well as a number of notable benefits:
- Collagen stimulation that provides glowing effects for years to come
- Outcomes that last longer than some other noninvasive rejuvenation choices (like injectables)
- Minimally invasive procedure that produces powerful outcomes
- Increased confidence in the way you look
In addition, MINT sutures are heavier than comparable PDO threads and are held in place with a patented barb system, leading to more secure, comfortable outcomes.
Kutis Medical Aesthetics Reviews
It was my first time getting lip fillers, I was a little nervous. Dr. Ramirez answered all my questions, he was very knowledgeable and experienced. I was blown away by the results, I got Botox as well. He did such a good job! Dr. Ramirez is the best! I highly recommend him! If I could give Kutis Medical Aesthetics 10 stars I would!
I’ve had nothing but amazing experiences at Kutis. The location is so cute and Dr Ramirez is the best. He’s thoughtful, thorough and friendly. The office staff is also really helpful and knowledgeable.
I have acne scars that has been bugging me for years. Have been coming here for 2 months for my treatment. It’s already having an effect without cutting or surgery. I have darker Asian skin so I am picky and didn’t want a doc to mess it up. Dr Ramirez is experienced enough with darker skin tones that I came in.
Love Dr. Ramirez. My mean lines (the 11s) are fading and I feel so much better. He listens to concerns and is very knowledgeable. I highly recommend!
Kutis is a Lifesaver and Blessing. After a very stressful year, the age started to creep and show; but Dr. Richmond managed to turn back the clock and revive the vibrance of youth. I highly recommend Kutis with their expertise, scientific research and technology, they are one step above the regular clinics. The compliments I receive are proof of the effectiveness of their treatments. Kudos To Kutis !
