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.

Was referred to Dr Ramirez by another doctor for weight management program. He and staff were very friendly and helpful from the minute I called to schedule an appointment. They got me in with a couple days. Dr Ramirez is very knowledgeable and discussed everything with me in detail and went through all my options to help me make a decision. His program is very cost efficient if your insurance doesn’t cover. I was so comfortable with him He I even selected him as my primary care physician for my insurance! He does it all!
