PDO Thread Lift in Phoenix, Tempe, and Glendale

Mint PDO Thread Lift

The MINT PDO Thread Lift is a non-surgical option for those who want the benefits of a facelift without going through a surgical procedure. The procedure improves the appearance of sagging skin and delivers a youthful look without painful or extended recovery. Valley Medical Weight Loss uses MINT threads for our PDO thread lifts in Phoenix, Tempe, and Glendale. MINT PDO threads are dissolvable sutures made of absorbable polydioxanone (PDO).  We offer two types of PDO threads: Smooth and lifting. 

MINT threads stand out from any other thread options because of the barbs that hold the suture in place. Additionally, MINT threads are the only FDA-approved threads for facial tissue fixation. These threads are stronger and deliver a longer-lasting lift than other types of threads. And on top of that, they cause minimal tissue reaction and trauma during the procedure. The MINT PDO thread is backed by over 6 years of clinical studies for safety and efficacy. It is the only PDO suture with two FDA clearances.

The PDO Thread Lift Process

• When you arrive for your procedure, you always get one-on-one attention from our providers, who specialize in PDO threads and other aesthetic procedures.
• You’ll get to discuss your health history, current concerns, and goals, so we can determine if PDO threads are the right option for you.
• If you’re new to PDO threads, we review the process from start to end for your treatment.
• The procedure starts with local anesthesia.
• Your provider will insert the dissolvable threads under the skin to create an immediate and natural-looking lift.
• Depending on the area, the procedure will take from 70 to 90 minutes.
• After your procedure, you’ll be able to leave and return to your life, as usual, the next day.
• Soreness may result from the placement of the threads, and some patients experience minor bruising or swelling, but these side effects typically resolve within a few days.
