・Those who wish to rejuvenate skin without using a scalpel.

MINT Lift Mini is a powerful facelift procedure using threads to improve visible aging signs such as wrinkles, saggy skin, and fine lines. For MINT Lift Mini, the procedure utilizes a combination of new ingredients: poly-L-Lactic acid (PLLA) and polycaprolactone (PCL) for the thread to make it more flexible and durable; thus, this offers a more natural pull along the face line. The pulling effect will be continued by the threads for about 2 years until the thread is fully absorbed into the body.

MINT Lift Mini is a non-surgical facelift performed on the mid-face to restore the sharper jawline and V-line for the youthfulness of the patients. One of the ideal benefits worth mentioning for the treatment is that the procedure is non-incisional and hence patients do not have to worry about scarring.

Moreover, the materials used to compose MINT thread are completely safe with FDA approved and they are biodegradable, which means after some time beneath the skin, the threads are capable of dissolving completely, leaving no decayable residues which could risk bacterial infections later on.

1. Consultation and examination of the skin condition
2. Anesthesia will be given
3. Blunt lead spinal needle will be inserted into the treatment area
4. MINT lift thread will be passed through the spinal needle
5. Spinal needle will then be removed.
6. The end of thread will be pulled tight to ensure that the thorn is hooked within the skin.
7. After all the threads are inserted and the balance checked, the threads will be cut.
