MINT™ PDO Thread Lifts in New Jersey

Do you dream of smoothing wrinkles, restoring firmness and elasticity, and achieving an appearance that better reflects your youthful energy? If so, a MINT™ PDO thread lift may be the solution you’ve been seeking. Safe, effective, and offering immediate results with little to no downtime, this groundbreaking procedure offers a minimally invasive alternative to cosmetic surgery.

For many patients, a MINT™ PDO thread lift, also sometimes referred to as a “non-surgical facelift”, is the ideal treatment for addressing fine lines, skin laxity, and other mild symptoms of aging. Precise and highly customizable, it tightens skin and stimulates collagen production through the placement of synthetic polydioxanone (PDO) sutures beneath the skin’s surface. Over time these sutures dissolve, triggering the body’s natural wound healing processes and contributing to long-lasting facial rejuvenation.

At Dermatology Institute and Laser Center, Dr. Ros and her world-class team specialize in achieving beautiful and natural-looking outcomes using cutting-edge MINT™ PDO threads. To learn more about thread lifts and whether or not this procedure may be the right option for your particular needs and treatment goals, book an appointment at our Clifton or Rockaway clinic location today!

How A PDO Thread Lift Works

During a PDO thread lift procedure, multiple sutures are placed into the deeper layers of skin beneath targeted treatment areas to address sagging, wrinkles, and other signs of aging. The patented MINT™ thread (Minimally Invasive Non Surgical Thread) we use at Dermatology Institute and Laser Center is manufactured with tiny barbs press-molded to its surface, which effectively catch onto tissues and allow for precise manipulation and long-lasting results.

MINT™ PDO is designed to naturally dissolve in the body, a completely safe process that takes approximately 6-8 months. When placed, the barbed threads create micro-injuries in the layers of skin beneath the treatment area and trigger the body’s natural wound-healing responses. As a result, collagen and elastin production are stimulated, processes that continue to powerfully rejuvenate the skin long after the sutures are gone.

MINT™ PDO thread lift treatments are performed in our state-of-the-art office. Local anesthetic is administered to ensure your comfort and threads are expertly placed by Dr. Ros using an ultra-fine cannula (surgical needle). The entire procedure usually takes no more than about 45 minutes.

This treatment is highly versatile and can be used to tighten and lift a wide variety of different areas including the jawline, nasolabial folds, cheeks, brows, neck, and areas around the eyes and mouth.

Good Candidates For Thread Lifts

If you are looking to reverse mild aging symptoms such as fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin, but aren’t wanting or aren’t yet ready for a surgical facelift procedure, you may be an excellent candidate for a MINT™ PDO thread lift. Dr. Ros will consult with you to understand your treatment goals and ensure that your expectations are realistic before moving forward with this treatment option.

You may not be a good candidate for a thread lift if you:

Are over 65 years old
Have severe symptoms of aging, such as deep lines or excessively loose skin
Are pregnant or breastfeeding
Are a heavy smoker
Have certain diseases or autoimmune conditions

If Dr. Ros determines that you are not a suitable candidate for a MINT™ PDO thread lift, she will recommend other treatment options to help you achieve your cosmetic goals.

Recovery & Results

Compared to a surgical facelift, a MINT™ PDO thread lift requires very little downtime. You are likely to experience some tenderness or bruising in the first 48 hours after treatment and may need to avoid intense exercise, steam baths and saunas, and the application of makeup and/or skincare products. Dr. Ros will provide more detailed pre and post-procedure information tailored to your specific situation.

The sutures placed during a MINT™ PDO thread lift should completely dissolve within 6-8 months after treatment, leaving behind healthier, more elastic skin. The results of a thread lift can last for a year or more, depending on the circumstances!

      Great staff and Dr’s in this location and also North Bergen. I have a very delicate skin condition (perioral dermatitis) and I remember I went to different Dr’s trying to figure out what I had this rash on my face and no Dr could’ve pinpoint the problem. As soon as Dr.Ross checked me, she pinpointed my problem and gave me a solution. I am so thankful for Dr. Ross and the rest of the staff and Dr’s.

      Dr Ros was so thorough and compassionate.  She took her time, listening to all of my elderly mom's questions and concerns.  It was a delicate situation and Dr. Ros was excellent!! Alex prepped my mom before she saw Dr. Ros.   Without Alex's suggestion for my mom to get a body check, the hidden pre-cancerous spot might not have been detected and treated. Thank you for the extra care.  Mabel was also part of the excellent team.  Thank you. If I could, I would give 10 stars!
