This 43cm long thread has bi-directional barbs press-moulded along 35cm of its length. It has a sharp 19G needle attached on both ends of the thread.
The sharp needles allow for quick insertion and exit and are flexible to allow for controlled manoeuvring along structures of the skin. Cannulas are not necessary for this one-stop-shop thread.
What is MINT™
MINT™ is a lifting thread (facial tissue fixation thread) made of dissolvable material polydioxanone (PDO) with 360-degree, 3D helical barbs to pull and fixate skin tissue for wrinkle improvement. It is a PDO (Polydioxanone) to deliver safe and outstanding results. Developed using patented moulding pressed technology, the helically positioned 360˚, 3D barbs have high tensile and anchoring strength to provide superior results.
How safe is it
MINT™ threads are made from a complex sugar polydioxanone or PDO - a safe suture material that has been used in orthopedic and cardiovascular surgeries for over 30 years. Not only that, MINT™ is also backed by more than 7 years of published studies for its safety and is the first and only PDO suture in the market to have received dual FDA clearances.
What is PDO(Polydioxanone)
PDO(Polydioxanone) is a biodegradable polymer that has been used as a surgical suture. It naturally dissolves and absorbs in the human body and promotes skin elasticity by stimulating collagen synthesis. PDO is a safe raw material that is non-antigenic and fully dissolved within 6 months of the procedure.
