MINT™ PDO
Backed By
Science & Innovation
MINT™ stands for Minimally Invasive Nonsurgical Thread. It is a monofilament suture made out of complex sugar polydioxanone (PDO). There are barbs molded along the thread that anchor into the fat pads of the skin and reposition tissue to give a non-surgical lift and reduce the signs of aging.
PDO sutures have been used in cardiovascular and orthopedic surgeries for over 30 years. This technology was studied and refined in countries like South Korea where MINT™ PDO was founded. MINT™ has since become a globally recognized brand with certifications in multiple countries.

Patented Technology
PRESS MOLDED BARBS
Conventional sutures cut their barbs from the core of the thread which affects its integral core and leads to faster barb degradation. The barbs of MINT™ PDO threads are press molded onto the surface of the thread to maintain its structural integrity over a longer period of time.
CUT VS MOLDED
Here is a comparison chart of barb degradation rates up to 2 weeks after insertion between MINT™ PDO and conventional cut sutures.
360° HELICAL DESIGN
During the press-molding process, the barbs are positioned in a 360° helical pattern around the MINT™ PDO threads. This design allows the PDO thread to better anchor onto the 3D structures of the skin for powerful repositioning effects.
Clinically Studied for Safety and Efficacy
MINT™ PDO is one of the few PDO threads in the market to have been clinically studied for its safety and efficacy. With more than 6 years of published articles and journals to support the benefits of PDO thread lifts, we can proudly say MINT™ threads are backed by science and research.
