💡 What Is MINT Thread Lift?

MINT (Minimal Invasive Non-Surgical Thread) Thread Lift is a non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatment that lifts sagging skin and enhances facial contours using medical-grade dissolvable sutures made of PDO (polydioxanone). It’s a quick and minimally invasive procedure widely performed in Korea for people who want a natural, V-shaped lift without surgery.

✨ Key Benefits

• Immediate lifting effect with continued collagen production
• Improved skin elasticity and firmness
• Minimal downtime and natural-looking results
• Long-lasting definition along jawline, cheeks, and neck
• Stimulates collagen for smoother and tighter skin

⚙️ How It Works

MINT threads are inserted under the skin using fine needles. Each thread has tiny barbs that anchor into tissue, allowing the skin to be lifted and repositioned. Over time, the threads dissolve naturally while stimulating collagen regeneration, helping maintain firmness even after the threads are absorbed.

⏰ Treatment Duration & Downtime

• Procedure time: 30–60 minutes
• Downtime: Minimal — mild swelling or tenderness may last 1–3 days
• Recovery: Most people resume normal activities within 24 hours

📍 Common Treatment Areas

• Jawline and lower face
• Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
• Marionette lines
• Cheeks and mid-face
• Neck and jowls
• Eyebrow or fox-eye lift

💰 Average Cost in Seoul

⏳ How Long It Lasts

⚠️ Aftercare Tips
