MINT Lift (43cm)
Recommended for
- Those who want a powerful lifting effect
- Those who want to use dissolvable threads
- Those concerned about nasolabial folds
- Those who are averse to facelift surgery but want to lift firmly
- Those concerned about cheek sagging
This is a non-incisional lifting treatment that lifts the fat layer and SMAS layer using a dissolvable thread (PDO polydioxanone).
'MINT Lift' has the characteristics of being thick and taking a long time to be absorbed.
In addition, because it has a special structure as if 'wings' were attached, it can firmly catch the tissue and obtain a solid lifting effect.
It improves the sagging of the face line caused by aging, sharpens the face line, and a face-slimming effect can be expected.
The inserted MINT Lift thread continues to stimulate the dermis, increasing the production of collagen and elastin around it, so even after the thread dissolves and disappears, the effect firmly continues.
Features
MINT Lift's thread is made of a component absorbable by the body (PDO polydioxanone) that is also used in surgery, and it is a highly safe thread approved even by the U.S. FDA (an administrative agency equivalent to Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare). It remains in the body for about 6 months, after which it is gradually absorbed and disappears, so it has the characteristic of not remaining in the body as a foreign object. Threads generally used for lifting have fuzzy, barb-like protrusions, and they lift sagging by catching the barbs on the tissue inside the skin. Conventional threads created barbs by cutting notches into the thread. Such conventional threads, called cutting threads, created barbs by cutting notches into the thread, but they had the drawback of lacking strength and durability, such as the thread's thickness becoming thin and the barbs bending easily. In contrast, MINT Lift does not cut notches but adopts a structure as if attaching the barbs.
