Non-Surgical Thread Lift / Mint™

Non-surgical thread lift is a treatment that helps to lift and tighten the skin. This procedure is a less invasive alternative to the surgical face-lift and produces similar results. A single treatment session can address sagging skin and wrinkles on the upper, mid and lower areas of the face, creating firmer, smoother skin for a more youthful look.

The ageing process affects everyone to some degree, and the way the face changes in appearance will vary from person to person. In general, weakening of the skin’s structure and facial muscles will lead to the development of various ageing-related conditions. Concerns such as frown lines, forehead lines, crow’s feet, nose to mouth lines, a downturned mouth and jowls can affect the look of an appearance that is youthfully fresh and energetic.

At Ambra Aesthetic Clinic we may recommend the MINT™ treatment as a safe and effective anti-ageing solution. MINT stands for Minimally Invasive Non-surgical Threads which are made from absorbable polydioxanone – a material for sutures that has been used in the medical industry for many years. The tiny threads are inserted just beneath the surface of the skin at specific areas around the face. They attach themselves to the sagging skin which can then be adjusted to help create the lifting effect. Polydioxanone also has the ability to stimulate the production of new collagen which helps to improve the firmness and flexibility of the skin.

Our practitioners will prescribe a course of antibiotics for you to take before and after the treatment which helps to reduce the risks of developing complications. A single treatment is all that is required for long-term results that revitalise the appearance and temporarily pause the signs of ageing. Many of our patients report a noticeable difference immediately after the treatment, which can last for up to 12 months.
