Mint Lifting Threads in Brisbane

Mint Lifting Threads offer a non-surgical option for skin rejuvenation, designed to gently lift and tighten sagging facial skin for a refreshed appearance. This treatment provides a subtle, natural-looking lift to restore your skin’s firmness and youthful contours.

What Are Mint Lifting Threads?

Mint Lifting Threads are dissolvable sutures made from polydioxanone (PDO), a biocompatible material safely used in medical procedures for decades. When inserted into the subcutaneous layer of the skin, these threads provide an immediate lifting effect to sagging tissues.


Beyond the initial lift, the treatment stimulates the body’s natural collagen production. As the threads dissolve over several months, a new network of collagen forms, helping to maintain skin structure and firmness long-term.


Mint threads are a non-surgical treatment suitable for addressing mild to moderate skin laxity in areas such as the cheeks, jawline, and neck, assisting in facial rejuvenation with gradual, natural-looking results.

Our process

The Mint Lifting Threads Treatment Process

Your thread lift treatment at BeautyFULL CMC is a carefully planned procedure designed for safety and effectiveness. From the initial consultation to the final follow-up, our qualified Cosmetic Nurses guide you through each stage to ensure you feel informed and comfortable.

01.
Consultation and Facial Assessment

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation. A Cosmetic Nurse will assess your facial anatomy, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine if Mint Lifting Threads are the right treatment for you. This is your opportunity to ask questions and understand the potential outcomes.

02.
Marking and Preparation

On the day of your treatment, your Cosmetic Nurse will map out the treatment area, marking the precise insertion points to achieve the desired lift. The area is then thoroughly cleansed, and a local anaesthetic is applied to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.

03.
Thread Insertion

Using a fine cannula, the Mint threads are carefully inserted beneath the skin. The threads have tiny barbs that anchor onto the soft tissue, allowing your practitioner to gently lift and reposition the skin into a more youthful contour.

04.
Collagen Stimulation

Once in place, the threads provide immediate support to the skin structure. Over the following weeks and months, they stimulate your body’s natural healing response, encouraging the production of new collagen around the threads for ongoing rejuvenation.

05.
Aftercare and Follow-Up

After the procedure, you will receive detailed aftercare instructions to support your recovery. While you may experience minor swelling or tenderness, this typically subsides within a few days. Results will continue to mature as collagen production increases, with the final outcome visible after several weeks.

Risks, Side Effects & Aftercare

Mint Lifting Threads are administered in a clinical environment by qualified Cosmetic Nurses to maintain high standards of safety. However, like any cosmetic procedure, there are potential side effects. Most are temporary and mild.

Common side effects can include:

  • Swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the insertion sites.
  • A feeling of tightness or pulling in the treated area.
  • Minor dimpling or puckering of the skin, which typically resolves on its own.

These effects usually subside within a few days to a week. To aid your recovery and optimise your results, we advise you to follow specific aftercare instructions, such as avoiding strenuous exercise, excessive heat exposure, and facial massages for a short period post-treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Mint Lifting Threads?

Mint Lifting Threads are medical-grade sutures made from polydioxanone (PDO), a biocompatible material that dissolves naturally in the body over time. They are designed with small barbs that anchor to the skin’s tissue, allowing for an immediate lift. This non-surgical treatment is used to address sagging skin on the face and neck, providing a refreshed and more youthful appearance while also stimulating collagen production.

Mint threads work in two ways. First, they are physically inserted under the skin with a fine cannula to gently lift and reposition sagging tissue, creating an immediate improvement in facial contours. Second, as the threads dissolve over several months, they trigger the body’s natural healing response. This process stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, which helps to firm the skin and improve its texture and elasticity for long-term rejuvenation.

The visible lift from a Mint thread treatment can be seen immediately. These results will continue to improve over the next 2-3 months as your body produces new collagen. While the threads themselves dissolve after about 6 to 9 months, the structural support from the new collagen can help maintain the results for up to 12 months or longer. Longevity can vary based on individual factors like age, lifestyle, and skin condition.

Downtime after a Mint thread lift is minimal compared to surgical procedures. Most clients experience some temporary swelling, bruising, and tenderness in the treated areas, which typically resolves within a few days to a week. You can usually return to your normal daily activities shortly after the treatment, although you will be advised to avoid strenuous exercise, dental work, and facial massages for a short period.

Mint threads are versatile and can be used to lift and tighten several areas of the face and neck that show signs of ageing. The most common treatment areas include the mid-face to address sagging cheeks, the jawline to reduce the appearance of jowls and create a more defined contour, the neck to tighten loose skin, and the brow area to achieve a subtle lift.

Mint threads are made from PDO (polydioxanone), a material that has been safely used in medical sutures for many years and is fully absorbed by the body. The procedure is considered safe when performed by a qualified and experienced practitioner in a clinical setting. As with any cosmetic treatment, there are potential risks and side effects, which will be discussed with you during your consultation at our Brisbane clinic.

Yes, Mint threads can be effectively combined with other non-surgical treatments to achieve more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Many clients pair their thread lift with volume enhancing treatments to restore facial volume, or with wrinkle treatments to address expression lines. Combining threads with treatments like PRP or Rejuran can further boost collagen production and improve overall skin quality for enhanced, natural-looking results.

You will notice an immediate lift in the treated areas right after the procedure. However, the final results will gradually appear over the following weeks and months. As the threads stimulate new collagen growth, your skin will become firmer, tighter, and smoother. The optimal outcome is typically visible around 2-3 months post-treatment, once the initial swelling has subsided and collagen production is well underway.

Complement Your Treatment

A Mint Lifting Thread treatment can be combined with other skin rejuvenation services to further enhance your results. Consider these complementary procedures for comprehensive skin revitalisation:

  • Rejuran: A skin healing treatment that promotes skin regeneration and health.
  • LED Light Therapy: Supports skin recovery and enhances radiance post-treatment.
