At RenuYou MedSpa & Wellness Center in Ankeny, IA, we understand how sagging skin and loss of firmness can make you feel less confident about your appearance. That’s why we offer PDO thread treatments using MINT® Lifting Threads and Smooth Threads — a gentle way to lift and tighten your skin without surgery or long recovery times.
Many people notice a subtle, natural-looking lift right away, and over time, these threads help your body produce more collagen. This means your skin gradually becomes firmer and smoother, giving you a refreshed look that feels like you, just a little more youthful.
MINT® PDO Thread Options
MINT® Lifting Threads
These threads feature tiny barbs that anchor under the skin to lift sagging areas like the jawline, neck, and brows. The threads provide immediate support and encourage collagen growth for lasting firmness.
MINT® Smooth Threads
Designed to improve skin quality rather than lift, smooth threads tighten the skin surface and stimulate collagen to reduce fine lines and improve texture over time.
Common Conditions Treated with PDO Threads
- Sagging skin on the face, neck, and jawline
- Loss of skin elasticity and firmness
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Hollow or sunken areas, such as cheeks and temples
- Skin texture irregularities
