MINT™ PDO NOSE THREADLIFT
MINT PDO NOSE THREADLIFT
Not everyone wants to undergo a surgical procedure as this tends to result in a lengthy recovery period. MINT PDO Nose Threadlifts with Dr Chike provide suitable candidates a non-surgical alternative for those who are seeking excellent results with minimal downtime.
MINT PDO threads are made from absorbable polydioxanone (PDO), a biodegradable suture material that has been safely used for more than 30 years in surgical procedures.
This is safe a procedure that Dr Chike has performed many times. It is relatively quick and no cutting or incisions are involved; local anaesthetic is all that is required for patients to remain comfortable throughout. It is generally very well tolerated and most clients don't find it particularly painful.
The threads integrate into the skin’s tissue and are inserted into the skin via a cannula. The results are instant and many of our patients find they can resume their everyday activities shortly after treatment.
FAQ’S

weeks.
3) Do not open mouth too wide for 3-4 weeks (avoid dental treatment for 3 weeks if possible).

REVIEWS
Saw Dr Chike for my nose, as I didn't like the profile. All I can say is wow!!! I look amazing after my non-surgical nose job and I even got my lips done. Would recommend Chike to anyone.
- Emily Joanne
“I originally went to get lip filler,however from the onset Dr Chike advised against it and advised me that cheek fillers would be more beneficial. Though I still got the lip filler,overall It didnt satisfy my concerns. I eventually had the cheek fillers and have been amazed and satisfied at the difference to my face. Its given me the volume, fresh youthful look I have been lacking. I am never disappointed and he knows instinctively what I like and what suits..”

I have been seeing Dr Chike for many years now and would not go or trust anyone else when it come to fillers and Botox. Results are natural and he will always be truthful on what to do or not. I love the results every time and trust his expertise for life ! Plus he is such a nice man - it is always nice seeing him. Very gentle, pain and bruise free !

A brilliant experience from start to finish. Dr Chike knew exactly how to get my desired effects for my liquid rhinoplasty, and was confident throughout the entire procedure which helped to put me at ease. He was swift and very skillful. I am very happy with the results and with little to no pain.
He was also a great teacher to the staff member also present.
