This patient underwent a non surgical rhinoplasty using MINT Thread Lifts to refine the shape of the nose and improve facial balance.

The treatment lifted the nasal tip, straightened the bridge and slightly widened the nostrils, which may also help improve airflow and breathing.

This photo was taken immediately after treatment, so some swelling is expected and will continue to settle over the coming weeks.

Individual results vary.

Product Information:
MINT (TM) THREAD LIFT The MINT synthetic Threads are made of PDO ( Polydioxanone).
This material that has been used in surgical sutures for over 30 years and is completely absorbable by the body.
MINT Thread Lift is a minimally invasive procedure that redefines and restores lost elasticity and volume in the face, lower jaw, neck, cheeks and eyebrows for a youthful appearance. It is less invasive than traditional facelift surgery.
MINT PDO threads cause the fat tissue to contract, producing a skin tightening effect.
PDO threads dissolve around 6-9 months after insertion and create cellular renewal and collagen stimulation to maintain the lift for another 6-9 months.
The MINT Thread lift procedure takes approximately 30-60 minutes and local anaesthetic is used to minimise any discomfort.
Risks associated with treatment:
Patients can experience mild swelling and bruising after treatment which subsides within a few days.
Adverse reactions include infections, erythema, inflammation, foreign body sensation.
Check with your healthcare professional to see if MINT LIFT is a suitable procedure for you.

A common concern as we age is the deepening lines around the mouth, known as nasolabial folds.

They're not simply wrinkles. They develop as we lose volume through the cheeks, our skin changes and facial support naturally decreases over time.

That's why treating the fold itself isn't always the answer. Often, restoring support higher in the face creates a softer, more natural result.

Every face is different, and every treatment plan should be too.

We've all seen cosmetic treatments that don't look quite right.
Natural results don't come from using less product. They come from choosing the right treatment for the right person.
Dr Babak believes every face is different. Which is why he never follow trends or copy someone else's treatment plan.
Sometimes the best result comes from doing less or treating an area you hadn't even considered.
His goal is never to change your face. It's to help you look refreshed, healthy and the best version of yourself.

Hi, I'm Dr Babak Hedayati, the doctor behind On Point Aesthetics.

When you visit OPA, every consultation and every treatment is with me.

I believe cosmetic medicine should never be about changing the way you look. It's about helping you look refreshed, healthy and confident, while still looking like yourself.

I've been a doctor for more than 25 years, working in Anaesthesia, Intensive Care and Medical Education. I completed the New Zealand Society of Cosmetic Medicine Diploma, the only specialist qualification leading to independent practice in cosmetic medicine in New Zealand, and I'm now proud to be an examiner and trainer for the Society.

For me, cosmetic medicine is a partnership. I'll take the time to understand your concerns, explain your options honestly and recommend only the treatments I believe are right for you.

Sometimes that means treatment. Sometimes it means waiting. Sometimes it means doing nothing at all.

My goal has always been the same. I don't want people to notice you've had cosmetic treatment. I want them to notice that you look refreshed, healthy and well.

Looking good should never mean looking different.

If you're considering cosmetic medicine and would like honest, personalised advice, I'd love to welcome you to OPA.

During your 40s, collagen loss becomes more noticeable and volume changes begin to appear.

Treatment plans often focus on restoring balance while maintaining natural facial movement.

Common treatment options include:
• Wrinkle reduction
• Volume restoration
• Skin rejuvenation
• Medical skincare
• Combination treatment plans

The aim is to help you look refreshed, not different.
