Many people are looking for cosmetic solutions to address signs of aging. While there are procedures, such as facelifts, patients may be apprehensive about more invasive options. On the other hand, injectables, like BOTOX® Cosmetic, and dermal fillers, may not provide you with the dramatic results you’re looking for. Thankfully, there’s another option: Silhouette InstaLift. This option utilizes threads to lift the skin while stimulating collagen production. Plus, it’s minimally invasive, which means you can achieve results similar to a facelift with minimal recovery time. If you’re looking for an alternative to traditional procedures, keep reading to determine if the Silhouette InstaLift is right for you.
What Is a Silhouette InstaLift?
A highly proven minimally invasive procedure to improve the look and feel of the face, the Silhouette InstaLift has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) since 2015 and has been routinely performed in Europe for roughly 15 years.
This procedure involves the insertion of thin, dissolvable threads beneath the skin of the face, along with a series of tiny cones strategically spaced on each of these threads. Once in place, these cones anchor subcutaneously to lift and suspend skin, thereby tightening it in certain areas. In addition to lifting skin instantaneously upon implantation, the cones trigger an autoimmune response in the body that causes fibroblasts to generate collagen production, further rejuvenating and tightening the skin in targeted areas.
What Are the Applications of a Silhouette InstaLift?
The Silhouette InstaLift has proven quite effective for patients in the early phases of facial and jowl laxity. It’s also ideal for patients looking to achieve subtle, natural results.
The areas of the face that stand to benefit most significantly from a Silhouette InstaLift include the nasolabial folds that stretch from the nostrils to the mouth, as well as the jowls along the neckline.
The procedure also addresses loose and drooping skin around the cheeks, jaws, and chin.
Ideal candidates for this procedure are those with light to moderate facial sagging due to age or time-related sagging after a previous surgical facelift.
