A Silhouette treatment called InstaLift may be the right choice for you if your goal is to have a facial lift but not go under the knife. This is a non-invasive procedure that uses stitches to lift and tighten sagging, sagging skin. These sutures are easily absorbed and can provide natural-looking results that last for a long time.
Conical-shaped sutures are used
The surgeon uses small cone-shaped sutures to lift and reposition sagging facial tissues. The sutures will be inserted below the skin in specific locations. Most patients will need to wait less than 45 minutes.
They are resorbable
The Resorbable Silhouette InstaLift is a non-surgical facelift procedure. It is performed by a trained medical professional and has minimal side effects. These are just a few things to consider before you make the decision to have this procedure.
They are bidirectional
Silhouette InstaLift allows for a simple surgical procedure to lift and secure the tissue below it using biodegradable stitches. The surgeon doesn't need to cut the thread and does not have to resorb any affected areas. Bi-directional cones provide the best lift. The cost of silhouette Instalifts depends on the size of the area being treated.
They grab tissue
A physician performs a Silhouette InstaLift procedure to lift the sagging tissue. The procedure begins with topical sedation. The doctor then uses a suture to insert a thread into the underlying tissues and then lifts the tissue up. The suture is then trimmed to a smooth appearance, and the procedure is usually completed in 30 to 45 minutes. For three to seven days, patients can expect swelling, bruising, tenderness, and discomfort. While the threads eventually disintegrate, patients should refrain for a week from any strenuous exercise.
They are more minimally invasive than surgeries
Silhouette's InstaLift is minimally invasive and can correct moderate sagging or jowls. It can also improve skin firmness and elasticity. The procedure does not leave scarring and will last for three years. It can be performed under local anesthesia, and requires minimal downtime.
