Before & After
What is a Thread Lift (Silhouette InstaLift)?
A Thread Lift, specifically the Silhouette InstaLift, is a non-surgical facelift technique that uses biodegradable threads to lift and reposition sagging facial tissue. These threads are made of polylactic acid (PLA), a substance that is gradually absorbed by the body and also stimulates collagen production, enhancing the skin’s natural structure and firmness over time.
How Does the Silhouette InstaLift Work?
The Silhouette InstaLift works by inserting threads with tiny, bidirectional cones under the skin. These cones anchor the threads and lift the deeper layers of the skin. As the threads are absorbed over time, they trigger collagen production, which further tightens and rejuvenates the skin.
What Areas Can Be Treated with a Thread Lift?
Thread Lifts are particularly effective for addressing sagging skin in the mid-face, jawline, and neck. This procedure can also improve the appearance of nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and jowls, giving the face a more contoured and youthful look.
Who is a Good Candidate for Silhouette InstaLift?
Ideal candidates for the Silhouette InstaLift are individuals in their 30s to 60s who are experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity. If you’re looking for a less invasive alternative to a traditional facelift with minimal downtime, this procedure might be perfect for you. During your consultation, Dr. Antell will assess your skin quality, age, and aesthetic goals to determine if this treatment is right for you.
What is the Recovery Process Like?
One of the major benefits of a Thread Lift is the minimal downtime. Most patients can resume normal activities within a few days. You may experience some mild swelling, bruising, or discomfort immediately following the procedure, but these side effects typically resolve quickly. Dr. Antell provides comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
How Long Do the Results Last?
The results of a Silhouette InstaLift can last between 12 to 18 months, depending on individual factors such as skin type, age, and lifestyle. Over time, as the threads dissolve, your skin continues to benefit from the increased collagen production, maintaining a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.
