Silhouette Soft

‍

Silhouette Soft is a non-surgical facelift technique that uses biodegradable threads with bidirectional cones to lift and reposition sagging facial tissue. It is often referred to as a type of "thread lift", and it's used for facial rejuvenation without the downtime of traditional surgery.

‍

What Is Silhouette Soft?

• A minimally invasive, absorbable suture made of polylactic acid (PLA).
• Contains tiny cones that anchor the skin and stimulate collagen production.

‍

Common Treatment Areas:

• Jawline (jowls)
• Mid-face (cheeks)
• Nasolabial folds
• Neck
• Brows (mild lift)

‍

How It Works:

1. Under local anesthesia, threads are inserted under the skin using a fine needle.
2. The threads are then pulled to lift the targeted area.
3. The cones anchor the tissue in place.
4. Over the next few months, the PLA threads stimulate collagen production, enhancing the skin’s texture and firmness.

‍

Duration & Recovery:

• Procedure takes around 30–60 minutes.
• Minimal downtime – most patients return to normal activities in a few days.
• Results last around 12–18 months, depending on skin type, age, and lifestyle.

‍

Benefits:
