A thread lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses medical-grade sutures to draw loose nasolabial folds, sunken cheeks, and taut jowls. Silhouette InstaLift, outfitted with absorbable micro-cones that gently manipulate and reposition lax tissue, is the newest iteration of thread lift technology.
Compared to conventional thread lifts, Silhouette InstaLift produces superior and more immediate results. This procedure also stimulates collagen production, so the skin will continue to improve in its appearance over the course of several months.
Silhouette InstaLift is a great alternative for people wishing to minimize visible facial signs of aging without undergoing aggressive surgical options that require significant downtime.
More About Silhouette InstaLift
Who is this treatment for?
Silhouette InstaLift is safe for most people. However, because the sutures used in the procedure are placed in the fat layers of the skin, those with particular thin skin should consult a dermatologist before committing to it.
What are the expected results of this treatment?
The results of the treatment are immediately apparent. It improves contours and renders the cheeks and jowls firmer. Moreover, the boosted collagen production ensures that the skin will continue to rejuvenate for the next 3 to 6 months following the treatment.
Results last for 1 or 2 years—when the threads begin to dissolve. Taking proper care of the skin can help extend the effects of the treatment.
Silhouette InstaLift is a mainstay at our dermatology clinic. Our certified estheticians have used this technology to help hundreds of aging Canadians recharge their skin and restore their youthful appearance.
