The term "Silhouette Facelift" refers to a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that aims to lift and tighten the facial skin. It is also known as a thread lift or a non-surgical facelift. The procedure involves the use of specialized sutures or threads that are inserted into the skin to lift and reposition sagging or loose facial tissues.
During a Silhouette Facelift, the surgeon inserts the threads into the subcutaneous tissue of the face using a needle or cannula. The threads have tiny cones or barbs that grab onto the skin, allowing the surgeon to gently lift and reposition it. The threads are then anchored in place, creating a subtle lifting effect.
The Silhouette Facelift procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and typically takes about one to two hours to complete. It is considered less invasive compared to a traditional surgical facelift, as it requires smaller incisions and has a shorter recovery time.
It's important to note that the results of a Silhouette Facelift may vary depending on individual factors such as skin laxity, age, and overall health.
It's recommended to consult with a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon to determine if this procedure is suitable for your specific needs and goals.

During the procedure, specially designed sutures are inserted under the skin through small incisions. These sutures create a lifting effect as they anchor the skin and support its structure. Over time, the sutures dissolve, promoting collagen production for long-lasting results.
Good candidates are individuals experiencing mild to moderate sagging of the skin on the face or neck. Ideal candidates should be in good health, have realistic expectations, and seek a non-surgical option for facial rejuvenation.
The procedure typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the extent of treatment and the areas being addressed.
Patients may experience some discomfort, but a local anesthetic is administered to minimize pain during the procedure. Many patients report the process as tolerable.
