We all experience sagging skin as we age – but we don’t all want a facelift. Surgery just isn’t appropriate for many anti-aging goals. What if you don’t want to look like you’ve had a procedure – just like you’ve recently been on an incredible vacation?
Ongoing advances in the cosmetic realm are offering up new possibilities. Today, Silhouette InstaLift is becoming known as the lunchtime facelift – because it’s just that quick and simple. Step in during your lunch break, and leave with lifted skin and renewed collagen growth in your future. Skip the knife and love your refreshed look. Now FDA-approved in the U.S. after many years of effective, safe use in Europe, the unique InstaLift threads allow for customized results tailored to each patient’s anti-aging needs.
Both men and women are finding subtle, natural-looking results without discomfort or downtime. Some lifting is immediate, and patients then experience enhanced collagen production for some time, with results lasting between 2-3 years. The InstaLift also helps to enhance results from other noninvasive treatments, including Botox, fillers, and laser resurfacing.
The power of lift is within your own skin! Discover the ULift, our ultrasound-guided approach to collagen regeneration and skin tightening.
With this proprietary approach, we use ultrasound to view areas of collagen and fat beneath the skin. This gives us a precise guide for skin tightening, lifting & contouring treatments. Your results will naturally enhance your skin and deliver gradual anti-aging that suits your personal features – because they are guided by your own collagen production.
The real beauty of the InstaLift is how straightforward and comfortable it is for patients. There is no general anesthesia necessary, only a local anesthetic. Once the face is numb, a string containing tiny biodegradable cones is inserted within the skin, at a depth of 5mm. Your physician guides the string through the subcutaneous tissue and extracts it at a predetermined point. This allows for immediate lifting, as well as stimulation of the skin for future collagen growth.
You may have heard of “string facelifts” in the past, as well as the negative side effects that could accompany them. While this treatment method has been used for some time, the materials involved in a Silhouette Instalift or PDO Novathreads lift are entirely different. These soluble materials dissolve over time to offer an improved version of facial threading. The materials are FDA-approved and yield predictable, safe results with a significantly lower risk of scarring.
Results can last between 2-3 years. Patients are able to maintain their results with Botox, fillers and laser treatments.
The biodegradable cones and strings typically dissolve between 6 months to one year after treatment. Collagen production will continue at a heightened rate after this point.
The InstaLift is ideal for patients with healthy skin and moderate sagging in the mid to lower face. This often translates to men and women in their forties who are seeing more significant signs of aging for the first time. The candidates who see the best results are hoping to improve:
