Silhouette Instalift.
Cheeks that stay up.
Silhouette InstaLift is an FDA cleared thread lifting technique that uses absorbable micro-cones to instantly lift sagging cheeks and lines around the mouth, giving immediate correction to aging skin. The threads and cones will slowly dissolve over the course of approximately one year. The Silhouette material has the added property of bio-stimulation. This means that you will stimulate new collagen as the threads dissolve, which makes the results last even longer. Silhouette InstaLift will last up to two years under optimal conditions. This innovative treatment is the ideal choice if you've had your fill with fillers but aren't looking to go under the knife.
Instalift is great used alone, or for optimal results, can be combined with filler.

What to Expect
The first step is your free consultation.
At your consult we will discuss your specific concerns.
Before Treatment
​
You’ll come in for a free consultation. During this appointment, it’s important to be open and honest about your expectations for treatment. It is also important to have realistic expectations when undergoing a non-surgical aesthetic treatment.This will help us tailor the treatment to meet your unique needs.
During Treatment
​
You’ll get a local anesthetic injected into the tissue just beneath your skin. Once the threads have been inserted, your physician will position them precisely where they need to be to achieve the lift you want. This in-office procedure will take approximately an hour.
After Treatment
​
After your Silhouette InstaLift insertion, you will need to cool the area with ice for a few hours. This will keep the bruising and swelling to a minimum. You may have some bruising, which will resolve over a few weeks. There may be minor bumps or irregularities in the surface which will slowly smooth out over the first week or two. Some people will have a bunching of their cheek tissue. This is okay and will smooth out quickly. It will also lead to a better volumization of the cheek area. You should wash your face gently and apply products as you normally would. Excessive face and neck movements, vigorous exercise and sports should be avoided for two weeks. Face down massages and any further facial treatments should also be avoided for 4 weeks.
