Silhouette Soft® The thread lift to rejuvenate the face

Silhouette Soft® treats the loose facial skin by restoring its volume with a natural result. The treated areas are:

• The eyebrows
• The forehead
• The cheekbones
• The hollow of the cheeks
• The nasolabial folds
• The bitterness folds
• The jowls
• The neck

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and lasts about thirty minutes.

Silhouette Soft® is an L-polylactic acid (PLA) lifting thread on which small cones are placed which allow the thread to anchor well in the tissues.

L-Polylactic Acid (PLA) is a material widely used in the manufacture of surgical suture threads and which benefits from several years of experience demonstrating its safety.

The lift threads and small cones are fully absorbable and gradually disappear in six to eight months. Therefore there is no allergy, no rejection or side effects.

On each thread 8, 12 or 16 cones are guided in opposite directions to each end of the suture, hence the term "bidirectional".

Depending on the indication to be treated, the doctor inserts Silhouette Soft® threads in different ways.

The doctor inserts the needle at an entry point at a depth of 5 millimeters. Then he guides the needle through the subcutaneous tissue to the point of exit. After that the treads are gently pulled in order to fix the cones in the skin tissue. Lastly, he makes a slight pressure of the treated area to tighten the skin and then cuts the ends of the son.

The treatment Silhouette Soft® has a double action.

Immediate lifting effect

Silhouette Soft® offers an immediate and lasting, lifting, and tightening effect. The volume of the face is restored and the lines are reshaped.

Regeneration of collagen

The threads act on the deep layers of the skin and naturally stimulate the production of collagen. This action promotes the increase of the volume of the depressed areas and restores the oval of the face in a progressive and perfectly natural way.

Silhouette Soft® is a minimally invasive treatment that allows you to return immediately to your social life. There is slight edema and some bruising during a week. Sometimes, a slight depression or irregularities of the skin can appear at the points of entry of the needles but these disappear a few days after the session.

In the hours following the session, the patient must rest and abstain from any intense effort.

The face remains sensitive against touching for two to four weeks. This is why it is not recommended during this period to practice sports, to go to a sauna or a Turkish bath as well as having a massage or facial care.

The effects of Silhouette Soft® threads are immediate and progressively improve in the months following the session. The final result lasts around 12 to 24 months.
