Silhouette InstaLift is a minimally-invasive, resorbable suspension suture with bi-directional cones. The sutures lift and reposition subdermal tissue while the bi-directional cones hold the suture and facial skin in an elevated position.

The suture and cone material are both made of glycolide/L-lactide (PLGA) and over time they stimulate fibroblasts for gradual collagen maturation and are designed to reposition volume in the mid-face with a goal of a natural-looking result.

NON-SURGICAL, IMMEDIATE AND LASTING LIFT

Silhouette InstaLift is the only non-surgical rejuvenating procedure that uses advanced MicroSuspension Technology™ to offer immediate and lasting results.*

MINIMAL DOWNTIME, LONG LASTING RESULTS

The procedure only takes under an hour and has minimal downtime with most signs of treatment (ex: bruising, swelling, and tenderness at the treatment site) dissipating within 24–48 hours. Patients can get right back to their activities and enjoy an instant lift in the cheeks, while adding volume over time for long lasting results.

MICRO SUSPENSION TECHNOLOGY™

Silhouette InstaLift is a treatment unlike any other. Our Micro Suspension Technology is comprised of micro cones that are placed in the deepest layer of mid-facial skin. It delivers an immediate lift and gradually restores lost facial volume of the mid face by activating your own natural collagen production for a more youthful appearance that continues to improve over time. The sutures and cones are made from poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), a well-known biomedical copolymer that is biocompatible and biodegradable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Silhouette InstaLift FDA cleared?

Who is a good candidate to have the InstaLift procedure?

What are InstaLift sutures made of?

What can the InstaLift do to improve my appearance?

What areas of the face does the InstaLift Treat?

Silhouette InstaLift is an entirely new technology and procedure.

Rather than just repositioning the skin, Silhouette InstaLift now focuses on the underlying layers of the skin, because that is what really causes sagging. Another important advance is that the sutures are not permanent; they are absorbed by the body over time. As they are absorbed, they stimulate collagen renewal, which helps achieve a younger, natural look.

Who is a non-ideal patient?

The Silhouette InstaLift device should not be used in patients with any known allergy or foreign body sensitivities to plastic biomaterial or in situations where internal fixation is otherwise contraindicated, (e.g. infection).

The device should also not be used in patients appearing to have very thin soft tissue of the face in which the implant may be palpable or in patients with excessive heavy skin.

Are there any side effects that might happen with this procedure?

After placement, patients may experience a minimal acute inflammatory tissue reaction. Symptoms may include minor pain, swelling and bruising.

Material sensitivity / allergic reactions should be reported to your provider.

Implantation of foreign materials in tissue can result in histological reactions. Other potential side effects include sensory nerve injury, asymmetry or banding.
