Silhouette Soft is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment to lift the skin through suspension suture. It opens up new possibilities in anti-ageing treatment options for men and women.
The main component of Silhouette Soft is Poly L-lactic acid (PLLA), which is a well-known polymer that has been used for many years in biomedical and pharmaceutical applications, especially as resorbable suture, a drug delivery system and in surgery (used for orthopaedic fixation devices such as pins, rods and screws).
Developed by scientists in the USA using reconstructive and aesthetic surgical expertise, Silhouette Soft is composed of PLLA monofilament with moulded cones made of Lactide/ Glycolide.
The suture serves as scaffolding under the surface of the skin to lift soft tissues that are sagging. The cones play dual roles – to hold the threads in place, and stimulate the body’s production of collagen. In time, the fresh collagen will help to replace depleted facial volume due to ageing.
WHY SILHOUETTE SOFT?
Silhouette Soft is a state-of-the-art minimally invasive treatment suitable for both men and women. It gives a re-tightening effect that yields immediate results. The treatment will also stimulate the body to produce collagen, giving a long-lasting natural-looking youthful appearance.
HOW DOES SILHOUETTE SOFT WORK?
Silhouette Soft thread lift helps restore the skin on the face to a smoother and more toned appearance through a double-action effect – an immediate repositioning of the tissue and a gradual regeneration of collagen.
The effect from the repositioning of the tissue is instant. This is because of tissue compression and skin elevation at the time of implanting the suture. After the suture is inserted, the doctor will apply slight pressure on the treatment area in order to adjust the contours of your face and smoothen it, resulting in its face lift effect.
The main component of Silhouette Soft thread lift is Poly L-lactic acid (PLLA), a well-known polymer with excellent biocompatibility and is biodegradable. It has been used for many years in a number of biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. These include suture thread, orthopaedic pins, rods, screws and nails for bone fractures.
In addition, the Silhouette Soft suture has small cones that provide traction and fixation points. They cause a natural foreign body reaction that leads to the formation of new collagen. This will help to restore shapeliness to the face and neck.
BENEFITS OF SILHOUETTE SOFT
The Silhouette Soft thread lift treatment is minimally invasive and non-surgical. Therefore, the downtime is minimal. It provides an immediate face lift effect, and triggers the body to produce new collagen. The Silhouette Soft suture is made from safe and entirely re-absorbable material.
SILHOUETTE SOFT POST TREATMENT CARE
After the procedure, the recovery period is usually 1-3 days, occasionally longer for some patients.
Most patients are able to resume their daily activities in 1-3 days. However, patients are advised to refrain from engaging in vigorous sporting activity in the first 2 weeks after the procedure.
SAFETY & SIDE EFFECTS OF SILHOUETTE SOFT
Resorbable and biocompatible, Silhouette Soft sutures are made in the USA, and because of that, they are subject to numerous sanitary controls, ensuring that they are safe to use. They are made from Poly L-lactic acid (PLLA), which has been safely used for many years in pharmaceutical and medical applications such as suture thread, orthopaedic pins, screws and nails for bone fractures.
Silhouette Soft thread lift was developed from 6 years of R&D in permanent suspension sutures with cones used in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Since then, 150,000 treatments have been carried out so far.
For the European market, it is marked CE. Furthermore, the manufacturing site complies with the requirements of the ISO 13485 international standard.
