I am an advocate of thread lifts and have been using them in my practice for some time – they are a viable option for women experiencing loss of jawline and cheek bone definition who seek a less invasive solution to the effects of early ageing.

The Silhouette Lift offers predictable results with minimal intervention- sometimes only requiring a small surgical removal of loose skin at the temple, however the new kid on the block, Silhouette Soft is making its mark.

Even lesser invasive, Silhouette Soft is the next generation thread lift – results last around 18months (less than the Silhouette Lift) but the technique takes under an hour and can be performed in the office.

This alternate thread lift utilises dissolvable, dual purpose threads and cones – they anchor the thread in place whilst the skin settles in place and also stimulate production of that magical substance, collagen to help plump and firm target areas.

If you are seeking a subtle, instant rejuvenating lift with very little downtime then you would be very happy with this product.  Not suitable for all however so patient selection is important and a thorough consultation is needed before the procedure is performed.
