Silhouette Lift: The True Non-Surgical Facelift!

 Silhouette Lift: The True Non-Surgical Facelift.

Our skin, as it loses elasticity, experiences aging as the facial fat moves downwards due to gravity, leading to loss of volume and sagging that results in wrinkles. The once-elastic facial contours sag, transforming from a V-line to a duller U-line, often resulting in an aged appearance. This skin aging is a universal experience with age, and while many may not consider it until it becomes evident, the loss of elasticity and deepening wrinkles often lead to stress and attempts at various home skin care routines.

Since skin, once deteriorated, is quite challenging to restore, even with consistent home care, it's difficult to regain its former elasticity.  Consequently, many people experiencing noticeable aging symptoms and related stress are now exploring Thread Lifts, where fine threads are inserted under the skin to lift sagging areas, improving wrinkles and sagging for immediate effects. Among these, interest in Silhouette Lift, which improves sagging skin and volume simultaneously, thus inducing both lifting and tightening effects, is on the rise.

Silhouette Lift is a lifting procedure using SILHOUETTE SOFT thread lift with PLLA (poly-l-lactic acid) medical threads approved by the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) to reconstruct facial skin. The threads used in Silhouette Lift are cone-shaped with projections. Once inserted into the face, these projections move between knots, inducing collagen production in the dermal layer, reconstructing the skin layer.

The threads used in this procedure gradually decompose and are absorbed by the body over time. During this process, collagen gradually regenerates, reviving facial volume and even addressing double chins, offering an overall V-line effect and volume, making it a popular procedure compared to traditional thread lifts.

Particularly, in Silhouette Lift, the cone-shaped projections that move between knots find their optimal position during the procedure, allowing for natural improvement effects without any unnatural feeling or foreign body sensation, regardless of facial expressions and muscle movements. Immediate effects can be visibly observed after the procedure.

Over time, the effects of the procedure are maintained as the thread dissolves, promoting collagen production, thus allowing for a more natural and sustained skin lifting effect. Although individual differences exist, typically, the effects of Silhouette Lift last about 1.5 to 2 years, and even after 2 years, the threads do not completely dissolve but are absorbed and decomposed within the body, so there is no need for concern.

Even after the threads dissolve, the regeneration of the collagen layer continues, so one can expect long-term effects, making it a sought-after lifting procedure. This procedure is an effective lifting method for those experiencing reduced facial volume, significant skin sagging, who want to improve skin elasticity and volume simultaneously, or have many fine lines and desire an immediate lifting effect without surgery. However, Silhouette Lift is not just a simple thread lift; it is a procedure that can also enhance volume through collagen regeneration, thus requiring delicate techniques, expertise, and a high understanding of Silhouette Lift.

This is because the extent of thread insertion, the direction of pulling, etc., vary depending on an individual's skin condition, tissue characteristics, and the current degree of aging. Furthermore, the choice of cosmetic treatment varies depending on each individual's unique skin condition and objectives. Therefore, if you desire to improve both the V-line and volume of your face, it is crucial to choose the right lifting method for you after a detailed consultation and individual diagnosis with experienced medical professionals.
