Immediate skin tightening & sustainable collagen regeneration
Silhouette Soft thread lifting for firmer skin
Your skin looks sallow and tired? Are individual areas slowly moving downwards or hanging too much? Then a Silhouette Soft thread lift is just right for you!
With time and increasing age, the skin's natural support structure weakens. How quickly this process progresses depends on individual factors, such as genetic predisposition and which environmental influences one is increasingly exposed to. The body's own collagen production decreases and the skin becomes flabbier. If you shy away from a surgical facelift, then the double-action Silhouette Soft thread lift is right for you!
What is a Silhouette Soft thread lift?
A thread lift is a non-surgical procedure for skin tightening. In this lifting method, special threads are inserted into the subcutaneous fatty tissue with an ultra-fine needle under slight tension. By inserting the threads, the skin is tightened and sagging areas are lifted. No anesthesia, just local anesthesia and virtually no downtime for you. The threads are broken down by the body within approximately 18 months, as they are made of polylactic acid. The threads are very well tolerated and have been used in medicine for many years. Don't worry, the lifting effect lasts beyond the degradation of the threads.

Course of treatment
First, your doctor marks the vectors on your face in whose direction the Skin tightening is performed. Usually we put two to three sutures per side. Then you will get a local anesthesia is administered at the entry and exit points of the sutures. Now the doctor places the sutures into the subcutaneous tissue with a guide needle and then brings them out again at the previously marked point. At this point, the sagging parts of the face or neck are fixed to firmer parts of the face or neck and tightened. The rest of the thread, which is outside the body, is cut off and the end piece is sunk into the skin. The tightening is already visible directly after the Silhouette Soft treatment and lasts for about 3 to 4 years. The procedure can be repeated at any time.
How many sutures are necessary depends on the patient. Also whether the treatment is done all at once or in several sessions. Your doctor will determine the best procedure together with you.
The Silhouette Soft treatment combines two Modes of action:
- Firstly, as soon as the threads are placed, the lifting effect is already visible. Your sagging skin areas are immediately back to normal. tight.
- On the other hand: During their dissolution time, the polylactic acid threads stimulate the body's own Collagen production, which supports the skin from the inside, even after the stitches are gone.
