5 Reasons You Should Consider Instalift Over a Facelift
NON-SURGICAL FACELIFT NORTHERN VIRGINIA
A Silhouette InstaLift is a non-surgical alternative to a traditional facelift and uses biodegradable sutures with cones that grab hold of tissue for maximum lifting in the cheeks and jowls.
The procedure also increases collagen production, which helps skin become thicker, stronger, and more hydrated.
If you are interested in lifting your skin, reducing laxity, and improving facial contours without surgery, anesthesia, or downtime, Silhouette may be right for you.
Here are 5 reasons why you should consider a Silhouette InstaLift over a surgical facelift in Northern Virginia.
1. SILHOUETTE INSTALIFT PRODUCES IMMEDIATE IMPROVEMENT
Silhouette InstaLift produces instant and continuous results that improve over time.
Immediately after treatment, you will notice that your skin is smoother, lifted, and rejuvenated and that you look refreshed and younger. This effect is due to the Silhouette absorbable sutures that suspend loose skin in one or more areas of the face.
In the coming weeks and months, the sutures and cones trigger a wound healing response that boosts collagen and elastin – vital components of the skin’s underlying structure.
2. IT REQUIRES LITTLE TO NO RECOVERY
Another reason why you should consider a Silhouette InstaLift over a traditional facelift is that it’s non-surgical and has minimal downtime.
Most patients are able to return to work and normal activities in 1-2 days, and any bruising or swelling typically subsides in 2-3 days.
3. THE PROCEDURES LIFTS SKIN AND ADDS VOLUME
Not only does a Silhouette InstaLift reposition loose skin and alleviate laxity, it also adds volume for a fuller and revitalized appearance. The latter is a benefit that a traditional facelift is unable to achieve.
4. IT CAN BE PERFORMED WITH LOCAL ANESTHESIA IN AN OFFICE SETTING
Unlike a facelift, which must be performed in a surgical facility under general anesthesia, a Silhouette InstaLift takes place in your doctor’s office with local anesthesia.
In most cases, it can be completed in 45-60 minutes, and you are able to drive yourself home afterwards.
5. SILHOUETTE INSTALIFT ACHIEVES LONG-LASTING RESULTS
Treatment benefits from a Silhouette can last up to 18 months. These results allow patients seeking facial rejuvenation to test the waters, without having to commit to the permanent effects of a facelift.
