ABSORBABLE SUTURES

THE FIRST ABSORBABLE SUTURE FDA-CLEARED FOR COSMETIC FACIAL PROCEDURES

NON-SURGICAL, IMMEDIATE AND LASTING LIFT

Silhouette InstaLift® is the only non-surgical rejuvenating procedure that uses advanced Micro-Suspension Technology™ to offer immediate and lasting results.*

MINIMAL DOWNTIME, LONG LASTING RESULTS

The procedure only takes under an hour and is done right in your doctor’s office. InstaLift also has minimal downtime with most signs of treatment (ex: bruising, swelling, and tenderness at the treatment site) dissipating within 24–48 hours. Patients can get right back to their activities and enjoy an instant lift in the cheeks, while adding volume over time for long lasting results.

 

MICRO SUSPENSION TECHNOLOGY™

Silhouette InstaLift® is a treatment unlike any other. Our Micro Suspension Technology™ is comprised of micro cones that are placed in the deepest layer of mid-facial skin. It delivers an immediate lift and gradually restores lost facial volume of the mid face by activating your own natural collagen production for a more youthful appearance that continues to improve over time. The sutures and cones are made from poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), a well-known biomedical copolymer that is biocompatible and biodegradable 1,2,†

IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS 


Silhouette InstaLift should not be used in patients with any known allergy or foreign body sensitivities to plastic biomaterial or in situations where internal fixation is otherwise contraindicated, (e.g. infection.) The device should not be used in patients appearing to have very thin soft tissue of the face in which the implant may be visible or palpable. 


Like all procedures of this type there is a possibility of adverse events, although not everybody experiences them. Adverse events include but are not limited to infection, minimal acute inflammatory tissue reaction, pain, swelling and edema, transient hematoma or bruising and transient rippling or dimple formation. For more safety information, please consult with your physician and the patient labeling that can be found by visiting our website at www.instalift.com.

*A study of 100 patients treated with Silhouette InstaLift. Results were based on patient satisfaction surveys sent at 1 week post-treatment (n=28) and at 3 months posttreatment (n=47). Improvement in midfacial deficits was evaluated by clinical reviewers at 3 and 6 months post-treatment using a volume deficit scale (0=none, 1=minimal, 2=mild, 3=moderate, 4=significant, and 5=severe) (n=91). The majority of patients started with an average deficit of 3.Model is a real patient treated with Silhouette InstaLift by Tam Nguyen, MD.
