What is a Non-Surgical Facelift/ Neck Lift?

A non-surgical facelift/neck lift is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure to lift the target area of the face and/or the neck. Sutures are inserted in the skin via tiny incisions that help lift the skin over the course of weeks and months. The bi-directional cones on the sutures attach to the sagging skin, redirecting it to the desired contour. The results from a Silhouette Instalift procedure will be more noticeable than results from fillers and will be longer-lasting, typically around eighteen to twenty-four months. Silhouette Instalift also promotes collagen production in the skin, so patients have noted a dramatic reduction in wrinkles and sagging, particularly in the mid-face, as well as improved firmness and elasticity.

What’s the First Step?

If you want a nonsurgical facelift or neck lift in Chicago, the process will begin with a consultation in Dr. Ogilvie’s office. Dr. Ogilvie will discuss your health history, aesthetic goals, concerns, and directions. He will then examine your target area and decide whether the Silhouette Instalift is the best way to achieve your goals.

Once he deems you are an ideal candidate for the treatment, he will draft a plan that you can take to the patient concierge for pricing and scheduling and to get any pre-treatment instructions.

What to Expect on the Day of a Non-Surgical Facelift

On the day of your non-surgical facelift/neck lift in Chicago, Dr. Ogilvie and his staff will welcome you and get you settled in the procedure room. You will be asked to sign off on the treatment plan to ensure there are no changes or questions. Once that is done, your target area will be marked, and a local anesthetic will be administered to help numb the surface of the skin.
Once you are numb, Dr. Ogilvie will start inserting the Silhouette sutures. Silhouette sutures are composed of special sugar molecules. The suture is inserted into the specified layer of skin and pulled tighter and higher. This improves sag in the skin and creates the appearance of youthfulness.

The silhouette is often associated with other thread lift procedures, but that comparison is not precisely apt. Silhouette offers significant improvements in technique and results over previous and other current thread lift options.

The entire treatment, from start to finish, should only take about one hour.

Non-Surgical Facelift Recovery

Some patients will experience mild soreness for 24-48 hours after the procedure, but there is usually no required downtime or recovery period after Silhouette. Over time, the suture will naturally dissolve. Results from Silhouette will typically last around 18-24 months without signs of wear.

Most patients are able to resume normal activities within a day or two, but it is still recommended that patients avoid strenuous activity for a week to ten days.
