Silhouette Lift

For patients in Virginia Beach and Newport News, Dr. Carney is proud to offer the Silhouette Lift. If you’ve ever desired a younger appearance and facial rejuvenation without having to undergo general anesthesia or spend time recovering from major surgery, a Silhouette Lift may be right for you.

What is a Silhouette Lift?

It is a non-invasive treatment for sagging facial tissue, ideal for addressing signs of aging including sagging jowls or deep creases, nasolabial folds and marionette lines, without major surgery.

A Silhouette Lift uses special sutures, called Silhouette Sutures, to lift and reposition sagging tissue. These sutures are tension sutures and absorbable by the body. The suture can be inserted from a small opening in the hairline, secured to the proper tissue in the jawline, then brought to the correct tension, and secured back in the hairline. According to the markers of the Silhouette Suture, typical treatment offers visible improvement for up to 2 years.

Silhouette Lift Benefits

• Relatively quick treatment options and requires only local anesthetic. Some classify it as part of the “Lunch-time Lift” category of treatments, which includes the dermal fillers.
• Requires only small insertion points hidden within the hairline.
• Can provide youthful looking results.
• Patients can return to normal activities in a couple of days, and marks should fade in 10 days, for a normal, but youthful appearance.
