I am 38 years old and have been advised to have silhouette soft threads by my doctor. She said I'm the perfect candidate. She did not specify how many threads but I think one or two per side. I've been reading a lot into it and most reviews are quite negative. I have some premature jowl sagging which and the begging of marionette lines. Any advice is welcome! Am I better off with fillers? Can you feel the thread after recovery? I heard that you can't open your mouth wide... is that permanent?

Answer: Silhouette Soft Hi Silhouette Soft treatment is an ideal way to lift jowls, redefine the jaw line and reduce marrionette lines. Like every cosmetic procedure, if done by the right practitioner using the right tools in the right patient excellent outcomes can be achieved. Comparing fillers to sutures is difficult, both give results however if combined you achieve better outcomes. In my experience a minimum of three threads per side are required to gain optimum results.

Answer: Silhouette Soft | Thread vs fillers Dear LidaR, Thank you for your question. The key to improving a saggy face lies in the FILL and LIFT approach. In the absence of pictures, here is the general rule. Jowls are the downward migration of your medial cheek fat pads. Treatment is a 3 step process. 1. Fillers to restore areas of lost volume. In your case, the cheeks, marionette lines and the pre jowl sulcus. 2. Threads to lift your saggy jowls 3. Review in a month's time with a focus on global rejuvenation What is the key to looking youthful? The key to youth is to reposition, re-volumise and restore lost tissue. By firming, lifting and tightening skin, by adding volume where it has been lost, and by holding tissue together, we can achieve a DREAMLIFT. It all starts from the top, so we fill from top down. When we were younger, we had an inverted triangle face shape. As we age, our midface sags the most, resulting in the formation of jowls, and changing our face shape into a square. So the key here is to lift, while maintaining a natural, youthful you. I hope this is helpful to you.
