Silhouette Instalift about 6 weeks ago. Can you get an infection after this many weeks?

Although it is uncommon to have a complication 6 weeks after silhouette instalift, it is not impossible. Alternatively, your symptoms and your instalift procedure could be unrelated. For example, you could be experiencing a dental problem.  The only way to know for sure is to see your treating physician. Once you are evaluated and diagnosed, a plan can be made either for treatment there or for consultation with another specialist.   Since you are in discomfort and the symptoms are new, it is important to call her office and let her staff know that you are concerned and need to be seen.  Any physician who does procedures should be willing to see those patients afterward.I hope this answered your question.  Best wishes.

Infection is possible, and needs to be ruled out. The only way is via a consultation with your specialist who performed the procedure in the first place. Other reactions may include suture reactions or a reaction to the product itself. Solutions are always possible. Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
