Love It!!

I was on ready to get a mini facelift until I heard about the silhouette lift. I am so happy I did it. I had it done this afternoon by Dr Cynthia Golomb. She is an amazing dermatologist and I trust her with all of my cosmetic procedures. The procedure was done in less than 1 hour. I have minimal bruising. I saw immediate results in my lover face and corners of my mouth, which were starting to sag. I am 46 years old and want to wait until I am 50 to have a facelift. This is the perfect procedure for women who are not yet ready for facelift but need a pick up! I highly recommend it!! I will post pictures once my bruises go away

Oh can you please share a pic? I am almost 53 and wish I had started at 46. I already have my consult and want that extra push to know it is worth it. I am not looking to look 40, just not so saggy!

you look great? when was the worst of it?, as i am getting the same thing done next week?
May 23, 2019
The worst was the pain after. Not terrible pain but uncomfortable when making face movements like laughter and eating etc.

yes, i finally had this done also. you definitely feel little stings with the sutures until they settle into your face. i see a subtle result, but feel that it gets even better with time....

Still have a little pain and bruising

Just a quick update, I have a little pain that hasn’t gone away. The pain is where the threads are anchored. It’s a very funny sensation in the corners of my mouth. I can feel the pulling. Very weird. I hope it goes away soon. So far I like the results.

Any updated photos? Please keep us posted on the results. Glad you are happy with it thus far.

It’s been 9 days. I still have a sharp pain the corners of my mouth especially when I laugh or chew. I also have this funny lump where the initial needle went in. I am hoping this goes away. Other than that I love the way it looks.

I had this done a year and a half ago. The one thing she told me was I had to limit my facial expressions. That was very important. Mine looked great about 2 1/2 weeks later. There is really more down time than is advertised. Wish it lasted longer.

how long did it last? Thank you

How long did your insta lift last? And was it worth it for the price?

How long did it last? Did the sutures build collagen as they are supposed to?

I provide this treatment in my practice. Patients that I treated a year ago still have correction. If full correction is made at the time of the initial treatment, the outcome will last for over a year and a half. I tell my patients that it’s not going to disappear overnight; it’s going to be a gradual change and you don’t go back to baseline. You’ve produced collagen but you are also still aging so need to expect a touchup around 18 months.

Still have pain after 9 days

I am still getting sharp pain in corners of my mouth when I laugh or chew. I have a lump where the initial needle went in. Hoping it all gets better with time. I still love the results just more uncomfortable than I thought

Have you asked your doctor about the lump? I'm worried that it might be a small infection
March 8, 2019
The lump is not red or painful. It’s not oozing fluid. Those are signs of infection. I think it may my inflammation. I will see the doctor on Saturday. Thanks for your concern
March 8, 2019
Okay, good <3
I hope you heal well
March 9, 2019
Thank you

Hi mylenejoe, just wondering how you are doing, a few days later (3/14)? I hope all is well, and you're feeling more comfortable. :)

so funny, as i had a bump in the same place. i believe that it is one of the cones. this is what dissolves over time.
