Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What distinguishes Silhouette threads from other threads like PDO, and how do the cones enable stronger lifting of sagging tissues?
Face lifting with Silhouette and PDO threads is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure aimed at lifting and tightening sagging skin and improving facial contours.
PDO threads are absorbable threads inserted under the skin using fine needles to create a supportive network that gradually lifts the skin and stimulates natural collagen production, whereas Silhouette threads are absorbable threads equipped with small bi-directional cones that provide stronger lifting and tightening, suitable for areas with more significant sagging. These threads work to lift and tighten sagging skin without surgery, improve facial contours, restore a youthful appearance, and stimulate collagen and elastin production for firmer and smoother skin.

2. How do Thermage and HIFU tighten the face without surgery, and how long do the results last?
Both procedures use focused thermal energy to stimulate collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin, gradually tightening and improving its appearance. Results typically last 6 months to 1 year.

3. Which areas are most commonly treated with fillers, and when do results appear?
Fillers are commonly used to enhance lips, fill cheeks, rejuvenate hands, improve nose shape, and smooth certain wrinkles in the feet. Results are visible immediately and generally last 6 to 18 months, depending on the filler type and treatment area.

4. How does Botox help treat hyperhidrosis in the armpits, hands, feet, or face, and how long do the results last?
Botox blocks the nerve signals that stimulate sweat glands, significantly reducing excessive sweating. Results usually last between 4 to 8 months, depending on the treated area and individual response.

5. Which areas are most commonly treated with fillers, and when do results appear?
Fillers are commonly used to enhance lips, fill cheeks, rejuvenate hands, improve nose shape, and smooth certain wrinkles in the feet. Results are visible immediately and generally last 6 to 18 months, depending on the filler type and treatment area.
