There are no incisions or scars: the sutures are placed 3-5 mm below the skin using a fine needle.<\/p>\n<p>The tensor thread (also known as suspension threads or barbed threads) is held in place by bidirectional resorbable cones. In just 30 minutes, your face gets its shape back, wrinkles diminish, and the skin becomes smoother. The rejuvenating effects of Silhouette Soft threads are optimal after 3 to 6 weeks and can last up to 18 months (until complete absorption of the polylactic acid threads by the body).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;deep-page deep-page__heading&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>When can we have Silhouette Soft tensor threads placed?<\/h2>\n<p>I recommend this rejuvenation procedure to both male and female patients starting from 45. This is when cheekbones start sagging, the facial contour begins to loosen and the nasolabial fold appears prominent. The placement of Silhouette Soft threads is a reliable and rapid non-surgical rejuvenation technique. It delays the need for a surgical cervicofacial lift performed under general anesthesia.<\/p>\n<h2>A natural collagen booster<\/h2>\n<p>Another advantage of the Silhouette Soft\u00ae tensor threads is their boosting action. As it is made of polylactic acid (PLA), a biodegradable polymer that improves collagen production,a protein necessary for maintaining facial firmness. By acting on the deeper layers of the skin, the Silhouette Soft\u00ae tensor threads contribute to the gradual and natural remeshing of the facial contours.

Gold threads were already used for this purpose in ancient Egyptian times. Since the late 19th century, gold, and later other materials such as horsehair and silk, were experimented with by the inventive surgeon, Dr. Conrad.<\/p>\n<p>From the 1930s, smooth surgical threads were used for suspension, and in the 1960s, the innovative principle of barbs was introduced by Dr. Alcamo. Only 40 years later, Dr. Buncke (1997) and Dr. Sulazamide (2001) developed techniques based on the use of bidirectional barbed threads (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.benouaiche.com\/en\/aesthetic-medicine\/tensor-threads\/aptos\/\"><strong>APTOS<\/strong><\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>The optimization of threads then led to the search for better anchoring, achieved by using resorbable cones instead of barbs (Silhouette lift 2006), and finally by choosing to implant a completely resorbable material (Silhouette Soft 2010). The properties of the latter were the tissue traction, but also the stimulation of collagen synthesis. <strong>Silhouette Soft\u00ae tensor threads<\/strong> were approved by the Food &amp; Drug Administration (FDA) in 2015.<\/p>\n<p>The implementation of tensor threads does not replace the <strong>surgical face and neck<\/strong> <strong>lifting<\/strong>. However, it allows for a simple and effective maintenance of a satisfactory appearance for the patient for a longer period. Tensor threads are often proposed as a means to maintain the results of a facelift over time.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simple, rapide et moins douloureux qu\u2019un lifting chirurgical, le lifting facial par fils tenseurs redessine l\u2019ovale du visage de fa\u00e7on naturelle et discr\u00e8te, tout en stimulant la production de collag\u00e8ne.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6421,"parent":6821,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"template-internal-page-sidebar.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-6825","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Resorbable silhouette soft threads - Dr Benouaiche - Paris<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Tensor threads are a new aesthetic medicine procedure to tighten the face skin.
