What is Silhouette InstaLift?

At the office of Kristin J. Tarbet, MD, Silhouette InstaLift is a minimally invasive procedure designed to lift sagging skin and reverse aging signs. This FDA-approved, non-surgical treatment offers a collagen-inducing micro-lift alternative for patients not ready for traditional surgical interventions.

Ideal Candidates for Silhouette InstaLift

Men and women in good health with mild to moderate signs of aging are excellent candidates for Silhouette InstaLift. Typical candidates experience:

  • Loss of facial structure in mid and lower face
  • Loose skin around mouth and jawline
  • Desire to address aging without surgery

Benefits of Silhouette InstaLift

  • Effective for adults aged 40 to 70+
  • Restores youthfulness through volume redistribution
  • Corrects drooping in mid and lower face
  • Smooths fine lines and wrinkles
  • Minimal side effects and recovery time
  • Ongoing collagen stimulation
  • Immediate visible results

How Silhouette InstaLift Works

The procedure involves inserting 2-4 specialized sutures into the facial fat layer. These threads feature tiny cones that catch and lift tissue, providing immediate structural improvement. Over time, the threads stimulate collagen production, enhancing skin firmness and elasticity.

Treatment Process

Performed in-office within 30-45 minutes, the Silhouette InstaLift begins with local anesthetic injections. Dr. Tarbet carefully marks and inserts threads to support natural facial contours. Patients may experience mild tugging but minimal discomfort during the procedure.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect immediate lifting effects with continued improvement over months. Minor redness and swelling may occur but typically resolve quickly, allowing patients to return to normal activities promptly.

Every time we have been there it has been a long wait to be seen, one time for over an hour. Despite that, my mom did not to have her perform a Blepharoplasty. It is damn near impossible to get someone on the phone. I called when an issue arise a month after surgery. I had to call multiple times to get a call back. When they did call they asked me to email photos which I did. The assured me that they would respond before end of day. I still have not heard back and it has been over 24 hours. I have called twice today as well.

Dr. Tarbet is not only incredibly thorough in her examinations but she also listens to you as a patient and checks EVERY ASPECT that could be contributing to your condition; even if she is confident of what the likely causes are, she doesnt leave a stone unturned. Her time, eye contact (ie acknowledging you as a person before a patient), and compassion are very hard to find in conjunction with capability in healthcare today. 100% recommend!

I got a lip filler there and I requested that it only be put on the outline of my lip. Dr. Tarbet put the needle right into my lip and I ended up having a reaction of all these bumps on my lips. It was a nightmare. She didn’t really listen and always seemed like she was in a rush to get to the next patient. They didn’t fix it- all they did was have me sign something saying I won’t sue them

There is a reason Dr. Tarbet is always booked out, she's really that good in my experience. Thankfully, she has finally duplicated herself with nurse Natalia. Not that she hasn't had other wonderful staff (she has/does), but nurse Natalia does some treatments they weren't trained in. She has the same exact eye for aesthetics that Dr. Tarbet does and both are extremely detail oriented. Dr. Tarbet, nurse Natalia, and this clinic in general get my highest recommendation. If you see Dr. Tarbet, good chance there'll be a wait as her schedule is absolutely jam-packed (she may be a workaholic). But once she gets into the room you have her full and undivided attention, and I have never once felt rushed. If anything, she has a way of making you feel like nothing else matters (which may contribute to the wait, but you can't put a price on that level of personal attention and care). Not just stunning but she doesn't look even close to her age (they both look great!), which really inspires confidence when doing similar treatments. So just bring a book and know you are in excellent hands. With or without the wait, she is worth it. Nurse Natalia is also extremely knowledgeable (she was a doctor in Russia) and her schedule seems way more flexible. So she can be an especially good option if you want to get in sooner and/or will be in a time crunch. Shout out to Chris and Steve who are also top notch, and rest of the staff is very friendly. Overall, two thumbs up!
