No special preparation is required prior to Silhouette Soft treatment.

However, we recommend that you discuss your expectations and ask your doctor any questions you have before starting treatment. Inform the doctor of any treatment you have already received and of any medicines you are currently taking.

Application of Silhouette Soft must be performed by a doctor who has undergone specific training.

Applying Silhouette Soft takes around 60 minutes in a doctor’s practice. You will thus be able to get back to your full social life with minimal recovery time.

Silhouette Soft is a tailor-made treatment, so it will be adapted to your needs and preferences and can be complemented with other aesthetic treatments.

After the treatment, slight oedema (swelling) or bruising may occur. Sometimes, a slight depression or skin irregularity may appear at the entry points. These inconveniences disappear a few days after treatment.The doctor will prescribe an antibiotic cream to apply on the entry and exit points of the threads twice a day as required (in the morning and in the evening, during 5 days):

• Apply cold packs immediately after the procedure if required (Cold packs should be wrapped to avoid direct contact with skin and insertion point)
• Take analgesia e.g. paracetamol in case of pain (2-3 days)
