Knife Free Facelifts

Solihull Medical Cosmetic Clinic, under the supervision of Dr Sagoo, offers the latest in non-surgical “knife free” facelifts to suit all tastes. Through years of experience with different types of cosmetic treatments, Dr Sagoo has developed a combination of techniques that are designed for skin tightening, volumising and contouring, which may offer a natural-looking improvement in skin appearance without the downtime and risks associated with surgical facelifts.

Mini Facelift (knife free)

The mini facelift is a popular package that includes a combination of muscle relaxing injections (which may help with forehead lines, frown lines and crows feet lines), as well as long-lasting fillers (which may help to soften nose to mouth lines and enhance cheeks). These, when combined with a chemical peel or microdermabrasion (which may improve skin texture), may lead to a more youthful look overall – turning back the clock a few years.

The treatment is carried out over 4 weeks with minimal downtime and no knife. For those on a smaller budget but want to have a visible improvement before considering more aggressive treatments.

Advantages

  • Under  £1000.
  • 3 different treatments, which often show immediate results.
  • Minimal downtime.
  • Non-invasive.

FaceTite

FaceTite is the latest technology in the world for facial skin tightening, and Solihull Medical Cosmetic Clinic is proud to be one of the first clinics in the UK to offer this procedure, carried out by leading cosmetic doctor Dr Victor Sagoo.

What does FaceTite do?

FaceTite® may give an immediate lift, tightening loose skin on the forehead, around the eyes, cheeks, mouth and jowls. Using radiofrequency waves to heat and penetrate the skin, the procedure aims to cause the skin to tighten immediately, by warming the skin with a fine probe that is inserted into the fatty layer just under the skin.

The skin may tighten by up to 40% instantly. Within a few minutes, you may have much tighter skin that looks and feels better.

What are the after-effects?

Although there are usually results immediately following the procedure, there will be some swelling and bruising for about ten days after the procedure. This may make it difficult to see how much the skin has changed right away. Over a period of about three to six weeks, new collagen is produced; thus, you may see a continuous improvement, with the final results visible at about twelve weeks post-procedure.

FaceTite® is a minimally invasive treatment and a realistic alternative to a surgical facelift, as it is less traumatic and usually gives a very natural result. FaceTite is performed under a local anaesthetic, so you avoid the risks associated with a general anaesthetic and minimise the recovery time. Because the treatment does not involve a general anaesthetic you can go home immediately after the procedure.

How long with the results of FaceTite last for?

Results from FaceTite® may last up to about five years, similar to a mini Face Lift. After this, the skin will age naturally, depending on your genetics and lifestyle.

Can you combine FaceTite with other treatments?

FaceTite and NeckTite as well as laser resurfacing can be combined to achieve a full facelift effect.

Combine treatments with injectable fillers to achieve the VS 3D Full Facelift exclusive only to Solihull Medical Cosmetic Clinic in the UK.

The “VS 3D- Full Face Lift”

We are proud to offer a non-surgical minimally invasive facelift. Dr Sagoo has been trained by one of the top doctors of this procedure in the UK. The Silhouette Soft procedure is a nonsurgical facelift performed on the mid-face and cheek area. It uses special sutures, comprised of a biomedical copolymer and containing bidirectional cones. The body absorbs the material, and the bidirectional cones anchor to the subcutaneous tissue, lifting and repositioning it. 

The Silhouette  Soft procedure addresses signs of ageing caused by gravity, such as sagging skin, creating a sharper jawline, enhancing the face’s contours, and lifting the deeper skin layers for a more youthful appearance. With no incisions, patients experience no scarring, and Silhouette’s biodegradable material is FDA-approved and dissolves completely. The side effects are so minimal that patients may return to their normal routine immediately after the procedure. 

Some people do not want to have multiple treatments over several sessions to address their facial concerns, and most do not want to have invasive surgery under the knife.

Incorporating the techniques of facial and neck liposuction and skin tightening with restoring volume loss in the face (which leads to deep folds and sunken cheeks) and the benefits of CO2 laser skin resurfacing Dr Sagoo has developed the exclusive “VS 3D Full Face Lift” package to address all aspects of improving facial contour, texture volume, and skin laxity.

This exclusive package over 2 sessions will incorporate:

  • FaceTite/Neck Tite liposuction and tightening to help improve the neck.
  • Laser CO2 resurfacing to help dramatically improve texture and sun damage, and rejuvenate skin with collagen stimulation and skin tightening.
  • Injectable filler to help restore volume loss in mid to lower face cheeks, and improve nose to mouth lines.
  • Muscle relaxing injections to upper face to help with a frown and eyebrow improvement.

The result may be a totally natural facelift in 2 sessions with no need for invasive surgery or the visible scarring or pain/discomfort that goes along with a surgical procedure.

You may look fresher and rejuvenated naturally.

There is a downtime of a few days to recover; however, the longer-term results may result in a natural-looking enhancement.

Results

There may be a considerable improvement in volume restoration, improvement in skin texture as well as skin tightening and facial contouring, lines and wrinkles may be improved, and sun damage pigmentation may be improved dramatically. Neck and jawline may be improved giving a more youthful overall appearance. Many patients report that the overall effects look natural without any surgical knife.

The VS 3D full facelift is a natural alternative to a surgical facelift with less downtime and no knife!

Recovery Time

The liposuction and neck /face tightening recovery time is about 3 days. The laser resurfacing recovery is 5 days downtime, there may be some redness, swelling during the healing process. The fillers often cause minimal bruising and swelling, which can usually be concealed with makeup.
