Treatment: Soft Lift™

What is Soft Lift™

It is a revolutionary approach to obtaining fast amazing results in restoring that youthful look.

No longer do you even have to contemplate surgical procedures to regain a youthful and fresh appearance. At The Rosenthal Clinic, Dr. Gillian Rosenthal has carried out many Soft Lift procedures on people who want an immediate non-invasive way to shed years from their appearance.

As we age subtle changes to our face continuously take place. These natural changes of loss of volume which we term deflation, and the downward shift of fat and tissue result in folds, lines, wrinkles, sagging skin and thinning of the lips.

Soft Lift; is done using BOTOX^® to reduce or eliminate lines. Juvederm^® filler is used to replace the loss of volume by re-sculpting while actually “lifting” the face. The effect gained from re-inflating the cheek areas alone can be astonishing as you see it immediately happen and the lines and folds literally disappear. The change can be made gradually if you require a not so dramatic change. During the treatment it is essential that you interact with Dr. Rosenthal to ensure that you gain the look that you alone can define.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Soft Lift painful?

Care will be taken to ensure that you will be comfortable and that pain is almost non-existent when performing Soft Lift. BOTOX^® injections are usually done without any numbing gel and are described as “only a short pinching of the skin”. Fillers that are combined with local anaesthetic are used after the application of numbing gel and the majority of our clients find the procedure to be pain-free.

What is the social downtime with Soft Lift?

For most clients they simply return to their normal activities. We advise against vigorous activity within 3 weeks of BOTOX^® injection and we recommend that for 3 nights that you do not sleep on your sides to avoid displacing the product. You may receive other instructions as to post-treatment care.

Soft Lift procedures can sometimes produce minor amounts of bruising. If this happens we can apply either your makeup or our own line of mineral makeup. The bruising usually goes away within a week. Swelling can also occur and while typical the swelling is usually modest and quickly recedes.

How long will Soft Lift treatments last?

Soft Lift will last a considerable time but it is not permanent. The fillers used can last for up to a year – dependent on the treatment location. At that time a “top up” can be done. This usually required only a fraction of the amount of the product previously injected.

It has been noted that usually the implant is very stable after the second injection and may not need further treatment for a long period of time. The BOTOX^® may have a shorter duration but the treatment can easily be repeated.
