What is MyEllevate?

MyEllevate uses a light-guided suture system to create a supportive network beneath the skin, which involves placing a series of sutures through small punctures under the chin and behind the ears. The specially designed light wand guides the sutures into position, allowing for precise placement without extensive incisions. As you age, the suture continues to provide lift and definition. This helps maintain your rejuvenated appearance over time.

This treatment targets common signs of aging in the lower face, including:

  • Jowls
  • Loose neck skin
  • Loss of jawline definition

Benefits of MyEllevate

  • This minimally invasive procedure provides natural-looking results without extensive surgery or downtime
  • You'll experience a lifted and more youthful appearance, particularly in the lower face and neck areas
  • Recovery time is significantly shorter compared to traditional facelifts, as most patients can return to normal activities within a few days
  • MyEllevate’s minimal scarring appeals to those seeking discreet cosmetic improvements
  • The procedure is customizable to your specific needs and facial structure
  • MyEllevate can be combined with other treatments for enhanced results and comprehensive facial rejuvenation strategies
  • The treatment stimulates collagen production, promoting ongoing skin improvement over time, so you may notice continued enhancements in skin texture and firmness

Am I a Good Candidate for MyEllevate?

Ideal candidates are typically between 30 and 60; however, age is not the sole determining factor, and your overall health and skin condition play important roles.

  • You may be an ideal candidate for MyEllevate if you:
  • Have mild to moderate sagging or laxity in the neck or jawline
  • Are looking for a minimally invasive solution with a quicker recovery time
  • Have good skin elasticity and are in overall good health
  • Are seeking subtle, natural-looking improvements rather than drastic changes

Consultation at The LaVie Institute

You'll meet with one of our specialists at The LaVie Institute to discuss your goals and medical history. Before explaining the procedure, potential risks, and expected outcomes, we will examine your face and neck to determine if you're a suitable candidate.

MyEllevate Procedure

Arrive with a clean face and wear comfortable clothing. The procedure typically begins with the application of local anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the treatment.

Using the ICLED® light-guided suture system, we will place small sutures beneath the skin to elevate and tighten the underlying muscles and tissues. This precise technique minimizes trauma to the surrounding areas and results in a more natural-looking lift.

The entire process is done through small punctures in the skin, meaning no large incisions are required. This results in less swelling, minimal scarring, and a quicker recovery than traditional neck lift surgeries.

Once the sutures are in place, you’ll see an immediate improvement in the contours of your neck and jawline, and the results will continue to improve as healing progresses.

The MyEllevate procedure typically takes about one hour, making it a convenient option for those seeking quick yet transformative results.

Recovery

After MyEllevate, you can return home the same day. However, for the first few days, expect some swelling and bruising.

Follow these post-procedure guidelines:

  • To reduce swelling, apply cold compresses and keep your head elevated
  • Avoid strenuous activities for 1-2 weeks
  • Attend follow-up appointments as scheduled

Results

Initial results are visible immediately, with continued improvement over the next few months. Full results typically appear within 3-6 months as tissues settle and collagen production increases.
You'll notice a more defined jawline, lifted neck, and smoother skin texture. With proper skincare and a healthy lifestyle, results can last several years.
