What to expect from MyEllevate®
MyEllevate® is a minimally invasive procedure designed to address mild to moderate soft tissue laxity in the submental (under-chin) area. This treatment uses a suture suspension system and does not involve skin excision. It is typically performed under local anaesthesia.
The procedure involves placing a light-guided suture support beneath the skin to provide structural support along the jawline and neck.
