A silhouette facelift suture includes a hollow stainless steel tube 1 with a blunt lower end 5, an oval orifice 3 with a fine slit 4 and a small Y. shaped slit 6 at its upper open end. A longitudinal, alongside slit 2 runs along the length of the hollow tube. A separate polypropylene silhouette suture 7 has knots 8, cones 9 and a half circle non cutting small needle 10. The silhouette suture 7 is stretched and fixed into the hollow tube 1 between the fine slit 4 and the Y shaped slit 6. The fine slit 4 accommodates the suture 7 and prevents its terminal knot 8 from slipping. Preferably the alongside slit 2 prevents the knots 8 and cones 9 from passing through the hollow tube 1.
