Skin Tightening
Skin Tightening
As we all age, the skin on our bodies becomes thin, losing the firmed toned look of youth.
Skin tightening can bring back that fresh appearance. Using selective dermal heating, we can stimulate the production of collagen and improves skin surface texture.
Non-invasively, it tightens loose skin, promotes healthy collagen production and improves body contours.
We can also treat loose sagging skin anywhere on the body, including the face, abdomen, thighs, chest and upper arms.
It can also be used to improve and diminish the appearance of cellulite and stretch marks.
How Does The Treatment Work?
During the treatment we precisely heats an area of the inner layer of skin while simultaneously cooling the outer layer of skin.
As the inner layer is heated, a natural reaction occurs, promoting the creation of new collagen. In the case of cellulite, it changes the shape of fat cells and shrinks and remodels the connective tissue that forms this condition. Depending on the size of the treated area, the procedure may take from 15-60 minutes.
The heating action causes the deep structures of the skin to tighten.
What To Expect From Skin Tightening Treatments
Most people tolerate this treatment well and have little or no discomfort. Patients often describe the sensation as a “warm massage”.
Following treatment you can immediately resume all routine activities.
You may notice slight redness, which should disappear in a few hours.
Generally, eight to twelve treatments at two-week intervals are recommended.
