Skin Tightening
Non surgical skin tightening procedures are cosmetic treatments to change the look of your face and your stomach.Skin tightening procedures target areas of your skin that have become loose and stimulate collagen production.
Intense Pulse Light (IPL) / Radiofrequency:
It is a device that claims to target and shrink fat cells. It uses a hand held device to send infrared waves into your skin layers to break apart fat deposits.
Radio frequency waves are also used. This procedure doesn’t require anesthesia. Several appointments are virtually recommended to get the most visible results.
With radio frequency, we heat the skin at a more superficial level to trigger collagen production. There’s really little to no downtime. As with ultrasound treatments, it can feel really hot—it’s like a hot stone massage. It’s also a gradual process, so while you can be in and out of the office in under an hour, you’ll need two to six treatments usually (depending on the size of the area you’re treating, delivered 7-10 days apart,”
You'll need multiple sessions to see the best results.
While there’s little-to-no downtime (or pain) involved in laser skin tightening, the tradeoff is that in most cases you need multiple treatment sessions spaced a few days (or even weeks) apart. A doctor can call for anywhere from two to 10 treatments of radiofrequency .
Basically anyone at any age can benefit from a treatment.
As a preventative measure, patients in their 20s whose skin doesn’t demand tightening can still get ahead of potential sagging by getting a laser treatment. Laser help bank collagen, so it’s great even for young people for future gaining,”It also postpones the need for surgical lifting.”
