Why get skin tightening?

As we age, skin loses elasticity. If you are looking for a nonsurgical way to address loose skin on your face or body, skin tightening may be right for you.

Skin tightening is a great option if you have any of the below concerns:

• You have mild to moderate loose skin on your face, neck, arms, or body.
• You have residual skin laxity after an operation, weight loss, or pregnancy.
• You cannot or do not want to undergo a more invasive surgical procedure to correct skin laxity.
• You had a facelift or other surgical procedure and want to prolong your results.
• You have minimal to no laxity but are looking to help prevent or delay the onset of skin laxity.

Benefits of Skin Tightening

• Tighten facial or body skin
• Get firmer, smoother skin with improved elasticity
• Avoid invasive, surgical skin tightening procedures with this noninvasive approach
• Prevent or delay the onset of skin laxity
• Look younger
• Improve your self-image and self-confidence

What should I consider before getting skin tightening?

• You need to be in good general health.
• Skin tightening can help all skin types.
• Results are less extensive and dramatic than a facelift or body contouring procedures (neck lift, lower body lift, thigh lift, upper body lift, tummy tuck, upper arm lift).
• You will likely need multiple treatments to achieve optimal results. You may need to repeat treatments every 18-24 months, and results may take months to appear.
• Laser skin tightening side effects may include discomfort, skin redness, temporary swelling or numbness, or volume loss around the treated area(s).
• Noninvasive skin tightening requires little to no downtime.
