Skin Tightening

Generally, non-surgical skin tightening procedures use targeted energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin; which in turn stimulates the production of collagen and elastin and gradually improves the tissue. Some treatments also affect tissue to help smooth cellulite. Numerous FDA cleared skin tightening treatments and technologies are commercially available; each uses a unique mechanism to achieve the desired result. .

As we age, the production of two proteins and collagen that helps our skin stay plump, tight and smooth slows down in areas of loose, sagging skin on the face, neck, and torso. If skin laxity is bothering you, non-surgical skin tightening can temporarily halt this process and give you a firmer, smoother, younger appearance with little or no interruption.
