FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Skin tightening pertains to a wide variety of products, devices, and procedures that will make the skin tighten causing a bit of a lift and shrinkage. It also enhances the glow of your skin. These procedures, devices, and products will make your skin look younger and fresher.

When it comes to skin tightening procedures, the main and most effective type is:

Laser Treatment: This is the most popular type of skin treatment. A handheld laser device is used to tighten the skin and reach its deep layers. This is proven to be effective on the skin in the upper arms and belly. Depending on the size and number of treatment areas, you might need at least 3 treatments up to 6 to achieve the desired results. However, the procedure is non-invasive, quick, and has no downtime. You can get back to your normal routine immediately after the skin tightening treatment.

Laser skin tightening is a non-surgical and non-invasive procedure with little to no downtime. It is the most popular skin tightening procedure because it needs less downtime compared to other types and doesn't have that many side effects. It is an FDA approved treatment for reducing fine lines, skin laxity, and wrinkles.

Laser skin tightening treatment can be done in most places on the body. However, the most common areas this treatment is used are the face, neck, jawline, and stomach. This treatment is proven effective on areas of the skin in the belly and upper arms.

The handheld laser device used for this treatment gets very hot. That being said, the temperature is still tolerable. The heat will stimulate and encourage your skin to produce more collagen which helps improve the elasticity of your skin. The result is fresher, glowing, and firmer skin making you look more youthful.

When you use this procedure on the face, you can see some noticeable changes immediately after the treatment. However, the results are not as dramatic as a facelift.

Laser skin tightening treatment is best for people around 30 up to 65 years old.

The number of laser skin tightening sessions will depend on the target treatment area, how many areas you need to be treated, and your skin's pre-treatment condition. In some cases, clients with bigger target areas with special skin conditions might need at least 8 sessions to get the desired results.

How your body responds to the treatment will also be considered. Some patients or clients will respond better to their laser skin tightening treatment because of their lifestyle and diet. This will also dictate how soon you can get your next treatment.

Most clients need a minimum of 6 sessions to see and feel the optimal results. That being said, you might need more or fewer sessions depending on your case. To know exactly how many laser skin tightening treatments you might need, it is best to talk to our experienced doctor.

There is little to no downtime when you undergo laser skin tightening treatments. This is one of the main reasons why laser skin tightening treatment is a popular option. Once you are done with the treatment, you can go back to your normal life. It is very convenient and effective. You might feel a little bit of discomfort or see some redness in the target treatment area, but these will subside in a few hours. Some patients can even feel some tingling sensations. It will also subside after a few hours.

Laser skin tightening treatment is non-surgical and safe. Just be careful not to go swimming and sunbathing after your treatment. The target treatment area might be a bit fresh and sensitive. Getting direct sunlight to these parts of your skin might cause discomfort. I highly recommend not going to the beach or to a tanning salon. If you have other questions regarding the treatment and what you can and cannot do, do not hesitate to consult your doctor.

That being said, once you are done with your treatment, you can resume your regular routine.

The effects of laser skin tightening treatment accumulate after each session. The optimal results cannot be seen instantly. However, you can see and feel some changes after one session. The results may not be obvious just after one session, but it can be motivating if you feel and see some changes.

A handheld laser device is used to execute this treatment. This device will encourage and stimulate collagen and elastin growth under your skin in the target area. This is why you won't feel or see the changes after one session. Collagen and elastin still need to be stimulated and produced first to enhance the elasticity and tightness of your skin.

You can see and feel the changes more after 3 to 6 sessions. More collagen and elastin are produced these times making your skin tighter and firmer. If you have a proper skincare regimen including using SPF creams, you might be able to see more changes and positive results sooner.

Laser skin tightening treatments work by correcting skin laxity or sagging skin on the face, neck, and body. This treatment is commonly used to diminish fine lines and wrinkles which are common signs of aging. Laser skin tightening treatments work best for clients between 30 to 65 years old. This is usually the age range where wrinkles and fine lines start showing in the face. That being said, it can also be used as a preventive method to decrease the chances of you having fine lines and wrinkles as you age.

This treatment can also be used to prevent any sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles from showing. However, laser skin tightening has its limitations. Consult our doctor and they will advise you if laser skin tightening is the best option for you.

Laser skin tightening is considered 100% safe and non-surgical. A handheld laser device will be used to tighten your skin. Because you will not need to undergo surgery, the downtime and side effects are minimal. It has fewer risks compared to surgical ones. That being said, the effects of laser skin tightening treatment are less effective compared to surgical facelifts.

Some side effects of laser skin tightening treatments include:

  • Changes in skin color on the target treatment area
  • Redness
  • Tingling sensation
  • Scarring
  • Swelling

Redness, swelling, tingling sensation, and temporary changes in skin color are temporary. After a few hours, everything will be back to normal. However, if there are scarring or other adverse side effects, you need to consult a doctor immediately. Laser skin tightening treatment might not be best for you especially if you have other skin conditions that might affect the effectiveness of this treatment.

The results of laser skin tightening treatment are not permanent. That is why you need a couple of sessions and consistently go to your doctor to have your skin tightening treatments. However, the results can last for several years with some occasional maintenance laser skin tightening appointments. These maintenance treatments will make sure your skin does not sag the way it used to and decrease the visibility of your fine lines and wrinkles.

Each laser skin tightening treatment can last from 20 minutes up to an hour. You won't need to clear out your whole schedule to have this treatment. The same goes for your maintenance treatments. After the procedure, you can resume your life and get back to your normal routine. It is better to have regular and occasional maintenance treatments than start all over again.

Your regular and daily skincare routine can also affect the longevity of the effects of your laser skin tightening treatment. If you take better care of your skin, including the treatment area, there will be fewer chances of needing a maintenance treatment.

The after care is just as important as the laser skin tightening treatment itself. If you do not properly look after or take care of the treatment area, it might cause irritation or other adverse effects. It is best to remember these things:

  • If you see some redness and/or swelling in the treatment area, you can get an aloe vera or over-the-counter hydrocortisone to help reduce and soothe the redness and/or swelling.
  • Do not expose your skin to your treatment area to excessive heat or sun exposure. It will cause scarring, changes in your skin texture, and pigmentation changes.
  • Avoid going to saunas, hot tubs, or working out for at least 24 hours after the treatment.
  • Do not use any UV tanning beds for at least 2 weeks after the treatment.
  • Use broad-spectrum sunblock with at least SPF 30 or above daily whether it rains or shines.
  • Use gentle cleansers and lotions on treated areas.
  • Do not use any topicals that can cause photosensitivity. For example, salicylic acids, retinol, benzoyl peroxide, and hydroxyl acids.

If you have more questions or concerns, do not hesitate to contact our trusted doctor.

Laser skin tightening treatments are very popular because it makes the skin look younger, smoother, and healthier. Many people want to have younger-looking skin without undergoing surgery. In addition, the results are amazing and there is no downtime needed. You can resume your work and life after spending a quick session in the clinic.

Typically, laser skin tightening treatments are not covered by insurance because it is an elective cosmetic procedure. The cost per treatment will depend on the size and location of the target treatment area and the type of laser your doctor will be using. That being said, facial laser skin tightening is less expensive compared to other invasive skin tightening surgeries.
