Forget the Facelift: Discover Our Skin Tightening Treatments
Our skin starts to lose elasticity and firmness as we age, leading to sagging skin and wrinkles. While aging is inevitable, there are ways to slow down that process to keep your skin looking youthful and radiant. One of the ways to target skin laxity is through skin tightening treatments.
Non-surgical skin tightening treatments are cosmetic procedures that aim to tighten and firm loose skin on the face or body. They use various techniques and technologies to stimulate collagen production, which helps improve skin elasticity and tighten sagging skin, such as radiofrequency, ultrasound, or laser energy.
If you are wondering if a skin tightening treatment is right for you, booking a consultation with one of our experts is best. At Martin's Rejuvenation Centre, we offer a variety of skin tightening treatments that target various skin concerns. Fotona TightSculpting® and Thermage are two of our favorites, but each treatment offers something different depending on the person receiving it.
To clarify some preliminary questions, let us take you through some aspects of skin tightening treatments, which treatments are available to you, how they work, and what to expect during and after the procedure.
What to Expect from a Non-Surgical Skin Tightening Treatment?
What to expect during a skin tightening procedure varies depending on your treatment type. You may feel some heat or light discomfort, but the procedures are usually not painful. Depending on the type of treatment and area targeted, your appointment can last between 30 to 60 minutes.
Since most treatments are non-surgical and require little to no downtime, you can continue your day right after. However, patients may experience some redness or swelling, which should subside within a few hours. You may already notice some immediate skin tightening right after your appointment, but full results may take several weeks.
The results of skin tightening treatments can vary depending on the type of treatment, the individual's skin type, and other factors. Generally, results can last anywhere from several months to a few years. In some instances, maintenance treatments may be necessary to maintain the results. Following our aftercare instructions, such as avoiding sun exposure and using moisturizer, is important to ensure optimal results.
Facial VS. Body Skin Tightening
Facial Skin Tightening
Several facial skin tightening treatments can help you achieve a more youthful, rejuvenated experience. These treatments can target several areas of your face, including:
- The forehead
- Cheeks
- Jawline
- Neck
Skin tightening treatments are a suitable option if you want to tighten your jowls or smooth out some of your forehead wrinkles.
That said, not every area on the face is a good match for such treatments. The delicate skin around the eyes is generally not suitable for skin-tightening procedures. Similarly, some devices and methods may not be ideal for darker skin tones, as they may cause discoloration or scarring.
The best method for your skin and beauty goals is best discussed during a consultation with one of our experts. They will advise how you can put your best face forward.
Body Skin Tightening
It's amazing how our bodies and faces change over time, and with the right approach, we can feel confident and comfortable in our skin at any stage of life. Whether you're looking to tighten up after weight loss or pregnancy or simply maintain a youthful appearance, plenty of options are available to help you feel your best.
Whatever the reason, we offer several tightening treatments as a remedy for loosening skin in various areas of your body, including:
- The abdomen
- Buttocks
- Arms
- Thighs
As with facial skin tightening methods, only some are equally suitable for some areas of your body. Some may be more effective in treating one part of the body than the other. Again, one of our experts can help you determine which treatment is best for your skin type and desired area.
