Skin Tightening is a service designed to improve the firmness and elasticity of the skin. This treatment uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin. A radiofrequency skin tightening treatment works by delivering heat to the skin’s deep layers, causing collagen fibers to contract and new collagen to grow. This service can effectively treat areas such as the face, neck, abdomen, arms, and thighs. For maximum effects, Skin Tightening can be combined with PDO (Polydioxanone) threads or laser treatments, enhancing the lifting and tightening of the skin for more pronounced results.
Skin Tightening is suitable for individuals looking to reduce the appearance of sagging skin and improve their overall skin texture without undergoing surgery. This treatment is perfect for individuals who have mild to moderate skin laxity. In most cases, results can be seen after a few treatments, and the full effect will be evident over several months as collagen continues to rebuild. The benefits of Skin Tightening can last for up to a year, with maintenance treatments recommended to sustain results.
