SKINTYTE
-
The SkinTyte procedure utilizes infrared energy to deeply heat collagen in your skin. The heat initiates the body’s natural healing processes, which create a renewed collagen foundation resulting in increased skin firmness. Powerful cooling maintains the outer surface of your skin at a cool temperature before, during and after each pulse providing the patient a comfortable and safe procedure.
-
Patients who should consider SkinTyte are looking for moderate, noticeable skin tightening without having to undergo surgery.
-
The SkinTyte light energy is delivered in a sequence of rapid, gentle pulses. There is no need for a topical anesthetic cream. A series of pulses will be repeated over the treatment area to ensure best results.
-
SkinTyte results are best when done in a series of 5 treatments approximately 3-4 weeks apart. Visible results may not be seen until after the second or third treatment. The full extent of improvement may take up to four months to see.
-
SkinTyte treatments are safe for all skin colors and can be performed on any area of the body where an improvement in your skin firmness is desired. Popular areas include the face, neck, and abdomen.
-
This is a noninvasive and gentle procedure with no downtime. NO special care regime is required following the treatment. Your skin will be slightly red or pink following the treatment. This will subside after about 20-30 minutes. You are able to return to work, apply makeup and resume your activities immediately. However, you should always protect your skin from direct sun exposure and use a good sunscreen.
