Skin Tightening

What is Skin Tightening?

Non-surgical skin tightening uses energy-based devices to heat deep skin layers, stimulating collagen production and causing tissue contraction. This results in firmer, tighter skin without incisions or significant downtime—ideal for mild to moderate laxity.

What to Know Before You Go

💡 Pro Tip: HIFU works best for mild to moderate laxity with single-session convenience. RF requires multiple sessions but is more comfortable. Discuss both options during consultation to find your best fit.

⚠️ Insider Note: Results develop gradually over 2-3 months as collagen builds. Don't expect immediate dramatic change—the wait is worth it for natural-looking improvement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which technology is best for me?

HIFU targets deeper tissue layers for lifting effect—best for jowls and jawline definition. RF heats the dermis for surface tightening—good for overall skin quality. Many patients benefit from combining both technologies.

How many sessions do I need?

RF typically requires 4-8 sessions, spaced 1-2 weeks apart. HIFU usually needs just 1-2 sessions annually. Your treatment plan depends on technology choice and laxity severity.

Is skin tightening painful?

RF is minimal discomfort (1-2/10)—feels like warm massage. HIFU is moderate (4-6/10)—brief bursts of heat sensation. Both are tolerable without anesthesia; numbing cream available if preferred.

When will I see results?

Gradual improvement over 2-3 months as collagen rebuilds. Some initial tightening visible within 2-4 weeks. Full results at 3-6 months when collagen remodeling completes.

How long do results last?

12-24 months typically, depending on technology and individual aging. Maintenance sessions every 6-12 months extend results significantly and compound improvement.

Which areas can be treated?

Face, neck, jowls, jawline, forehead, arms, abdomen, thighs, knees—anywhere with mild to moderate skin laxity. Face and neck are most common treatment areas.

Can skin tightening replace a facelift?

No—non-surgical tightening improves mild laxity but cannot match surgical results for significant sagging. It's excellent for prevention, early intervention, or maintaining surgical results.

Are there side effects?

Temporary redness and warmth are common and resolve within hours to days. HIFU may cause mild swelling for 1-3 days. Rare: temporary numbness that resolves within weeks.
