Understanding Skin Laxity and Non-Surgical Treatment Options

Aging, gravity, and life events like pregnancy can contribute to skin looseness and reduced elasticity. For individuals experiencing sagging skin in the face, neck, and body, SkinTyte™ provides an advanced laser therapy solution to restore skin firmness and confidence.

What is SkinTyte™ Skin Tightening?

SkinTyte™ is an innovative laser treatment utilizing selective thermolysis and pulsed light technology. By deeply heating dermal collagen, the procedure stimulates natural healing processes and promotes renewed skin elasticity.

Treatment Areas

• Lower face and jowls
• Neck
• Chest
• Backs of hands
• Upper arms
• Abdomen
• Hips
• Above the knees

How SkinTyte™ Works

The treatment uses infrared energy to deeply heat collagen, causing partial denaturation and contraction. This process triggers the body's natural healing mechanism, creating a stronger, more elastic skin foundation.

Treatment Process

• No extensive pre-treatment preparation required
• Minimal discomfort with optional topical anesthetic
• Protective eyewear mandatory
• Sequence of rapid, gentle light pulses
• Approximately 30 minutes for full face and neck treatment

Expected Results

Patients can expect gradual skin improvement with initial firmness noticeable within the first month. Full results typically develop over 4 months, with continued collagen rebuilding. Most patients benefit from 2-5 treatments spaced 2-4 weeks apart.

Ideal Candidates for SkinTyte™

Individuals experiencing skin laxity from aging, weight changes, or post-surgical procedures may be excellent candidates. The treatment is suitable for both men and women seeking non-surgical skin rejuvenation.
