If you see sagging skin, wrinkles, or fine lines when you look in the mirror, you may not know if there are non-surgical treatment options available. To minimize these creases and folds, we offer skin tightening treatments at Allure Laser & Med Spa. Learn more about the types of skin tightening options we can provide.
1. BTL Skin Tightening
One of the most effective skin-tightening treatments we offer is BTL skin tightening. It is a non-invasive and non-surgical procedure that uses radiofrequency and ultrasound technology to offer reliable results.
This option heats up the treatment area, stimulating collagen production while at the same time destroying fat cells so that your body can then eliminate them. This versatile loose skin-tightening option can work on many areas of your body, including:
- Thighs
- Arms
- Ankles
- Lower back
- Calves
- Buttocks
It is also an excellent neck skin-tightening option as well as a stomach skin-tightening solution. This safe and effective procedure is fast and does not require any downtime, allowing you to get back to your life without delays. Most people require anywhere from two to four treatment sessions to get the best results. We will assess your progress regularly and adjust the treatment schedule as needed.
What to Expect From the BTL Skin Tightening Procedure
At our med spa, we will apply a handheld device to the treatment area. We will monitor temperature levels at all times to ensure you are comfortable. How long the procedure takes will depend on the size and number of treatment areas.
2. Microneedling
Another of the best types of skin-tightening options we offer is microneedling. Microneedling has made a name for itself by helping people achieve healthier and younger-looking skin while also providing excellent loose skin-tightening results.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure. It relies on your body’s own wound-healing mechanism. By using small needles to create tiny puncture wounds throughout the treatment area, microneedling encourages your body to increase collagen production and create new, healthier skin.
To make the procedure even more effective, we also offer microneedling skin-tightening treatments with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). PRP is an infusion made from your blood that provides growth factors and healing properties that can lead to even better results than you would get with microneedling alone.
What to Expect From the Microneedling Procedure
When you turn to us for face skin-tightening options like microneedling, we will clean your face and ensure you are comfortable before creating tiny punctures with our specialized needles. If you opt for PRP, we will first take a sample of blood from your arm and run it through a centrifuge to separate your blood’s components. We can then apply the platelet-rich plasma from your blood directly onto the punctures.
3. Opus Plasma
This skin-tightening treatment offers skin resurfacing benefits that can help renew how your skin looks and feels. Opus Plasma can offer face skin-tightening results for small, delicate areas, like around the eyes, that other options may not be able to handle as effectively. It can be an excellent option for neck skin tightening, as well as:
- Droopy eyelids
- Wrinkles around the lips and eyes
- Stretch marks
Opus plasma uses microplasma and radiofrequency energy to make tiny and controlled wounds in your skin, allowing your body’s natural healing process to begin. RF energy converts oxygen and nitrogen in the air into plasma, which is what causes the micro-wounds. By stimulating collagen production, this face and neck skin-tightening option can help improve skin texture and tautness.
What to Expect From the Opus Plasma Procedure
To keep you comfortable before we begin the procedure, we will apply a topical anesthetic to the treatment areas. We can then begin treatment, always having the ability to increase or decrease the amount of energy the device emits. Most people need three to four treatment sessions to see the results they want.
4. Laser Genesis
For face-tightening results, we offer Laser Genesis. It is a skincare treatment that is non-invasive and that can help treat imperfections like wrinkles, fine lines, discolorations, and more. Laser Genesis relies on a non-ablative laser that penetrates deep within the skin to target the production of collagen. It stimulates it, allowing your body to naturally begin tightening and renewing your skin.
What to Expect from the Laser Genesis Procedure
The Laser Genesis procedure usually takes no more than 30 minutes. We use a small wand, which is the laser, and give you goggles to wear to protect your eyes before we start.
5. HydraFacials
This is a non-surgical and non-invasive treatment option that can enhance the overall look of your skin, making it tighter and more even. HydraFacials are similar to microdermabrasion procedures, with the addition of serums that can help target the concerns you have. The serums are always customized to fit your exact skin type and needs.
What to Expect from HydraFacials
We use a wand that removes dead skin, and then we apply serums that can address skin laxity issues. The procedure can take just a few minutes.
