What is Laser Skin Tightening?

Laser treatment for skin tightening is a minimally invasive procedure that involves delivering heat into the treatment areas to stimulate natural collagen production. Although radiofrequency (Thermage FLX and Exilis Ultra) and ultrasound (Ultherapy) aren’t lasers, they’re also great alternative options to tighten lax skin in the face and other parts of the body.

Collagen and elastin are important proteins that keep the skin firm and healthy. By heating the deeper layers of the skin and triggering the natural production of new collagen and elastin, non surgical skin treatments help tighten loose skin and erase the wrinkles in some parts of the face. This treatment also works for other parts of the body with lax skin like the neck and stomach.

Aging is inevitable, and with it comes the appearance of saggy skin on the face and neck. You can reduce the appearance of these signs of aging within just a few weeks thanks to laser skin tightening treatments. What remains is smoother skin that can make you look and feel younger. 

Why We Recommend Skin Tightening for You

As we age, the levels of collagen in our bodies decline. This leads to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. But instead of plastic surgery like a facelift, it’s better to opt for a safe and effective laser skin tightening procedure instead. This non-surgical treatment offers effective results to tighten your skin, erase different signs of aging, and highlight your facial features.

Laser skin tightening is recommended for patients who want to rejuvenate their appearance by producing new collagen fibers. Dr. Lanna can perform laser treatments in the following treatment areas for the best results:

• Face and neck
• Jawline
• Stomach or abdomen

Your Skin Tightening Experience

Getting laser skin tightening is a quick and easy procedure. Before your treatment session, you’ll have an initial consultation with Dr. Lanna about everything you need to know about the non invasive skin treatment: how it works, are you qualified for it, and what results to expect. From there, Dr. Lanna creates a personalized treatment that helps you achieve your aesthetic goals.

During the procedure, Dr. Lanna uses a laser skin tightening device to deliver heat to the skin tissues in the treatment area. The patient might feel slight discomfort, but most of them say that the sensation is similar to getting a hot stone massage.

And that’s it – a quick and easy non invasive treatment that only takes about an hour. Visible improvements in the treated sites usually start showing a few weeks after the procedure. 

Aftercare Tips

Laser treatments don’t require a long downtime like facial plastic surgery, so patients don’t have to worry about taking time off work after the skin rejuvenation procedure. Most of them even return to their daily activities within the same day as the treatment. To help minimize side effects and ensure that you’re getting the best results, here are a few aftercare tips to keep in mind:

• Gently apply an ice pack in the treated areas to minimize pain and discomfort
• Stay hydrated to help the body heal quickly
• Avoid exercises and other strenuous activities for the first 24 to 48 hours

FAQs About Skin Tightening

Q: Is laser skin tightening safe if I have a dark skin type?

A: Patients with dark skin tone can safely undergo skin tightening procedures that use radiofrequency and ultrasound technology without worrying about severe damage to their skin. These treatments are colorblind, so they don’t destroy the pigment of the skin. They simply deliver heat energy to induce collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin for noticeable cellulite reduction and tighter skin.

Q: How long will my laser skin tightening results last?

A: Most patients may experience skin tightening results for up to a few years after their treatment. However, it’s important to remember that these procedures don’t stop the aging process so wrinkles, loose skin, and fine lines may still appear after a while. The best way to prolong the results of the treatment is to maintain a healthy lifestyle and use the right skincare products.

Q: Who shouldn’t get laser skin tightening treatments?

A: Patients shouldn’t get skin tightening if they:

• Have severe skin laxity (laser treatments work best for patients with only mild to moderate skin laxity)
• Are expecting dramatic and permanent results
• Want to erase acne scars, dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and other similar skin problems (there are other types of laser treatments developed for these skin concerns)
• Are pregnant or breastfeeding
• Are under 21 years old

During your initial consultation, Dr. Lanna can determine if you are a qualified candidate for laser skin tightening. Otherwise, alternative aesthetic treatments will be recommended so you can achieve the results you’ve always wanted.
