 FAQs

  • Treatment is painless. Skin Tightening is non-invasive treatment with no downtime.

    Patients may resume their regular activities immediately following treatment.

  • Each flash of BBL produces a feeling of warmth, like a warm massage.

    Most patients easily tolerate the feeling with no anesthetic numbing cream. Your clinician will advise you on your treatment options.

  • During an initial consultation, your provider will recommend the number of Skin Tightening treatments needed to achieve your goals.

    Results can be seen in as little as one treatment. However, the number of treatments will depend on the severity of your skin laxity, with a typical patient requiring a series of 3 to 5 treatments.

  • The improvement in skin laxity from a SkinTyte treatment series is long-lasting.

  • Skin Tightening is typically performed as part of a series, spaced approximately 4-8 weeks apart, depending on the depth and coverage area of the treatment, as well as the health and integrity of the skin being treated.

  • Patients can expect mild redness and swelling, similar to a sunburn sensation, for a few minutes following the procedure.

  • All four Anti-aging treatments can be combined to achieve the best result:

    1. Anti-aging injection (Botox®)

    2. Skin Rejuvenation (Filler)

    3. Skin Tightening (SkinTyte®)

    4. Facelift (MINT®)

    Botox® relaxes wrinkles but it does NOT fill the collagen and fat that we lose as we age. Thus, facial fillers are used under the eyes and in the lower half of the face.

    Skin Tightening uses thermal energy to heat subdermal tissues, stimulating collagen development.

    Facelift uses PDO Thread to lift up the saggy skin and introduce new collagen regeneration.

The Science

Skin Tightening targets skin laxity, one of the most prominent and visible signs of aging. 

  • The treatment utilizes advanced infrared light technology to improve the appearance of lax skin. In comparison to other methods, SkinTyte® is considered a more effective light-based treatment for achieving the appearance of younger-looking skin.

    It can help delay or eliminate the need for surgical procedures by improving the appearance of severe wrinkles and restoring a youthful contour to the face and body.

    SkinTyte® is appropriate for all skin colors and skin types. Your provider will customize your treatment to fit your unique skin type, treatment area(s), and aesthetic goals.

    During the procedure, the provider will apply the laser over the treated area four times. Each pass will deliver gentle heat to promote collagen production while maintaining optimal skin surface temperature, keeping the treatment comfortable and downtime low.
