Skin Tightening

What is Skin Tightening?

What are the different types of skin tightening procedures?

We employ three advanced skin tightening treatments—radiofrequency, ultrasound and laser light—each with unique benefits for rejuvenating and firming the skin. Understanding the distinct advantages of each method can help you decide which might best suit your needs:

• Radiofrequency (RF) skin tightening uses energy to heat the skin’s deeper layers, promoting collagen and elastin production without damaging the top layer of the skin. It’s particularly effective for tightening loose skin on the face, neck, and body. RF treatments are known for their ability to deliver gradual but lasting improvements in skin texture and firmness with minimal downtime.
• Ultrasound skin tightening involves using sound waves to target the skin’s foundational layer, stimulating collagen production without harming the surface. This method is effective for lifting and tightening the skin, particularly on the neck and under the chin.
• Laser Light skin tightening employs focused light energy to heat the skin’s collagen, causing it to contract and stimulate new collagen growth. This technique can improve skin elasticity and reduce signs of ageing, offering a non-invasive alternative to more extensive procedures.

The choice between radiofrequency, ultrasound, and laser light depends on your skin condition, treatment goals, and preference for recovery time.

How many treatments are needed to see results?

The number of skin tightening treatments required to achieve optimal results varies depending on individual skin conditions, the area being treated, and the specific technology used. Typically, patients might see noticeable enhancements following a single session, yet a sequence of treatments, often scheduled weeks apart, is advised for deeper, enduring outcomes.

During your initial consultation, our skin specialists will provide a customised treatment plan, including an estimated number of sessions required to meet your aesthetic goals.
