Non-surgical skin tightening

Overview

As we age, the skin begins to lose its natural firmness, leading to sagging and a softening of once-defined features. Non-surgical skin tightening is a minimally invasive treatment designed to restore skin firmness and elasticity without the need for surgical procedures. These treatments utilize advanced energy-based technologies to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. As the energy heats targeted areas beneath the skin’s surface, it triggers a natural regenerative process, leading to gradual tightening, improved texture, and a more youthful appearance over time.

Who are the ideal candidates for non-surgical skin tightening?

Skin tightening treatments are ideal for individuals who are noticing some sagginess of face, fine lines, loss of skin firmness and elasticity and softening of features. It is a perfect choice for those who prefer a non-surgical approach to skin rejuvenation.

Candidates typically include:

Individuals in their 30s to 60s with early signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles and prominent skin pores.
Those with mild to moderate skin laxity and sagginess, blunting of jawline definition and prominence laugh lines.
People who desire a natural, gradual improvement in skin tone and texture.
Those who seek a non-invasive alternative to surgical facelifts.

What does your skin tightening journey at V6 clinics look like?

Here’s a step-by-step overview of what the procedure typically involves:

Consultation

Before undergoing the procedure, you will have a consultation with our expert dermatologist. During this session, your skin will be assessed, and your aesthetic goals will be discussed. This helps to determine which skin tightening treatment is the best fit for you which could be radiofrequency (RF), high intensity focused Ultrasound (HIFU) or laser based, as per the severity and area of concern.

Preparation

On the day of the procedure, the treatment area will be cleaned to remove any makeup, oils, or impurities. A topical anesthetic or numbing cream may be applied to minimize any discomfort, although this step is often unnecessary due to the generally mild nature of the treatment.

Procedure

During the procedure, a handheld RF, Laser or focused Ultrasound-based device will be used to deliver controlled radiofrequency energy to the targeted areas of your skin, which penetrates deep into the dermis of the skin. This stimulates the production of collagen and elastin and several other structural proteins of the skin responsible for skin elasticity and firmness. Modern devices are equipped with sensors to monitor skin temperature, ensuring that the treatment remains within safe and effective levels. These devices include a cooling mechanism that cools the skin’s surface while the deeper layers are heated. This helps protect the outer skin and enhances comfort during the procedure.

What to expect after the procedure?

Following your skin tightening sessions, you can expect:

Gradual Improvement: The results will develop gradually over several weeks as your body produces new collagen and elastin. This typically takes 8-12 weeks and continues to improve till 5-6 months.
Mild Redness: You may experience some redness or warmth in the treated area immediately after the procedure, but this typically subsides within a few hours.
No Downtime: You can return to your regular activities immediately after each session, making it a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.

Results

The results of skin tightening treatments can last for several months to a year, depending on factors such as your age, skin condition, and lifestyle. With proper skin care and maintenance treatments, you can enjoy long-lasting youthful and rejuvenated skin.
