Reduce The Signs of Aging

Are your face and neck making you look older? Does your neck have a crepe-like appearance? Have you started to wear more scarves to hide those creases? Does the idea of a facelift seem excessive? Would you like to find a non-surgical solution to improve your look? Aging can have a tremendous negative effect on our skin. As we grow older, the production of the two major proteins under our skin, collagen & elastin, start to slow down. Elastin provides the flexibility of your skin. With a lowered production of collagen and elastin more creases and folds will become visible. Find out if one of our skin tightening treatments might be right for you.

What is Skin Tightening?

Skin tightening treatments usually target the forehead, upper and lower eyelids, nasolabial folds, jowls, or neck. They can also be effective in reducing crow’s feet.

These non-invasive treatments can stimulate collagen production and improve the skin’s suppleness. Wrinkle reduction is another popular benefit. Skin tightening treatments will not duplicate the results of a surgical facelift, but these non-invasive procedures are an excellent alternative for those not ready for surgery.

Treatments

There are numerous skin tightening treatments and technologies on the market, each with varying areas of specialization and treatment modalities. Our NYC skin tightening experts at SoVous Med Spa offer these treatments in our clinic on the Upper East Side.

Forma and Forma Plus FDA-approved skin tightening treatments utilize radio-frequency energy to tighten, smooth, and contour the skin to create an overall younger appearance anywhere on the body. Forma technology is an exceptional choice for the treatment of wrinkles and skin laxity of the face, neck, and chest. Forma stimulates the formation of new collagen while causing the deep layers of your skin to contract. This dual system improves the skin’s elasticity resulting in enhancements that are long-lasting and noticeable.

The radiofrequency current flows between the electrodes to provide a comfortable thermal experience, without concerns of hot spots or under-treatment. Built-in temperature controls allow for clinically proven optimal epidermal temperatures. In addition, Forma has the exclusive capacity for prolonged exposure at therapeutic temperatures, which can be reached quickly and uniformly. This feature allows the clinician to deliver a more effective treatment. Forma Plus delivers the same great treatment benefits as Forma through a handpiece designed to be used anywhere on the body. After Plus treatments your skin will appear more youthful, toned, and tight.

ProFractional laser treatments use computer-guided laser beams to quickly create thousands of microchannels in the skin. These microchannels can be adjusted by the skincare specialists at SoVous to hit just the right depth for maximum effectiveness. The laser microchannels instantly reduce the visibility of facial blemishes, while stimulating the body’s healing response to produce collagen. This produces a tightening effect on the skin that continues to improve for months following the procedure. One of the really clever innovations of the ProFractional Laser system is that the computer-guided laser channels are incredibly small, and surrounded by skin that is untouched by the laser. This both encourages healing of the areas hit by the laser to reduce downtime, and improves the look of the adjacent areas of skin, as the collagen created by the ProFractional treatment improves the entire area.

Go beyond skin deep with RF Microneedling. When doing RF Microneedling with Fractora it combines fractional skin resurfacing via microneedling and RF subdermal tissue coagulation to stimulate collagen production while removing superficial blemishes.

It has been shown in scientific studies to reduce the appearance of acne scars by 50%. It can also be used to tighten the skin in sensitive areas like the neck and beneath the eyes. It is a color-blind technology; it can be used on all skin types without fears of discoloration. It is a minimally invasive procedure that provides both skin resurfacing and tightening with very little downtime.

BodyFX is a non-invasive RF energy treatment system specifically designed to reduce the appearance of cellulite. With BodyFX, New York City skin tightening experts at SoVous can target specific areas of the body that show signs of dimpling. The BodyFX applicator pulls the skin and fat in, then heats the fat beneath the skin to a specific temperature using RF to promote coagulation of the subdermal fat.

The applicator has temperature monitoring technology to ensure that the surface of the skin stays safe and cool. Once the fat has coagulated, it triggers the release of collagen, tightening and smoothing the skin and reducing the appearance of fat and cellulite. The result is a slimmer, smoother, more defined appearance. BodyFX is commonly used to tighten the skin in areas where stubborn fat and cellulite are most common, such as the buttocks, thighs, back, and abdomen.

Benefits of Skin Tightening

Collagen provides firmness and support. That decreased production can result in skin on the face, neck, and body starting to sag and become lax. Not everyone has an equal loss of firmness and smoothness. Some people can put off any treatment for decades; some show these signs of age early on.

If you have been looking for a solution for sagging skin, you have likely found dozens of face and body creams and lotions that promise to tighten and smooth your affected areas. You have probably spent money on some of these, wondering if you are the only one who has seen only minimal results. You may have a cabinet filled with disappointment. Usually, the best these creams can do is moisturize, but some will have temporary positive results. Our non-surgical skin tightening can last for months and postpone any need for more invasive procedures.

Skin Tightening FAQs

Who can benefit from skin tightening?

Skin tightening is ideal for those who are not ready for a facelift but want to see natural-looking and noticeable improvements in the smoothness of their face, chin, and brow, and reduction of loose, saggy skin in their neck.

How long does the treatment last?

Results are seen within 2 to 3 months and can last up to a year with good at-home skincare. Your experienced aesthetician will be able to suggest a routine that will prolong your results.

What should I expect during treatment?

During your treatment for skin tightening NYC aesthetic specialists at SoVous will identify the areas to be treated, apply a gel and then place the smooth applicator on your skin. You may feel a warm sensation and tingling while the area is being treated. Treatment time varies depending on the area but typically takes 30 to 90 minutes.
