Are you beginning to see loose skin on your face, neck, beneath your chin or on your tummy or stomach? Many people are looking for a safe effective skin firming procedure, and Sciton’s SkinTyte offers just that.

 

The SkinTyte Laser Treatment is based on the principle of selective thermolysis and utilizes Sciton’s BBL pulsed light technology.  This innovative technology is used to selectively heat the dermal collagen deep in your skin while simultaneously cooling the epidermis. The heat also initiates the body’s natural healing process, which creates a renewed collagen foundation leading to increased skin firmness. Powerful cooling maintains the outer surface of your skin at a cool temperature before, during, and after each pulse providing the patient a comfortable and safe procedure.

 

Procedure: SkinTyte can be provided quickly and comfortably with no downtime. The end result is a more youthful appearance.  The SkinTyte procedure has over a ninety percent consumer satisfaction rate.

DurationThe SkinTyte™ light energy is delivered in a sequence of rapid, gentle pulses.  While the face and neck can typically be treated within 30 minutes, the actual time will depend on the area treated.  The number of treatments varies and depends on area being treated. Treatments are usually performed 4-6 weeks apart, at your convenience.

AnesthesiaThere is no need for a topical anesthetic, however, we may choose to use one on more sensitive areas.

Hospital Stay?Laser treatments are in-office procedures, requiring no hospital time.

Recovery periodYou may experience some mild redness and swelling in the treated area immediately after treatment and this should return to normal within minutes. Since the SkinTyte™ procedure is noninvasive there is no downtime so you can resume regular activities immediately following treatment. You can also apply makeup and sunscreen after each session.
