SkinTyte® offers a non-ablative approach to firmer skin, providing firmer, more youthful looking skin.

The SkinTyte treatment is based on the principle of selective thermolysis and utilizes Sciton's BBL pulsed light technology to deeply heat your skin while cooling and protecting the entire treated surface. The heat also initiates the body's natural healing process which creates a renewed collagen foundation leading to increased skin firmness. SkinTyte can be provided quickly and comfortably with no downtime. SkinTyte treatments are safe for all skin types and can be performed on any area of the body where an improvement in your skin firmness is desired. Popular areas include the face, neck, abdomen, and arms. Even though patients are pleased with the results it does NOT replace the need for surgically excising the skin if there is too much of it.

What can I expect? Firmer, more youthful looking skin.

Procedure: The procedure is recommended for patients who desire moderate, noticeable, skin improvement without having to undergo surgery. Full results often take up to four months as the collagen foundation of your skin is rebuilt and strengthened.

Duration: While the face and neck can typically be treated in 30 minutes, actual time will depend on the area treated and the settings determined by your surgeon.

Anesthesia: There is no need for a topical anesthetic or pain medications

Hospital stay: Outpatient

How many treatments can be done? A series of 2-3 treatments spaced a month apart is typical in most patients.

Recovery: Since the SkinTyte procedure is non-invasive there is no downtime so you
may resume regular activities immediately following treatment.

You can apply makeup and sunscreen after each session.
