As we age, our skin inevitably loses its elasticity and firmness due to the natural decline in collagen and elastin production. Check out some of our popular skin tightening treatments!
Thermage FLX is a non-invasive treatment that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and resulting in tighter, smoother skin.
Areas it can treat:
- Face
- Eyes
- Arms
- Neck
- Abdomen
Benefits:
- Only one session is needed. Doctors recommend that this be done only once a yaer.
- Lifting effects. There is immediate tightening with continued improvement over time!
- Minimal downtime. This allows patients to return to their normal activities quickly.
- Suitable for all skin types and colours!
Ulthera, also known as Ultherapy, utilizes focused ultrasound energy to target the deep layers of the skin, including the foundational layer addressed in cosmetic surgery. This energy triggers a natural regenerative process that stimulates collagen production.
Areas it can treat:
Benefits:
- Non-invasive with no downtime required.
- Results can last up to a year or more.
- Clinically proven to lift and tighten the skin on the neck, chin, and brow!
SofWave is a skin tightening treatment that employs Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam Technology. This non-invasive procedure targets the mid-dermis, a key layer of the skin where collagen production occurs, using ultrasound waves to stimulate new collagen production.
Areas it can treat:
- Face
- Eyes
- Arms
- Neck
- Abdomen
Benefits:
- Effective and Long-Lasting Results: Clinical studies have demonstrated significant improvements in skin laxity and wrinkle reduction. The results of Sofwave treatments can last up to a year, with patients often noticing improvements within a few weeks post-treatment.
- Quick and Convenient: A typical Sofwave session lasts about 30-45 minutes, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. There is no downtime, allowing patients to resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure.
- Comfortable Treatment Experience: The integrated cooling system ensures that the treatment is comfortable. Most patients report only mild discomfort during the procedure.
It uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) that divides the focused ultrasonic energy into fractions to deep layers of facial tissue. The treatment is faster than our other ultrasound procedures since it can deliver up to 300 shots every 8 minutes.
Areas it can treat:
Benefits:
- Linear Types. This treatment has two cartridges that treat different concerns – Linear 2.0 for collagen regeneration and Linear 4.5/6.0/9.0 for skin tightening and tissue coagulations.
- Skin Depth. Linear Firm targets the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS), an area known for surgical facelifts to focus on. Linear Firm allows you to reach that area non-invasively!
- Faster delivery. The treatment is faster than the usual ultrasound procedures in the market by delivering 300 shots every 8 minutes. This makes the treatment much less painful and tolerable.
Virtue RF stands out as an advanced treatment that combines radiofrequency (RF) energy with microneedling. Thirty six (36) microneedles create micro-injuries in the skin, which trigger the body’s natural healing response, while the RF energy heats the deeper layers, stimulating collagen and elastin production.
Areas it can treat:
- Face
- Eyes
- Arms
- Neck
- Abdomen
Benefits:
- Enhanced Collagen Production: The combination of RF energy and microneedling significantly boosts collagen and elastin production, leading to improved skin texture and firmness.
- Customizable: The depth and intensity of the treatment can be adjusted to suit the patient’s specific needs, allowing for a personalized approach to skin rejuvenation.
- Reduced Downtime: While Virtue RF is minimally invasive, the downtime is relatively short compared to surgical options. Patients may experience some redness and swelling, but these side effects typically subside within a few days.
Emface is a revolutionary, 20 minute facial treatment that combines radiofrequency (RF) and high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energies. This dual approach targets both the skin and underlying muscles, providing a comprehensive facial rejuvenation. It can also treat the double chin, lifting the sagged area!
Benefits:
- Muscle Stimulation: The HIFEM technology stimulates facial muscles, improving tone and contour.
- Collagen Production: RF energy boosts collagen and elastin production, leading to firmer and smoother skin.
- Non-Invasive: No needles or surgery are required, making it a comfortable option for many patients.
iWave uses microwave Hyper02 tech that combines radial-focused microwaves and propulsion oxygen to treat cellulite and tone tissues. It also reaches under the fat of the skin, making the fat cells vibrate and break down.
Areas it can treat:
- Arms
- Legs
- Inner Tights
- Abdomen
Benefits:
- Skin Rejuvenation: Improves skin tone and texture by addressing pigmentation and vascular lesions.
- Collagen Boost: RF energy promotes collagen synthesis, resulting in firmer skin.
- Versatility: Effective on various areas, including the face, neck, and body.
- Minimal Downtime: Patients can resume normal activities shortly after treatment.
Exilis utilizes radiofrequency and ultrasound technology to deliver controlled heating to the skin and subcutaneous tissues. This stimulates collagen remodeling and enhances skin elasticity. It’s a great quick fix to help melt stubborn fat!
Areas it can treat:
Benefits:
- Targeted Treatment: The combination of RF and ultrasound allows precise targeting of problem areas.
- Non-Surgical: Provides an alternative to surgical procedures with no incisions or anesthesia.
- Comfortable: Patients experience a warming sensation during treatment, with minimal discomfort.
- Effective: Suitable for both facial and body skin tightening.
This is a body reshaping system that uses confined microwaves called “Coolwaves” to target fat tissues, cellulite and skin laxity. This treatment delivers heat directly to fat cells to break down cell membrane. The difference between this and its predecessor (Onda Coolwaves) is the “PLUS” handpiece comes with a drainage massage that helps in improving superficial microcirculation and expulsion of excess body fluids
Areas it can treat:
- Thighs
- buttocks
- Back fat
- Thighs
- Underarms
Benefits:
- Fat Reduction: Efficiently reduces localized fat deposits. You can see optimised results 45-60 days post treatment.
- Cellulite Reduction: Smooths and tightens the skin, diminishing the appearance of cellulite. Results can be seen 30-45 days after first treatment.
- Skin tightening: collagen production starts 30-40 days from the first treatment. Optimised results come out post-3rd or 4th treatment.
Skin Reboot is another facial treatment that lifts, contours, and refreshes the skin through radio frequency and microcurrent. True to its name, it can reboot your skin, restoring elasticity!
Areas it can treat:
Benefits:
- Collagen Stimulation: The combination of radiofrequency and microcurrent significantly boosts collagen and elastin production.
- Texture Improvement: Reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
- Customizable: Treatment intensity can be adjusted based on individual skin concerns.
- Minimal Downtime: Short recovery period with minimal side effects.
