What is the face tightening procedure?

Our face tightening procedure offers a cutting-edge, minimally invasive solution for achieving a youthful, lifted appearance. We use a special cannula to gently heat and melt superficial fat, causing the skin to shrink and create a natural lift effect. To enhance these results, we also introduce PLLA (polylactic acid) and Hyaluronic Acid, which stimulate collagen production, boosting skin firmness and hydration.To further accelerate healing and optimise results, we finish the treatment with Morpheus 8.

This advanced technology targets skin laxity, enhancing collagen production and delivering a radiant, healthy glow. Unlike traditional facelifts that merely remove excess skin, our procedure not only lifts but also rejuvenates your skin from within, providing a more natural and long-lasting transformation.

Why choose this advanced non-surgical face lift?

Choosing our advanced face tightening procedure offers numerous benefits, especially if you are dealing with various skin conditions.

Here are some important facial concerns it treats:

Skin laxity: Effectively tightens loose, sagging skin.

Superficial fat: Reduces unwanted superficial fat, enhancing facial contours.

Uneven skin texture: Improves skin texture and tone for a more uniform appearance.

Face tightening using the Skin Tight procedure

1. Consultation

 During the consultation, we will assess your skin condition, medical history, and Cosmetic & Medical goals. The practitioner will discuss the details of the face tightening procedure, answer any questions you may have, and determine if you are a suitable candidate for the treatment.

2. Procedure

On the day of the procedure, we will apply a local anaesthetic to ensure your comfort. Afterwards, we will use a special cannula to heat and melt superficial fat, causing the skin to shrink and create a lifting effect. This procedure can be combined with additional treatments such as buccal fat removal, removal of a double chin, or addressing the lower third of the face and the neck to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Additionally, we will inject PLLA (polylactic acid) and Hyaluronic Acid to stimulate collagen production and enhance skin firmness. At the end, we will employ Morpheus 8 technology to further boost collagen and speed up the healing process.

3. Aftercare

After the procedure, we will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal recovery. It is important to wear a compression garment for 1 to 3 weeks to support the treated area and minimise swelling. You should also avoid strenuous activities and follow any specific care guidelines provided by your practitioner to promote healing and achieve the best results.

4. Results after facial tightening procedure

You will notice initial improvements in skin tightness and contour shortly after the procedure, but the final results are after 6 months and a potential touch up might be required based on each case as collagen production continues and the skin fully heals. You can expect a natural, rejuvenated appearance with firmer, more youthful-looking skin. We recommend regular follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and address any concerns.

When is non-surgical face lift procedure recommended?

A non-surgical face lift is recommended when you want to address signs of aging such as sagging skin, fine lines, or loss of elasticity without undergoing invasive surgery. It’s ideal for people seeking subtle, natural-looking enhancements with minimal downtime, making it perfect for those with busy lifestyles.

Examples include addressing early signs of aging in the 30s or 40s, targeting specific areas like a drooping jawline or nasolabial folds, or rejuvenating the skin for special occasions. This procedure is often preferred over surgical options due to its lower risk, quicker recovery, and ability to gradually improve the skin’s appearance using advanced techniques like radiofrequency or ultrasound technology. It’s a versatile and effective solution for maintaining youthful skin without the commitment of surgery.

Face tightening London - Frequently asked questions

The key differences between this procedure and a traditional facelift include the minimally invasive nature of the face tightening treatment, which uses local anaesthesia and results in less downtime compared to the surgical approach of a traditional facelift. Additionally, this procedure not only removes superficial fat and tightens the skin but also stimulates collagen production with PLLA and Hyaluronic Acid injections, providing a more natural and long-lasting rejuvenation.

The face tightening procedure is generally not painful, as we performe it under local anaesthesia to ensure your comfort. Patients may feel some mild discomfort or a slight sensation of heat during the treatment, but it is typically well-tolerated. After the procedure, there might be some temporary swelling, redness, or tenderness in the treated area, which usually subsides within a few days.

You will start to see initial effects of the face tightening procedure shortly after the treatment, with noticeable improvements in skin tightness and contour. However, the full results are after 6 months and a potential touch up might be required based on each case as collagen production continues and the skin fully heals.

The effects of the face tightening procedure can last between 7-15 years, depending on individual factors such as your skin type, age, lifestyle, and how well you follow post-procedure care instructions. The collagen stimulation from the treatment helps maintain skin firmness and elasticity over time, but regular maintenance sessions and a good skincare routine can help prolong the results even further.

The face tightening procedure is generally safe, but potential risks and side effects include temporary swelling, redness, and bruising in the treated area, which typically subside within a few days to a week. Some patients may also experience mild discomfort or tenderness, which usually resolves quickly.

After the face tightening procedure, it is important to avoid strenuous exercise, direct sun exposure, saunas, steam rooms, and hot tubs for at least 48 hours to minimise swelling and irritation. Limit alcohol consumption and avoid touching or rubbing the treated area to prevent infection and ensure optimal results.

The face tightening procedure should be avoided if you have active skin infections, severe acne, or open wounds in the treatment area. Additionally, those with a history of severe allergic reactions to any of the treatment components, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and individuals with certain medical conditions such as autoimmune diseases or uncontrolled diabetes should not undergo this procedure.

The frequency of face tightening procedures depends on individual goals and the specific treatment plan we will tailor for you. Generally, we recommend maintaining the results by treating the laxity of the skin with periodical treatment such as Profilo or Morpheus8 every 6 to 12 months to maintain optimal results and address ongoing skin laxity and ageing concerns. However, some individuals may benefit from more frequent treatments, especially in the initial stages, while others might only require occasional touch-ups.

Yes, you can combine the face tightening procedure with other treatments to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Combining procedures such as buccal fat removal, double chin removal, or treating the lower third of the face and the neck can enhance the overall results, providing a more defined and youthful appearance. We will recommend what is best in your case.
