As we age, skin laxity is an inevitability adding years to our facial appearance. Conventional skin tightening methods included chemical peels, dermabrasion and laser resurfacing. Dramatic results could be achieved but at the cost of increased risk, prolonged recovery time and discomfort. Today’s active lifestyles leave little time for post-operative recuperation. Now there is a simple, quick and noninvasive alternative: Deep Dermal Healing. Safely and painlessly, loose skin on the face, neck, arms and abdomen can be tightened. Without damaging the skins surface, laser light (in the near-infrared wavelength range) effectively heats the inner layer—dermis—of the skin. For most, an immediate contraction of existing collagen fibers leads to a subtle tightening. However the majority of tightening will be seen in the following four to six weeks as new collagen is formed.
Treatments take about 30 minutes and are well tolerated. All patients are able to return to their normal activities immediately.
As each treatment builds upon the others, the best improvement is seen with three to five sessions spaced three to four weeks apart.
Firm skin is essential for a young vibrant look, and with deep dermal heating, it is possible to improve overall firmness and tightness of the skin without injury or downtime.
