SKINTYTE FAQ’s
-
SkinTyte is a procedure that uses infrared energy to heat collagen deep within your skin. This heat stimulates your body's natural healing responses, promoting the production of new collagen and enhancing skin firmness. The treatment includes powerful cooling to keep the skin's surface cool throughout, ensuring a comfortable and safe experience for the patient.
-
SkinTyte is recommended for individuals seeking moderate and noticeable skin tightening results, particularly those who prefer non-surgical options over invasive procedures. It is suitable for patients looking to enhance skin firmness and improve overall skin texture without the downtime associated with surgery.
-
During the SkinTyte treatment, you can expect to experience a sequence of rapid and gentle pulses of light energy targeting the treatment area. Unlike some other treatments, SkinTyte typically does not require the use of a topical anesthetic cream. The procedure involves multiple pulses delivered over the area to optimize the skin tightening results.
-
For optimal results, SkinTyte is typically performed in a series of 5 treatments spaced approximately 3-4 weeks apart. Visible improvements may become noticeable after the second or third session, with the full extent of enhancement often appearing within four months.
-
SkinTyte treatments are suitable for all skin tones and can effectively target various areas of the body to enhance skin firmness. Common treatment areas include:
- Face
- Neck
- Abdomen
- Arms
- Thighs
-
There is no downtime associated with SkinTyte treatments. After the procedure, you may experience slight redness or pinkness in the treated area, which typically subsides within 20-30 minutes. You can resume your normal activities immediately, including applying makeup and returning to work. It's important to protect your skin from direct sun exposure and use sunscreen regularly to maintain optimal results.
