The SkinTyte procedure utilizes BBL or Broad Band Light energy to deeply heat dermal collagen. This process promotes contraction of collagen. The heat also initiates the body’s natural healing process which creates a renewed collagen foundation leading to increased skin firmness. The SkinTyte light energy is delivered in a sequence of rapid, gentle pulses. There is no need for a topical anesthetic.
While the face and neck can typically be treated in 30 minutes, actual time will depend on the area treated. Since SkinTyte is a non-invasive procedure there is no down time, so you can resume regular activities immediately following the treatment. You can also apply make up and sunscreen after each session. SkinTyte treatments are safe for all skin types and can be preformed on any part of the body where improvements in skin firmness is desired. Popular ares include the face, neck, abdomen, and arms.
SkinTyte is not a substitute for invasive face-lift surgery and results will vary from patient to patient. Full results often take up to four months as the collagen foundation of your skin is rebuilt and strengthened. A series of 4-6 treatments, spaced a month apart, is typical of most patients. A consultation is required for SkinTyte treatments
