There will be multiple options when it comes to skin tightening treatments, but the best way to choose one is to consult about your skin issues with a dermatologist or licensed cosmetic surgeon.
Different types of Skin firming procedures
If you to get a firm skin, the following treatments will be helpful:
- RF energy for neck and jowls,
which heats up the collagen under your skin
- RF for the body is a better
alternative for Liposuction
- Ultrasound energy or ultra therapy
can firm the skin using the sound waves
- Plastic surgery is one of the
costly but effective surgical skin firming procedures
- Coolsculpting and kybella can be used to firm the chin area
Skin tightening process
Let’s get a wider idea
about how the above-mentioned processes are carried out.
- In the RF energy for neck and jowls, a tiny puncture is made to make the deeper level of the skin accessible. This way the skin is tightened from both ways – inside out and outside in, making this one of the most long-lasting treatments.
- To conduct RF for the body, local anesthesia is needed. Though there will a small incision to let the straw pass through the skin, you won’t have any scars.
- In Ultrasound energy, the sound is focused at various depths according to the need of the individuals. The treatment requires a lot of heat, but the best thing is that it doesn’t burn the skin while reaching the deeper layer.
- If you choose plastic surgery, you may get the best result, but the downtime is quite long and there will be visible scarring.
- The coolsculpting process freezes the fat cells while the kybella procedure melts the unwanted fats.
