Want to know what makes FaceTite tighten skin? U Plastic Surgery + Aesthetics is proud to serve you in Owings Mills and the Baltimore area. In our office, Dr. Tag uses the latest in cosmetic technology to help you achieve a youthful look. One of our tools is FaceTite. This advanced procedure uses radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) to tighten skin and contour your face and neck. But what exactly is it, and what can it do for you?
What is FaceTite?
FaceTite is a relatively newer cosmetic procedure that offers an impressive way to add some elasticity back to your skin. The biggest benefit is the way it helps contour your face. And there’s no need for invasive surgery. Using radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL), FaceTite delivers precise and controlled heat to both the outer and deeper layers of your skin. It generates thermal energy, encourages collagen production, and dissolves unwanted fat. Your skin tightens and becomes more toned, giving you a refreshed and youthful appearance.
Dr. Tag at U Plastic Surgery + Aesthetics uses FaceTite to target common problem areas like the neck, chin, and jowls. You can have great results if you don’t need a full facelift or are not ready for one without extensive downtime, scarring, or discomfort. FaceTite works great if you’re seeking a natural-looking enhancement. It promotes internal and external skin remodeling and long-lasting improvements in your skin’s vigor and contour.
Science Behind The Scenes
Now you know a little bit about FaceTite and its purpose. It works similarly to BodyTite but for your face and neck. It works wonders for restoring your skin to its original position and form. Let’s examine its inner mechanics to learn more about how it helps your skin.
Thermodynamics of Radiofrequency (RF)
FaceTite uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to generate heat. The heat travels through the lower parts of your skin. It’s a controlled thermal effect that causes water molecules in your skin tissue to vibrate. You know how rubbing your hands together makes them hot? Water molecules work the same way. Vibrating causes friction, which produces heat. The heat tightens collagen fibers and kickstarts the production of new collagen.
Improvements in Collagen
The heat from RF energy not only strengthens existing collagen fibers but also triggers neocollagenesis. It’s the process of forming new collagen. Neocollagenesis increases your skin’s stretchiness and firmness over time.
FaceTite Phases Out Fat
In addition to tightening skin, FaceTite can target and get rid of subcutaneous fat. Heat-induced lipolysis breaks down fat cells, which are then naturally absorbed and processed by your body.
Energetic Enchantment
FaceTite’s bipolar RF technology produces a calibrated amount of energy between the internal and external electrodes. The device continuously monitors your skin’s temperature to maintain optimal heating levels. That’s the best way to make the treatment safe and effective.
FaceTite Stays Out of Your Business
One of the standout features of FaceTite is its minimally invasive nature. The procedure involves small incisions. Dr. Tag typically performs it while you’re under local anesthesia. This approach reduces trauma to the skin and underlying tissues, resulting in minimal scarring, reduced downtime, and faster recovery compared to conventional surgical methods.
Daring Dance Partners
Looking to boost your FaceTite results even further? We always pair your FaceTime treatment with Morpheus8. Like FaceTite, Morpheus8 is minimally invasive. It combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to target the deeper layers of the skin. While FaceTite focuses on tightening and contouring by stimulating collagen and obliterating fat, Morpheus8 goes a step further. It improves your skin’s texture, elasticity, and volume, which also aids in the skin tightening process.
As FaceTite tightens and sculpts your face, Morpheus8 works on restoring skin quality. It reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity. By inducing the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, Morpheus8 helps to give you back a youthful, glowing complexion.
Many of our patients pair the first Facetite and Morpheus8 treatment with two more Morpheus8 treatments spread apart for 4-6 weeks to continue the enhancement to get the best overall results possible.
Amazing Advantages
FaceTite offers a range of benefits if you’re looking to get a more youthful and shapely appearance without the need for invasive surgery. It makes your skin look wholesome, supple, and vibrant. But even better, it makes your skin healthier as well.
Results You Can Bank On
FaceTite delivers results that not only look great immediately but also continue to improve over time. The RF energy stimulates ongoing collagen production. Your skin’s tightness and elasticity will keep getting better for 6-12 months after your procedure. FaceTite’s results are long-lasting but obviously do not stop the aging process as, unfortunately, nothing can. The best part? You get a long-term solution for facial rejuvenation without the need for repeat treatments.
Incorruptible Contours
FaceTite’s ability to precisely target specific areas, such as your neck, chin, and jowls, allows for finely-tuned contouring that fits with your authentic facial features. Some procedures can lead to an artificial or “overdone” appearance. Not FaceTite. It works with your body’s natural processes to create subtle, harmonious improvements. The result is a refreshed and youthful look that still feels like you. But better.
Down With Downtime
Compared to traditional facelift surgery, FaceTite involves significantly less downtime and discomfort. Most of Dr. Tag’s patients experience only a little swelling and bruising, which typically subsides within a few days. Since the procedure is minimally invasive, there is also a lower risk of complications, allowing for a smoother and quicker recovery. This makes FaceTite an excellent option for those who want noticeable results without the extended recovery period associated with more invasive procedures.
