WHAT IS SKINTYTE?
SkinTyte is an advanced, infrared light treatment that can make skin look tighter and younger. The device produces broadband light at different wavelengths to heat the skin, causing controlled damage and encouraging collagen production. The resulting increase in collagen improves the look and feel of the skin by adding renewed structure and a framework for moisture-loving hyaluronic acid.
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR SKINTYTE?
SkinTyte can be ideal for women and men who want to delay or avoid surgical skin tightening procedures. It is safe for all skin types and does not involve incisions or sutures.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF SKINTYTE?
SkinTyte reduces crepiness and wrinkles and restores tighter, more youthful contours. The treatment is designed primarily to address fine lines and wrinkles, loss of elasticity, and sagging skin. Each patient’s skin type is different, so treatments will be customized to fit a person’s unique skin type, treatment area, and aesthetic goals. It can be used for enhancing the skin of your face, neck, and body.
WHAT HAPPENS DURING AND AFTER A SKINTYTE SESSION IN PHILADELPHIA AND VILLANOVA?
This light-based treatment is completed in just 30 minutes. The laser passes over the skin to deliver gentle heat and encourage collagen production. You can return to your normal activities right away after a session. Many patients describe the resulting sensation as a relaxing hot stone massage. Still, you will be able to apply makeup and resume your normal activities as soon as you feel comfortable to do so.
SkinTyte provides long-lasting improvements. The results of SkinTyte last for around six to 12 months—or longer—on average. Your age, diet, exercise regimen, and skincare habits will all impact the longevity of your results. We recommended that you routinely wear a high SPF sunscreen to prolong the effects for as long as possible by guarding against ultraviolet radiation damage.
WHAT ARE OTHER TREATMENTS TO ENHANCE THE FACE?
Cross Medical Group also provides Ultherapy®, an ultrasound-based skin tightening treatment that penetrates below the skin’s surface and uses high-intensity ultrasound to promote the production of collagen. This option may provide more dramatic results for some patients. SkinTyte can often be combined with Ultherapy® to maximize skin tightening results. Laser Skin resurfacing, BBL IPL and photorejuvenation, Moxi, and Halo are some energy-based options for improving the general tone, pigmentation, and texture of the skin.
There are also a variety of surgical procedures for skin tightening, including a facelift to refine the mid-face area and a neck lift to restore a smoother neckline for patients who have severe sagging skin.
Patients who are interested in adding volume may want to consider a facial fat transfer or injectable fillers. Facial fillers—such as Restylane®, Juvederm® Voluma®, and Juvederm Vollure™—add volume and lift in order to better define facial contours or soften wrinkles.
