Achieving Youthful Skin: How Non-Surgical Skin Tightening Treatment Can Help

We can’t stop the aging process in our bodies, but we can slow it down and minimize the visible signs! There are some dietary and lifestyle changes you can make to preserve your skin, but that’s not all. There are various non-surgical skin-tightening, radiofrequency, and laser treatments you can get that’ll make a huge difference, especially when you’re consistent.

The Signs of Aging

How do you know when it’s time for procedures like skin tightening, cellulite reduction or fat reduction? loss of elasticity and plumpness are signs of age.

It’s important to have balanced diet and exercise routine, while still monitoring your skin’s condition. Keep an eye out for the following things that may mean your skin is aging faster than it should be:

• Decrease in elasticity
• Rough texture
• Cellulite

Our skin tightening treatments are gentle, non-invasive, and beautifully effective.

What is Non-Surgical Skin Tightening?

Rather self-explanatory, radiofrequency skin tightening is the practice of firming and toning loose or sagging skin – a condition known as skin laxity. There are many different ways to treat this, some much more invasive than others. Surgical intervention has been a common solution for generations, especially for more severe cases.

Recent advancements and innovations in technology, however, have allowed the introduction of much gentler methods that don’t break your skin or invade your body.

Venus Legacy

For example, our Venus Legacy skin tightening device is a fantastic option for those dealing with mild to moderate skin laxity. The Venus Legacy body contouring treatment uses radio frequency skin tightening to help you firm and rejuvenate your skin safely and naturally with non-surgical skin tightening.

The process uses radiofrequency technology. When applied, these waves bring the lower levels of your skin to a temperature of 40-45 degrees Celsius. Once heated, the body releases heat-shock proteins which stimulate collagen fiber production in the body. Collagen is produced naturally by the body, but this treatment forces more of it to the surface, allowing for a tightening effect.

While many can benefit from the rejuvenating powers of skin tightening, it’s a particularly common procedure for those with loose skin post-weight loss. The influx of collagen also provides skin with a glowing and plumper appearance, making it look younger all around!

Morpheus 8

Morpheus 8 is another great option that offers laser skin tightening. A Morpheus 8 treatment is minimally invasive and uses radiofrequency and micro-needling technology for an effective laser treatment that provides deep tissue penetration. Morpheus 8 body treatments are superior to a standard collagen induction therapy, offering fantastic results with no damage and improved skin texture.

The Many Benefits of Skin Tightening

Skin tightening treatments like those with our Venus Legacy comes with many benefits, both immediate and ongoing:

• Contour even the stubbornest pockets of fat
• Reduce bulge in the upper arms
• Increase collagen production
• Tighten and tone your abdomen for a more defined waistline
• Noticeably reduce cellulite
• Lift and shape the buttocks
• Smooth and tighten thighs for firmer curves

You can experience this and more with the right skin-tightening treatments. You can choose to target only one area and be done, or come back for more until you’ve reached all your toning and contouring goals!

What to Expect from Skin Tightening?

Unlike many other more invasive procedures, our skin tightening sessions are relatively short and you’ll be in and out on the same day. You’ll also be able to resume normal activities pretty quickly – you can even go right back to work if you want to!

Here’s what to expect from the process:

• Treatment time is usually between 20 and 40 minutes, though this will depend on the severity of your loose skin.
• Multiple sessions are often needed to achieve the desired results in each treatment area.
• You should prepare for treatment by drinking lots of water – about two liters within 24 hours before your appointment. Avoid lotions, sunscreen, and makeup on the day of your treatment.
• Ultrasound gel is applied to the area before treatment begins. This may feel quite cold but not painful.
• The device then heats your skin, and you’ll feel the warmth but this is also painless.
• At most, you may experience some mild redness and swelling in the treatment area. This should clear up within a few hours or days, and won’t impede your ability to function day-to-day.
• Results are often seen immediately but can continue developing for around four weeks.
• The results should last up to a few years, provided you continue caring for your skin and generally maintaining an active and healthy lifestyle.
• After treatment, continue drinking lots of water to stay hydrated, and avoid extreme physical activity for a few days.
