Skin tightening

Sagging skin can be hard to deal with, especially since it cannot be easily targeted with diet and exercise alone. Wherever you find it—over the cheekbones, around your chin, under your arms, or along your waistline—loose skin is a struggle. In the past, surgical procedures or injectables have been the go-to solution for skin tightening. Fortunately, that isn't the case anymore.

Non-surgical radio frequency treatments rejuvenate the appearance of skin by safely and comfortably heating the tissue under the skin's surface. This triggers the natural production of collagen and elastin, the key building blocks of healthy, youthful skin. The result is effortlessly tighter, smoother, and younger-looking skin.

Skin tightening devices

Venus Concept’s non-surgical skin tightening treatments use heat to naturally boost collagen production below the surface, which improves the appearance of sagging skin on the face and body, and helps to restore a more rejuvenated, youthful-looking appearance.

FEATURES:

  • Advanced radio frequency technology that safely delivers tighter, smoother skin
  • Technology that is safe for all skin tones
  • Comfortable treatments with no downtime
  • Quick treatment sessions last no more than 30 minutes

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about your skin tightening treatment.

BEFORE THE TREATMENT

1. Am I a good candidate for this treatment? / Will this treatment work for me?

The best candidate is someone who is starting to lose elasticity in their skin and is showing early signs of sagging and wrinkles.

For safety reasons, you may not be able to get this treatment if you have/are:

  • Active inflammation and/or infection in the treatment area
  • Current or history of cancer
  • A degenerative neurologic disease or any other disease around the treatment area that’s triggered by heat (e.g. herpes)
  • An Internal defibrillator/pacemaker
  • Metal implants (excluding dental) in the treatment area
  • Uncontrolled thyroid gland disorder
  • Varicose veins
  • Pregnant or are undergoing an IVF procedure
  • Skin-related autoimmune diseases
  • Silicone implants and/or injections in the area

2. I have darker skin – can I still get this treatment done?

Yes. Venus Concept’s skin tightening treatments use technology that’s safe for all skin tones, even darker ones.

3. Can I do it during my lunch break?

Absolutely. Exact treatment times may vary depending on the patient, but a single session typically takes no longer than 30 minutes.

4. How many sessions will I need to see results?

Most patients receive 6-8 treatments per area. The exact number will depend on each individual person and the area being treated.

5. How often/far apart should the treatments be?

Treatments are done once a week.

6. Do I need to do anything to prepare for the treatment?

Just make sure your skin is clean. Do not apply any lotions, creams or makeup before your treatment. Remove all jewelry around the area being treated.

DURING THE TREATMENT

1. How long does a treatment session last?

Each session lasts 15-30 minutes, depending on the area being treated.

2. What does the treatment feel like?

The applicator will slowly get warmer till your skin reaches the needed temperature and stays within that temperature range. But if you do feel it’s too hot, just let the operator know and they can easily lower the temperature a bit.

3. Will it be painful?

Treatments are comfortable. Some say it feels like a relaxing hot stone massage. Some even fall asleep during the treatment.

AFTER THE TREATMENT

1. How will I feel after my treatment?

If anything, you’ll feel relaxed. The treatment is comfortable and has been compared to a relaxing hot stone massage. Some patients have even fallen asleep while they were getting treated.

2. How long will the results last and are they permanent?

The treatments are cumulative. After your final treatment, your results will continue to improve for up to 3-4 months. After that, your face and body continue to age, so maintenance is recommended once a month or every 3-4 months, depending on the person.

3. Is there really no downtime?

Absolutely no downtime. The treatment area may look a little flushed and warm to the touch, but this will go away within 1-2 hours. You can return to your daily schedule immediately after your treatment.

4. Do I need to do anything after my treatment?

No, you do not need to do anything after your treatment.

5. Can I put makeup on right after my treatment?

Yes, you can apply makeup immediately after your treatment.
