Tired of loose, saggy skin? So, here’s good news for you. Dermatologists and plastic surgeons nowadays prefer non-surgical treatments to tighten lax, sagging skin on your face and body. These new skin tightening treatments are available in the market easily, and you can consult your doctor or surgeon about what will suit you the best according to your skin type and tone.
We will now discuss these treatments in brief. Read on to know the basics of these treatments.
1. High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU)
Some skin tightening treatments require high intensity focused ultrasound energy to heat skin at specific depths and locations. This induces collagen production to help the skin become firmer. HIFU is widely used to treat brow, chin, neck, and chest. The treatment is best for patients who have early aging signs on their neck and face. The results can be noticed within 2-3 months of therapy.
2. Radiofrequency Treatment (RF)
RF treatment or Radiofrequency treatment also triggers the collagen production of the skin by using heat. However, unlike HIFU, the focus of RF treatment the epidermal layers of face, neck, hand, and body in order to achieve a firmer and smoother appearance. RF treatments are safe for almost all skin types. 2-6 sessions are recommended for optimal results, which appear gradually over months following the therapy.
3. IPL/RF Combination Treatment
Intense Pulse Light (IPL) treatment is combined with Radiofrequency (RF) treatment to tighten the saggy, loose skin of your face and body. In this treatment, IPL with RF heats deeper layers of the skin and generates your body’s natural healing response. This is done with the aim to trigger the natural collagen production of your body which tightens the skin. IPL/RF combination treatment is not suitable for dark or tanned skin people.
Non-surgical skin treatments tighten mild to moderately loose skin without surgery or scars. Many treatments also provide a prominent “lifting” effect. MBA Clinics is one of the leading clinics which provide aesthetic treatments for skin and HIFU therapy is one of them. HIFU is the best non-invasive treatment for loose, saggy skin.
