What Is FaceTite?
No matter how healthy our lifestyle or how good our genes are, we all eventually will see the signs of aging. Often the first areas that we notice are around the face and neck and can start in our early 30s and 40s. Most patients are not candidates for face lifting until they reach their late 50s or 60s due to beneficial use of dermal fillers and neurotoxins.
The obvious solution is plastic surgery, but full surgery is not something many will or should consider, especially earlier in the aging process. There are minimally invasive and noninvasive procedures that have been around for some time but results have been mixed and usually fall short of expectations compared to a facelift. There is a new technology that is changing that for many people, FaceTiite from InMode.
For body contouring, hundreds of thousands of women undergo liposuction every year. The latest generation of this technology is less invasive and quite effective, using radiofrequency energy to destroy fat cells. Under local anesthesia, a needle-like probe is inserted under the skin while the device’s trailing arm touches the outside of the skin. Radiofrequency (RF) energy is sent through the fat layers and the skin destroying fat cells and tightening the skin from the inside and out. This skin tightening is something that traditional liposuction never addressed and makes this treatment unique. FaceTite is a smaller version of the same device that is designed to tighten skin and remove fatty deposits in the face and neck area.
This technology gives immediate results that improve over time, getting better over a period of months. There is minimal bruising and minimal downtime associated with the FaceTite procedure allowing patients to get back to work right away. Because the FaceTite device is inserted like a needle there is no incision or scarring like you would expect with a facelift. While RF technology has been used for years to shape areas of the body (Thermage is one such treatment), they were limited in the amount of energy that could be used so as not to damage the outer layers of skin. Because FaceTitle directs the energy from under the skin, more energy can be used for a superior result.
This procedure also remodels the fat layers under the skin providing a nice smoothing effect. If you are looking for dramatic, surgery like results in your neck and face area but are trying to avoid surgery, then FaceTite is something to consider. This new generation of RF lipolysis and skin tightening with faster recovery makes it an excellent option for even the busiest working women and moms. Patients are seeing amazing results after 30-minute procedures targeting the chin, neck and jawline areas. If you don’t like the way your neck and chin looks but aren’t ready for a facelift then this could be the solution you have been looking for.
If these kinds of results and this latest generation of RF technology sound interesting to you, Paragon Clinic also offers the full range of InMode treatments including FaceTite, AccuTite, BodyTite and radio frequency-assisted microneedling treatment called Morpheus8.
The latter treatment delivers amazing results in a non-surgical setting and can be done on your lunch hour. If you are just looking for facial skin tightening then Morpheus8 might be a great solution for you. I recommend booking a free consultation with my office. We will assess where you are with the Vectra Scan 3D, what your desired outcome is and discuss the best treatment options.
