About Skintyte
This treatment takes about 45 minutes per area and is done in the office. The most commonly treated areas are the face, neck, and upper chest. There is minimal if any, facial swelling the first day, but no break in the skin. You can wear make-up immediately. Because of the novel mechanism of action, optimal results from dermal remodeling are seen over a three to six-month period. Most patients require an average of 3-5 treatments spaced one month apart. However, because each patient’s skin is different, the treatment number can vary.
The majority of patients feel that their skin is tighter after just one treatment, but visible improvements in skin laxity generally take place over three to six months. This exciting new technology is perfect for those who wish to tighten and firm up their skin, with virtually no downtime. However, mild results should be expected, nothing compared to results with facelift or laser resurfacing procedures. 1-2 maintenance treatments per year can help to maintain the result and prevent the natural acceleration of skin aging that normally occurs. The optimal regimen would include simultaneous BBL™ photofacial (for brown spots and capillaries) with SkintyteTM treatments (for skin firming and wrinkle improvement) on the same day.
