Procedure Technique
FaceTite is normally used to deal with smaller, more sensitive areas, like the lines which form around your mouth and below the eyes, in addition to the loose skin around the neck and chin region. You're an ideal candidate for this treatment if you are experiencing early signs of aging and desire a boost in collagen production to achieve skin that is tighter. To be able to undergo this therapy, you shouldn't be pregnant or have had facial injections performed over the previous 6 – 8 months. An appointment with Dr. Lou may better help you learn more about your qualification for this procedure.
What to Expect
Following a FaceTite treatment, you'll be sent home to rest and relax for the remaining portion of the day, wearing a special garment. You will be ready to go back to your normal routine by the following day. It can take approximately three days for any discoloration or swelling to fade. Strenuous exercises and activities should be avoided for around two weeks after the treatment. Patients will generally see some results after their FaceTite therapy. But since the process involves stimulating the collagen growth process, you may notice more gradual improvements for about 3 – 8 weeks afterward. Your results will likely be long-lasting should you maintain a healthy weight through proper diet plan and exercise.
