Skin Tightening using Laser

This is a great technique that can produce dramatic results. It reduces the look of fine lines, wrinkles and skin that is loose. The skin looks younger and smoother.

The Procedure of Laser Skin Tightening

The procedure is not particularly invasive and doesn’t require surgery. The collagen layer of the skin is heated up so that the skin contracts under the laser’s effects. The tightening of the skin is noticeable right away after you have the procedure and there is generally little recovery time following the laser skin tightening. It tightens even more over a two month period of time. It is recommended that you have around two treatments done about one month apart from one another.

Who is a Candidate?

When the skin starts to sag near the eyes, around the neck and on the ace, it is time to have laser skin tightening. Men or women can have this done and it can be done on all skin colors and types. It is for those people who don’t want to have to recover so long and who don’t want the pain of a big procedure.

What does the procedure cost?

The cost depends on how much body area is being covered, the skill level of the cosmetic physician, and on where you live geographically. The different types of laser used can cost different amounts as well. Speak with your doctor about what the costs of your particular procedure will be, taking into account how many procedures you will have to have done, etc. It is a cheaper procedure than most cosmetic surgery procedures.

The Various Systems Used

There are several skin tightening systems used in laser skin rejuvenation. The skin’s outer layers remain cool while the inner layers are heated up to increase collagen formation. You have only slight discomfort from these procedures. If you have a preference for a particular procedure, ask around to see what kind of procedure your doctor uses.

What are the results of the procedure?

This kind of skin procedure results in tighter, more toned skin. It does not remove any excess skin but instead fills out the skin better with collagen. The recovery time is nominal and you can go back to your regular activities shortly after you have the procedure done.
