Estiramiento de la Piel
Skin tightening treatments are in high demand for anyone who is looking for a more youthful and firm appearance. As we age, experience weight changes, or go through pregnancy, our collagen tends to thin and stretch, leading to loose and saggy skin. This process can be compared to an elastic waistband that loses its stretch over time. Collagen and elastin are essential proteins that are needed for skin elasticity and they can become depleted over time, causing the skin to droop and lose its firmness. Factors such as rapid weight loss, pregnancy, and sun exposure further accelerate this collagen breakdown, making the skin unable to maintain its tight, toned shape.
What Causes Loose and Sagging Skin?
Loose and sagging skin is primarily caused by the depletion of collagen and elastin, the proteins that help our skin stay firm and elastic. As we age, these proteins break down, leading to wrinkles and sagging. Also, rapid weight loss and pregnancy can stretch the skin, leaving it loose. Sun exposure also plays a significant role, breaking down collagen faster and limiting the body’s ability to produce new collagen.
Skin Tightening Treatments We Offer
At Innovations Medical, we offer a variety of skin tightening treatments designed to meet your unique needs. All treatments are performed at our Dallas and Fort Worth locations, using state-of-the-art technology to ensure the best results.
Legend Progressive Skin Tightening
Legend Progressive Skin Tightening uses advanced radiofrequency energy to gradually heat the tissue, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin. This treatment is effective for anyone looking to address loose, saggy skin without surgery. By heating the tissue to 40-42º Celsius in a controlled manner, the collagen molecules shrink and stimulate new collagen growth. The result is firmer, tighter skin that continues to improve over time. Ideal candidates include anyone with loose skin looking for an easy non-invasive solution.
SmartXide DOT
SmartXide DOT is a fractional CO2 laser treatment that targets aging and sun-damaged skin. This laser creates tiny spots in the skin, promoting the production of new collagen and skin cells. The process helps reduce wrinkles, improve skin texture, and give a rejuvenated appearance. The treatment involves creating microscopic holes in the skin, which the body naturally heals, replacing damaged skin with fresh, healthy new skin. Recovery involves some redness and swelling, but the results are well worth it.
Thermage Skin Tightening
Thermage Skin Tightening is a non-invasive treatment that uses radiofrequency to tighten the skin and reduce wrinkles. The procedure works by heating the skin to stimulate collagen contraction and growth and the result is firmer, smoother skin. Thermage is great for anyone who wants immediate results with minimal downtime. The treatment is quick, typically taking about an hour, and patients can return to their normal activities immediately afterward.
Fraxel Restore and Dual
Fraxel Restore and Dual treatments use fractional laser technology to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin. The laser creates tiny treatment areas, prompting the body to heal and produce new skin. This process improves skin texture, reduces scars and pigmentation issues, and creates a more youthful appearance. Multiple sessions are usually required, with recovery involving some redness and swelling. The results are long-lasting, with continued improvement over several months.
Clear+Brilliant
Clear+Brilliant is a gentle laser resurfacing treatment that complements other skin tightening methods. It targets tiny areas in the skin to stimulate new skin and collagen production, resulting in smoother, more youthful skin with little to no downtime. This treatment is perfect for those looking to maintain their youthful appearance or for a gentle reduction in fine lines and pigmentation issues. The procedure is quick and easy, with no recovery time required.
