FACETITE

FACE CONTOURING TREATMENT

As the years go by, the effects of aging may lead to unflattering changes in the face and neck. The once defined jawline is now draped with jowls on both sides. Perhaps the skin on the neck has started to fold and sag. Or maybe some of the once fine lines have suddenly deepened into wrinkles. Everyone wants the long-lasting improvement that facelift or neck lift surgery can provide, but the serious risks can easily outweigh any benefits.


Now, you can safely erase the years away from your face and neck and get dramatic, natural-looking results with FaceTite, a revolutionary new treatment that harnesses the power of radiofrequency energy. Incredibly safe and minimally invasive, FaceTite is an excellent treatment alternative for anyone who wants amazing results without the trauma and drawbacks of surgery.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • HOW DOES FACETITE WORK?

    FaceTite uses radio frequency energy to gently heat and melt the fat under the skin tissue, while stimulating the body’s production of collagen and elastin. This is accomplished through the insertion of a very fine cannula into the skin, which precisely delivers the radio frequency energy to the underlying tissues, thereby rejuvenating the skin from within.

  • WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED?

    FaceTite can effectively treat the following concerns: 

    • Double chin
    • Sagging or loose skin on the cheeks
    • Jowls
    • Fine lines and wrinkles
    • Excess or loose skin on the neck (turkey neck)
    • Excess fat on the face, jawline, and neck
  • WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING TREATMENT?

    Treatment is performed with local anesthesia to ensure a comfortable, gentle, and pain-free experience. The actual procedure should take about one hour to complete, but the entire visit may take about 3 to 4 hours of your time.

  • HOW MUCH DOWNTIME CAN I EXPECT?

    Once your FaceTite treatment is completed, you will be given a compression garment to wear. Please follow the doctor's instructions and wear the compression garment exactly as directed. We strongly advise that you wear the garment for at least 3 days to relieve post-treatment swelling. 


    Recovery takes about 1 to 2 days, with most patients coming back to work after 2 days. 


    Please keep the treated areas clean and dry. For the first week after treatment, you should only use gentle skin care products and refrain from engaging in intense physical activity. Though you can use makeup after the first 24 hours, we advise staying make-up free (if possible) during the first week to avoid prolonging your recovery. You should also wear sunscreen whenever you’re outdoors and take any prescribed antibiotics as directed. 

  • ARE THERE ANY RISKS OR POTENTIAL SIDE EFFECTS?

    FaceTite is one of the safest cosmetic procedures available today. There is usually some swelling and discomfort after the procedure, but this usually subsides after a few days. Some bruising in the treated area may occur, but again, this should resolve itself within a week or a few days. Rare but more complicated side effects include infection, scarring, nerve damage, and burns. These side effects can be mostly avoided and successfully minimized by going to a reputable and experienced provider, and by following post-care instructions as directed. 

  • WHEN SHOULD I SEE RESULTS AND HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?

    Most patients report seeing improvement after just a few days. The skin in the treated areas should be noticeably smoother and tighter after the first week and should continue to smoothen and tighten over the next several months. Results can last for several years and may last even longer if you: 

    • Maintain a healthy diet and exercise regimen
    • Practice good skin care habits 
    • Wear sunscreen regularly when outdoors
    • Stop smoking
    • Stay hydrated
    • Undergo occasional maintenance cosmetic treatments 
  • HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE RECOMMENDED?

    Generally, most patients will need 1 to 3 treatments to achieve their desired results.  

  • WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF FACETITE TREATMENTS?

    FaceTite offers many advantages, which include:

    • Short treatment and recovery times  
    • Near immediate results and continued improvement over the next several months
    • Dramatic improvement comparable to facelift or neck lift surgery
    • Natural-looking results that can last for up to 5 years, much longer than other non-surgical cosmetic interventions
    • Significantly reduced risk of scarring, side effects, and injury
