Skin tightening procedures are able to tighten and smooth the skin for a healthier, more youthful glow. These procedures promote new collagen growth deep within the skin in order to decrease the appearance of wrinkles and provide an overall refreshed look to the skin.
At the office of Facial Plastic Surgeon Dr. Steven H. Dayan of Chicago, Illinois, we use multiple technologies for skin tightening. These can improve mild to moderate fine lines and wrinkles occurring around the eyes and mouth, as well as mild to moderate skin laxity, or sagging in various spots on the body. It is a good option for individuals in need of more limited lifting who are not yet ready for a facelift, and for those who have already had a facelift and need a little touch-up.
Minimally invasive skin tightening procedures are performed in the office, do not require anesthesia and involve minimal risk. Treatment times average thirty minutes to one hour depending on the area being treated. It is important to remember that these are progressive treatments. Results are not seen immediately but rather improve with time.
