FaceTite

As people get older, their skin starts to lose its firmness, leading to issues such as laxity or sagging. This process of skin loosening ultimately results in the formation of small fat pockets, causing bags under the eyes, jowls, and other displeasing changes.

At Marcus Medical Spa, we offer FaceTite, an innovative skin treatment with proven efficacy at reversing the early signs of aging and providing remarkable, striking results.

What is FaceTite?

FaceTite is an FDA-approved device that tightens the skin of the neck and face while simultaneously attenuating small fat pockets in the treatment area. A minimally invasive procedure, FaceTite has a proven ability at reducing fine lines, addressing skin laxity, and treating other related issues. The approved areas of treatment with FaceTite include the brows, the eye area, the jowls, the cheeks, and the neck, among other areas.

How does FaceTite work?

FaceTite utilizes a process known as Radio Frequency-Assisted Lipolysis (RFAL). During a FaceTite procedure, RF (radio frequency) waves are transmitted into the skin and tissues in order to melt and break down excess fat. This process also stimulates the production of vital proteins such as collagen and elastin, which are responsible for making the skin tighter and more youthful. Collagen and elastin work internally to redefine the texture and contours of the skin, leaving the patient with a vibrant glow.

What does a FaceTite treatment entail?

Before the FaceTite treatment begins, a local anesthetic is applied to the area to ensure that the patient is totally comfortable. The treatment usually takes about two hours to complete.

The procedure starts with a very small incision. This small incision is used as a means of inserting the FaceTite device into the treatment area, allowing it to administer radiofrequency waves directly into the target area. The RF waves break down excess fat cells and stimulate collagen production in the deep layers of the skin. A tube is employed to remove all of the destroyed fat in a careful manner.

Once the procedure has been completed, compression garments are placed onto the treatment sites to mitigate swelling and facilitate the healing process. The new contours set in as the skin tightens up.

What are the benefits of FaceTite?

FaceTite has a wide array of benefits for patients who would like to address signs of aging in the face without resorting to a facelift or other surgical procedures. Some benefits include:

Slimming and contouring of the face
A reduction in troublesome fat pockets that accumulate on the face and neck
Fantastic results after only one treatment
A very short recovery period
No scarring
A non-surgical procedure
Immediate results that show up in as little as a week and continue to improve
A tighter and more sculpted jawline
Sagging neck and facial skin becomes more firm
Improved facial contours
A reduction in fine lines and wrinkles

Who is a good candidate for FaceTite?

Candidates for FaceTite are patients who are struggling with signs of aging, such as skin laxity, fine lines, and small pockets of excess facial fat but are not willing to go through with a surgical procedure, such as a facelift.

Additionally, the following requirements can determine candidacy for this procedure:

Are in good physical and mental health
Are free of all serious medical conditions
Are not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
Have not undergone any facial treatments for at least 6 to 8 months
Are at a healthy weight that is unlikely to fluctuate
Are dealing with skin laxity that is only mild or moderate (not severe)
Are not currently ready to undergo a surgical procedure
Are struggling with a double chin or jowls

Recovery and results

Patients usually need a few days to recover following their FaceTite treatment. Swelling and bruising are both normal during this time, but they will dissipate within a week. Most patients are able to get back to work and their normal routines after several days.

The initial results of the procedure are usually noticeable within the first week. These improvements will become more and more visible throughout the following months as the body uses its enhanced collagen levels to build firmer, more youthful skin.

Only one treatment is required to achieve ideal results. The results from FaceTite are known for being highly long-lasting, providing patients with a revitalized aesthetic that lasts anywhere from 1 to 5 years.
