It seems that laser technology can do it all when it comes to skin tightening procedures but at Ogden Skin Care Center we know radio frequency is the best way to treat skin conditions such as sagging, drooping, and aging skin without the expense and dangers of plastic surgery. The radio frequency skin tightening system has widely been used to produce collagen in the skin, which increases its elasticity and firmness. The energy from the waves heats the sub-dermal tissues, producing desired aesthetic effects such as diminished fine lines, wrinkles, and loose skin. Skin firming and lifting knocks decades off your face and neck where it counts. Visit our clinic for skin tightening before and after photographs or check out our skin tightening reviews and you will witness the magical effects of the best skin tightening treatment of the skin industry!
Quick Q & A
1) Laser skin tightening does it work? a. Yes! Laser skin tightening works just fine using an infrared light source to target and heat skin tissues. Comparatively, results are just as dramatic as seen in radio frequency (thermal) skin tightening except more sessions may be needed with laser skin tightening. Therefore, we use radio frequency instead. Thermal skin tightening has been effective in reducing fat, skin tightening procedures for thighs and buttocks reduces and removes cellulite, and the face tightening procedures reduces the appearance of tired, aged skin. Collagen is a protein found in skin and connective tissues and is the major player in keeping the body firm, tight and elastic (able to resist damage). Thermal energy, like that seen in Thermage skin tightening, has proved successful in collagen support, and will continue to as uni-polar, bipolar, tri-polar and more radio frequencies are being cleared for use.
2) How long does laser skin tightening and RF tightening last? a. Treatment results can last 1 to 3 years, depending on the procedure and the area.
3) What is the average RF tightening cost? a. Cost is a factor that shouldn’t be a deciding one when it comes to quality and effectiveness. The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery lists national averages of common nonsurgical aesthetic procedure fees should you need to budget for these procedures. Typically, skin tightening in our office will cost upwards of $4000 for multiple treatment packages but can go as low as $1000.
