Skin laxity and sagging skin are common signs of aging in the skin. However, these cosmetic concerns can be treated through skin tightening treatments that can build collagen and elastin in the skin and give it a firmer and stronger texture.
At Ageless Skin Rejuvenation in Virginia Beach, VA, we are licensed medical practitioners, technicians, and estheticians and we offer a wide range of treatments that can help to tighten skin on the face, neck, abdomen, and more. We offer complimentary consultations that allow us to develop customized plans for you and your skin care concerns.
Microneedling is a treatment that creates microchannels in the skin using tiny sterilized needles. This type of treatment helps to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin in the skin which can cause skin to tighten in the treatment area. At our practice we offer different microneedling treatment options including:
SkinPen by Crown Aesthetics is an FDA-cleared microneedling device. It is a minimally invasive procedure that can promote neck skin tightening. It can also help to address other skin concerns such as acne scarring. The treatment can prompt a natural response in the skin that can lead to increased blood flow, the growth of new tissue, and the production of essential proteins in the skin.
Morpheus 8 combines microneedling technology with radiofrequency (RF) technology. It can minimize fine lines and wrinkles and tighten the skin by creating microchannels in the skin and delivering RF energy into the dermis of the skin. In response, the body can be prompted to begin producing collagen. This treatment can provide loose skin tightening benefits for many areas including the face, neck, chest, and more.
Morpheus8 Body offers the same technology as Morpheus8 but is designed for use on larger areas of the body. It can provide thigh, buttocks, and stomach skin tightening using a bigger handpiece. In addition to tightening sagging skin, it may also be a good treatment for treating cellulite and uneven skin texture.
IPL and laser are light based technologies that can be effective for tightening and rejuvenating the skin. IPL, or intense pulsed light, uses a broad spectrum of light to penetrate the skin and it can help stimulate collagen production. Laser devices use a single wavelength of light that can ablate the skin and produce skin tightening effects as the skin heals.
As your body ages, collagen production slows. The heat energy produced by radiofrequency treatments can help to produce more collagen in areas that are beginning to show more signs of skin laxity. Radiofrequency treatments can be an excellent option for body and face skin tightening.
Made by InMode Aesthetics, Forma tightens the skin by heating the deeper layers of skin and causing collagen and elastin to be produced. As new fibers are produced, the skin can tighten, minimizing fine lines and wrinkles and lifting sagging skin.
Threads are dissolvable sutures that are placed into the skin in a specific pattern to help give your face or neck an instant lift while rebuilding collagen over time. We offer several different options and all of them can help achieve neck and face skin tightening.
Silhouette Instalift is a treatment that uses sutures with tiny cones that help lift and tighten the skin. These sutures are made of a resorbable substance that also stimulates an immune response. Your body sends fibroblasts to the area, creating new collagen in the skin.
NovaThreads are made from Polydioxanone (PDO), an absorbable type of suture that has been used in surgeries for many years. These threads come in barbed, smooth, or twisted varieties to help treat sagging and skin laxity in different areas. They can provide face and neck skin tightening both by lifting the skin into a better position and by stimulating a healing response.
Chemical peels use various formulations that remove the top layers of skin to help reveal smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin as the area heals. This type of treatment can offer deep and superficial benefits depending on the service that is chosen. At our practice we offer chemical peels that specifically target wrinkled and sagging skin and can provide loose skin tightening while making your complexion appear more youthful.
Plasma Pen is an advanced skin tightening treatment that uses nitrogen plasma energy to create micro-injuries on the skin which your body heals, causing the skin to tighten. We can use it for sagging above and below the eyes as well as on various lines and wrinkles on the face.
If you are looking for skin tightening procedures that can resolve sagging and skin laxity on your face and other areas of the body, the options can be overwhelming.
