Sagging Skin / Laxity
Light treatments with certain wave lengths may be used to tighten sagging or lax skin of the forehead, eye pillars, cheeks, jowls, and neck areas by multiple treatments with no "down time." In many cases, this can be done successfully without a surgical "face lift" and the weeks of downtime/recuperation associated with that. This technique really creates a non-surgical facelift.
Individual treatments have proven to be highly successful for this problem. Individual treatments can be given over a lunch time, allowing the patient to return to work. Improvements occur gradually and cumulatively with each treatment so the changes are not suddenly obvious. Collagen stretches, loosens and lengthens with age. "Dermal thermescence" and "heat stacking" result in shortening of existing collagen fiber and new collagen production. The goal is to produce tightening of the cutaneous envelope of the face and neck, and results in a firmer facial and neck envelope.
Treatments can be carried out for the Brow-lift, Cheek-Jowl lift, Neck-lift, or all three, depending on the needs and desire of the patient. Additional vectors such as eye pillars can also be correct.
