Skin Tightening Q & A
How does the aging process affect my skin?
Your skin is incredibly tough, but it isn’t invincible. Over the years, your body produces less collagen and elastin. These two proteins are responsible for giving your skin a healthy, vibrant, and youthful appearance. Although a lack of collagen and elastin is completely normal, it leads to noticeable imperfections, including wrinkles, fine lines, folds, and sagging skin.
If you’re experiencing these or other age-related skin problems, you might think your only treatment option is a time-consuming or invasive cosmetic surgery. However, that’s far from the case. Thanks to modern skin-tightening treatments, it’s possible to turn back time without incisions, sutures, or stitches.
How long do the results of skin-tightening treatment last?
The results of skin-tightening treatment depend on your goals and the conditions treated. However, most people achieve youthful, vibrant results that last for 1-2 years. You’ll know it’s time to schedule a follow-up appointment at Skin & Aesthetic Surgery of Manhattan when wrinkles and fine lines start reappearing across the surface of your face.
Will I need more than one skin-tightening treatment?
Many skin-tightening treatments require multiple appointments spaced several weeks or months apart. However, such treatments are unique in that they provide results in just one session. Additionally, your results will continue to improve over time.
What is the recovery process like following skin-tightening treatment?
After your skin-tightening appointment is over, you can return to normal activities right away. The treatment is so quick and effective, many people visit Skin & Aesthetic Surgery of Manhattan on their lunch break. Following your appointment, make sure to take good care of your skin, and apply a high-SPF sunscreen when you go outside.
