FaceTite
The instant minimally invasive surgical face and neck lift
FaceTite™ is the ideal solution for those looking to lift and tighten sagging skin in the face, especially the cheeks and jowls, to regain a youthful jawline contour and tighten the loose folds of skin in the neck.
Both men and women can benefit from this ‘game changing’ technology. No longer do you need to take the risks or put up with the months of recovery following a surgical facelift procedure.
Safe and effective
FaceTite™ is a minimally invasive procedure, which is undertaken using only local anesthesia, usually in under one hour. It utilises the power of radio frequency energy to heat underneath the skin, resulting in contraction and tightening of the skin above.
This is a very safe yet effective treatment, as the heating is done precisely using a very fine cannula probe to deliver the energy precisely to the treatment area under the skin, where the temperature is continually monitored to make sure that only the correct amount of energy is delivered.
Once the desired cut-off temperature is achieved, which is known to cause maximum contraction of the skin, the energy is switched off. The mini-heating probe is inserted under the skin through small puncture holes which heal very quickly following the procedure.
The precise and controlled heating of the skin with FaceTite™ can give results similar to a mini face or neck lift, but without the need for large incisions and scars to deal with. The tightening and lifting is seen immediately following FaceTite™, but continues to improve over the next 3-4 months and up to a year following the procedure.
Especially good results are seen when fat is removed from under the jawline and jowls, if needed, by combining a mini liposuction procedure at the same time as FaceTite™ in those that need it. In patients with thinning skin and lots of lines and wrinkles or scarring from acne we often combine FaceTite™ with Fractora™, which is fractional resurfacing of the skin which can give impressive results.
FaceTite is suitable for the so called “gap “patient who is not yet ready for a full face lift but at the same time injectables like anti-ageing injectables and fillers are not giving them the results they want. So this treatment fulfils that transition gap between injectables and surgery.
