Fight The Aging Process
As we age, our skin naturally loses collagen which can increase the appearance of pores, wrinkles, and sagging skin. Some of what AccuTite/FaceTite treatment does is stimulate collagen so that your skin looks smoother and toned. FaceTite treatment and AccuTite target sagging skin, wrinkles, and fat primarily on the lower half of the face and neck. The only difference between AccuTite and FaceTite treatment is the size of the probe. AccuTite is used to treat smaller areas, i.e., lower eyes, nasolabial folds, etc.
FaceTite and AccuTite
AccuTite and FaceTite treatments are minimally invasive and combine both fat reduction and skin tightening techniques to help contour the face and neck and some small areas of the body for a more toned, youthful appearance. FaceTite/AccuTite usually requires 1 – 3 incisions and utilizes radiofrequency assisted liposuction (RFAL) to create fairly significant anti-aging results. Individual results will vary.
A FaceTite/AccuTite procedure is one alternative to a traditional facelift and one to consider if you don’t want to undergo a full facelift. It is performed in an office setting in a few hours. Major side effects are rare. It is a safe technology. However, you can still expect swelling, bruising, and discomfort after the procedure. You’ll go home the same day and many return to work after a couple of days.
The Procedure
During the FaceTite Treatment, we will apply local anesthesia to the treatment area and make a small incision. We will then insert a small probe to deliver radiofrequency waves that liquefy fat cells. While radiofrequency waves are emitted, a separate tube suctions out the liquefied fat. The radiofrequency will stimulate collagen and tighten the skin. Once the procedure is complete, the doctor will apply compression garments that you will wear home. You will wear these continually for two days and then at night only for the next two weeks. You will be given medication before the procedure begins that will make you sleepy. You will need someone to drive you home.
Results from FaceTite/AccuTite aren’t seen for many months. We will ask you to come back in for photos in six months. Only one treatment at a time is required. AccuTite/FaceTite treatment is designed to last several years.
