Skin tightening

As we age, our skin becomes drier and looser than it once was which can lead to our bodies and faces looking a little softer than we might like. Sagging skin is particularly a problem around the jaw, where it can lead to the appearance of jowls that make us look older than we really are. Laser skin tightening is an effective, long-term procedure that can help to address this issue.

Laser skin tightening is a minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment that uses infrared light to heat the collagen under the surface of the skin so that it contracts and tightens. As a result, the overlying skin also becomes much firmer and tighter than before, giving better contours, increased definition and a more youthful appearance. Although some improvement in your appearance will be obvious immediately, skin laxity in the treated area will continue to improve for up to six months.

Laser skin tightening procedures are usually performed under local anesthetic, making them painless without any downtime. You may, however, experience slight swelling or redness, but you should be able to return to your usual activities virtually immediately.
