FaceTite

FaceTite is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to tighten and contour the face and neck.

FaceTite

FaceTite is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to tighten and contour the face and neck. It is a non-surgical alternative to traditional facelift surgery, and it can be used to treat sagging skin, wrinkles, and excess fat in the lower face and neck areas.

 

During a FaceTite procedure, a small cannula (thin tube) is inserted under the skin through tiny incisions. The cannula delivers radiofrequency energy to the treatment area, heating and tightening the skin and underlying tissues. The energy also helps to stimulate collagen production, which can further improve skin elasticity and firmness.

 

FaceTite is performed under local anesthesia or mild sedation, and it typically takes about an hour to complete. Most patients can return to work and normal activities within a few days, and there is minimal scarring and downtime associated with the procedure.

 

Compared to traditional facelift surgery, FaceTite is less invasive, has fewer risks and complications, and can produce natural-looking results.

The Ideal Candidate

Facetite is generally recommended for individuals who have mild to moderate skin laxity in the face and neck and who wish to achieve a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance without undergoing more invasive surgery. Good candidates for FaceTite typically have good overall health and skin quality, and are not excessively overweight.

 

It is important to note that FaceTite may not be appropriate for individuals with certain medical conditions or those who have unrealistic expectations about the results of the procedure.

Types and Techniques

There are several different techniques that can be used for a brow lift, including:

​

  1. Endoscopic brow lift: This minimally invasive technique involves making small incisions in the scalp and inserting a tiny camera and surgical instruments to lift the forehead and eyebrows.

  2. Open brow lift: This technique involves making a long incision across the forehead, typically just behind the hairline, to lift the forehead and eyebrows.

  3. Temporal brow lift: This technique involves making small incisions at the temples to lift the outer portion of the eyebrows.

  4. Direct brow lift: This technique involves making an incision directly above the eyebrow to lift the brow.

  5. Mid-forehead brow lift: This technique involves making an incision in the middle of the forehead to lift the brows and smooth out wrinkles.

​

The choice of technique will depend on several factors, including the patient's individual anatomy and the extent of the brow sagging.

Downtime

One of the advantages of Facetite is that it typically involves minimal downtime compared to more invasive surgical procedures. Most patients can resume their normal daily activities within a few days after the procedure, although there may be some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated areas.

 

Depending on the extent of the treatment, patients may need to wear a compression garment for a few days to help minimize swelling and promote healing. Patients should also avoid strenuous exercise and activities that may increase blood flow to the treated area for several days after the procedure.

Combination Treatments

BodyTite combined with Liposuction

BodyTite can be combined with liposuction to achieve more comprehensive and effective results. Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat from the body, while BodyTite uses radiofrequency energy to tighten and contour the skin.

 

When these two procedures are combined, the liposuction removes the excess fat from the targeted area, and the BodyTite treatment helps to tighten and contour the skin in that area, providing a more toned and sculpted appearance.

 

Combining BodyTite with liposuction can provide more dramatic results than either treatment alone. However, it is important to discuss your goals and expectations with your practitioner and to ensure that the combination of treatments is safe and appropriate for your individual needs.

The recovery time after a combination of BodyTite and liposuction will depend on the extent of the treatment and the individual's healing process. Generally, patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated area for the first few days after the procedure. 

 

BodyTite combined with Morpheus8 Body 

BodyTite can be combined with Morpheus8 body treatments to further enhance the results. Morpheus8 is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses radiofrequency energy and microneedling to improve the texture and appearance of the skin.

 

When combined with BodyTite, Morpheus8 can help to further tighten and contour the skin in the treated area, providing a more sculpted and toned appearance.

 

The combination of BodyTite and Morpheus8 can be particularly effective for individuals who have both excess fat and loose skin in the treated area. BodyTite removes the excess fat, while Morpheus8 helps to tighten and smooth the skin, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

 

BodyTite with both Liposuction and Morpheus 8 

BodyTite can be combined with liposuction and Morpheus8 to provide a more comprehensive and effective body contouring solution.

 

Liposuction can remove excess fat from the treated area, BodyTite can tighten and contour the skin, and Morpheus8 can improve skin texture and further tighten the skin.

 

When these three treatments are combined, they can address multiple concerns and provide a more dramatic transformation in the treated area.

Alternative Treatments

There are several alternative treatments that can be used to address skin laxity and other signs of aging in the face and neck. These include:

​

  1. Surgical facelift: A surgical facelift is a more invasive procedure that involves removing excess skin and tightening the underlying tissue and muscles to create a more youthful appearance. Recovery time is longer, but the results can be more dramatic and longer-lasting than with non-surgical options.

  2. Dermal fillers: Injectable dermal fillers, such as hyaluronic acid, can be used to restore volume to areas of the face that have lost elasticity, helping to smooth wrinkles and improve the overall appearance of the skin.

  3. Botox: Botox is a neuromodulator that is used to relax the muscles responsible for wrinkles and fine lines, particularly in the forehead and around the eyes.

  4. Fotona 4D facelift is a non-invasive, four-dimensional facelift procedure that uses laser technology to address the signs of aging in the face and neck. The procedure combines four different laser treatments to provide a comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation

  5. Sculptra is a type of injectable dermal filler that is used to stimulate collagen production and restore volume to the face. The filler is composed of a biocompatible and biodegradable substance called poly-L-lactic acid, which is gradually absorbed by the body and stimulates collagen production in the skin.

  6. Facial fat grafting, also known as fat transfer or autologous fat transplantation, is a cosmetic procedure that involves removing fat from one area of the body, such as the abdomen or thighs, and injecting it into the face to restore volume, improve contour, and rejuvenate the appearance.
