Loose skin is one of the most common signs of aging. This laxity comes from a natural loss of collagen and elastin. When these essential structural proteins decline, our skin is slower to remodel and loses elasticity. Fortunately, there are a few nonsurgical ways to combat mild skin sagging.
At The Stern Center for Aesthetics, Dr. Fredric Stern and his team of skilled providers utilize the most advanced noninvasive skin tightening solutions to help patients look their absolute best. If you’re ready to revitalize your appearance, read on to learn more or call 425-455-9100 to book an appointment in Bellevue, Washington.
Increase Elasticity With SkinTyte II Treatments
The SkinTyte IIâ„¢ by Sciton® tackles everything from a soft abdomen to sagging jowls. The device uses infrared light to deeply heat the dermis, increasing collagen and elastin production to tighten and firm your skin.Â
Patients usually need five sessions about a month apart to see their desired results. Fortunately, the process is painless, with most patients describing a deep warming sensation. There’s also no downtime associated with SkinTyte II treatments, so you can typically return to your normal activities immediately.Â
This noninvasive skin tightening treatment works best on early signs of aging and mild skin sagging. Dr. Stern can give you a better idea of your expected results during your consultation.
Tone and Tighten With Virtue RF MicroneedlingÂ
VirtueRF from Cartessa™ is a highly customizable treatment thanks to multiple device settings, attachments, and depths. Virtue RF doesn’t just increase collagen and elastin in the dermis with radiofrequency (RF) energy. The combination of microneedling works wonders for skin texture issues too. If you have acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, cellulite, or stretch marks in addition to mild skin laxity, VirtueRF treatments could be a perfect fit for you.
We typically recommend multiple appointments to see maximum skin tightening and smoothing benefits, but VirtueRF doesn’t have any downtime. This treatment won’t address more severe skin sagging or advanced signs of aging like a blepharoplasty or S-Lift procedure would. However, it’s highly effective for patients who want to refresh their appearance but aren’t ready for surgery.
