Is Non-surgical Skin Tightening Painful?

Most of our patients report feeling a warming sensation during treatment, though there is no pain. Some individuals may experience tenderness after treatment, but this is typically short-lived and mild.

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

Most patients require only one treatment to achieve significant results. However, depending on the extent of their skin laxity, Dr. Zamani may recommend several treatments. These treatments yield cumulative results, and patients must wait a few weeks between treatments to allow their bodies to recover from the previous treatments.

How Long Until I See the Results?

Patients can see results right away. These continue to improve over the following months and even up to a year, providing a natural-looking uplift of the target areas as collagen production continues to rise.

Can I Combine Non-surgical Skin Tightening with Other Procedures?

Yes, you can. Our patients who have received non-surgical skin tightening in Beverly Hills have combined it with other non-surgical skin enhancement procedures, such as BOTOX, wrinkle relaxers, and dermal fillers. During the initial consultation, patients should share their ideas for combined procedures with Dr. Zamani so that she can incorporate them into her treatment plan.

What Are the Risks Associated with Non-surgical Skin Tightening?

While non-surgical skin tightening is a non-invasive procedure, it is essential to be aware of the potential risks associated with it. These may include redness, swelling, bruising, burns, dark spots, infection, changes in skin sensation, or even unsatisfactory results. If you experience any of these side effects or have any other concerns following your treatment, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Dr. Zamani’s practice. Our team is here to assist you promptly and ensure you receive the care and attention you deserve.

What is
Non-surgical Skin Tightening?

Non-surgical skin tightening is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that utilizes targeted energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. This process gradually improves skin tone and texture. Some of these non-surgical treatments can also affect fibrous tissue and help smooth cellulite. There are numerous FDA-cleared skin tightening treatments on the market, each with its unique technology and device. Here are a few:

Ultrasound skin tightening

Ultrasound energy heats below the skin’s surface at a more superficial depth, up to 5mm, to induce collagen production.

Radiofrequency (RF) energy

RF energy can also heat the skin and trigger collagen production. In contrast to ultrasound, RF focuses on epidermal layers a bit deeper to achieve a firmer, smoother appearance.

Combining IPL/RF treatments

A third class of skin tightening treatments combines intense pulsed light (IPL) with radiofrequency (RF) to heat even deeper layers of skin and induce the natural healing response, which in turn triggers collagen production. IPL energy helps treat a larger surface area of the skin and various skin conditions, whereas RF energy focuses on treating the deeper layers of the skin.

What’s the
first step?

The first step in achieving non-surgical skin tightening is to schedule an in-person consultation with Dr. Zamani, a double board-certified surgeon. During your consultation, Dr. Zamani will discuss your medical history, your skincare regimen, aesthetic goals, concerns, and expectations for the treatment. She will examine your target body area, assess your skin laxity, and identify potential treatment sites. She will outline the various techniques available, along with their associated risks, benefits, and recovery profiles, to help you determine the best match for your goals. Please bring any questions you might have and ideas for combined procedures to this initial consultation.

If you both agree to proceed, Dr. Zamani will design a treatment plan for you. You can then use this plan to schedule a session immediately after your consultation or at a time that suits you.

What to expect
on the Day of Non-surgical Skin Tightening Treatment

On the day of your non-surgical skin tightening treatment, Dr. Zamani and her staff will welcome you to the practice, settle you in the treatment room, and review your treatment plan. Once you are ready to proceed, Dr. Zamani will apply a topical numbing cream to minimize the sensation of heat from the device.

Dr. Zamani will then begin your treatment by placing the specific device over the target areas of loose or sagging skin. The device delivers focused energy to the deep skin layers, stimulating natural collagen production without harming surrounding tissues. When these tissues are heated, they contract slightly upon contact, triggering your body’s natural healing response and resulting in a gradual, noticeable improvement. After a specific time of exposure, Dr. Zamani will stop.

After the treatment, she might give you a cooling cream to soothe any redness.

Most non-surgical skin tightening sessions will take under an hour.

Non-surgical Skin Tightening
recovery

Because there are no needle pricks, incisions, or accompanying medications, non-surgical skin tightening has no recovery time. At most, patients may experience mild redness and some swelling or tenderness for one to two days after treatment.
