Advantages of FaceTite

The signs of age often appear first on our faces, necks and jawlines. These areas are prone to the type of wrinkling and sagging that can be very disappointing as you age. With FaceTite, Dr. Jessica West can turn back the hands of time by tightening skin of the face and neck, and reducing excess fat of the neck.

What is FaceTite?

FaceTite is a minimally invasive way to lift, smooth and rejuvenate the face, neck and jawline. Like BodyTite, FaceTite is a handheld device emitting radiofrequency energy to tighten skin and melt unwanted fat. Advantages of FaceTite is ideal for treating:

  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Jowls
  • Jawline
  • Sagging, inelastic skin
  • Excess neck fat

The treatment takes about an hour after the numbing process is complete. Results are seen from a single treatment session. The results will continue to improve over 4-6 months as skin tightens and new collagen is produced.

Reasons to Consider FaceTite

FaceTite has many advantages, the power of which we have witnessed first-hand. These benefits include:

  • Non-surgical
  • Easy recovery
  • No scars
  • No general anesthesia required
  • No visit to the hospital or overnight stay
  • Minimal downtime

FaceTite treatment is completed in our comfortable, state-of-the-art cosmetic surgery office. The entire process requires only local anesthetic, so you will be numb but you will not have any of the risks or after effects associated with deeper sedation or general anesthesia.

While a surgical procedure like a facelift and neck lift provides more extensive tissue remodeling and excess tissue removal, some people are simply not ready to undergo surgery. FaceTite provides a minimally invasive option with effective results, but less risk and recovery. Some people prefer to go the non-surgical route now, while knowing they may choose a facelift in the future. Whatever your reason for seeking a minimally invasive solution, we understand it is the preference of many of our patients. FaceTite is an effective, lasting alternative. As long as you take care of your skin (wear sunblock, eat healthy and don’t smoke), you should continue to see a good result from this treatment for several years.
