Laser
Skin Tightening Training
 Laser skin tightening treatments are revolutionary in the non-invasive surgical world. Procedures that reduce the visible signs of aging as well as reduce acne, acne scarring and the redness caused by Rosacea, have become very popular due to this cutting edge technology. These quick, simple and often painless procedures have caused millions to take a new look at life.
In most procedures, the laser used penetrates the deeper layers of skin, in order to stimulate collagen growth, which leads to softer, wrinkle free skin. There are several different types of skin tightening procedures, but only two that utilize laser/radiofrequency technology; these procedures are Photo Facial and Thermage. Each is done a little differently, and each provides different results. They both, however, have one thing in common; they provide the patient with smoother, younger, healthier looking skin.
Photo Facial
Photo Facial is one of the most advanced non-invasive cosmetic technological procedures used for improving the appearance of Rosacea, reducing redness and broken capillaries, repairing sun damaged skin, skin texture and age spots. This non-evasive, non-surgical technique allows patients to see visible results after just one treatment and dramatic results after five.
Photo Facials utilize pulsed light technology, which is somewhat similar to laser technology but differs slightly. When a laser is used, it uses one continuous light wavelength which is penetrated into the deeper tissue layers of the skin, Pulsed Light uses multiple wavelengths of light, which, when delivered into the skin, are energy concentrated at all different tissue levels. This allows the light to be absorbed by the melanin in the skin therefore encouraging the production of collagen.
As we age, our bodies produce less collagen. When the gentle pulses of light are directed into the skin, the heat causes damage to the vessels triggering the body to begin its natural healing process. When the skin is cut or bruised, the body produces collagen in order to heal. This procedure causes the body to naturally produce more collagen in order to heal the skin. This treatment can lead to a more even tone and overall smoothness of the skin, which leads to a more youthful appearance. It also restores sun damaged skin and aids in the reduction of wrinkles and fine lines, as well as redness that is sometimes related to Rosacea.
Thermage
Thermage is an innovative, non-invasive procedure that requires no down-time and results in tighter skin, improved facial contours and healthier collagen. This technique was developed as a means to tighten skin without surgery. The Thermage procedure utilizes radiofrequency technology. This technology is so revolutionary it tightens your skin and enhances the contours of your face by reshaping your skin's innermost structures.
The Thermage procedure uses a radiofrequency device called the ThermaCool TC in order to create a controlled section of heating in the dermis and the deeper tissue of the face. During the treatment, radio frequencies produce heat in the tissues of the lower layers of skin. Because Thermage works in the dermal layers of skin, no damage is done to the epidermis. For extra protection, the epidermis is constantly cooled by a cryogen spray in order to protect the outer layers of skin. Heating the collagen to specific temperatures creates a natural biological reaction that causes the collagen to contract and thicken. The results are a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles as well as more pronounced facial contours.
In addition to the initial thickening of collagen, the body responds in another way to the heating of the deeper tissue in the face. When the body is wounded, its natural response is to heal the wound by creating new collagen. In the case of Thermage, this creation of new collagen works with the immediate tightening of the skin and adds on long term effects.
Results
Many people find themselves looking in the mirror and wondering when exactly the transformation in their appearance took place. We all fight the signs of aging but, like many things in life, they are inevitable. These procedures offer a great alternative to plastic surgery. They provide younger, healthier skin that is rejuvenating and completely natural looking. Laser skin tightening, when compared to plastic surgery, is very affordable, and involves a lot less risk and a lot less down-time. Non-invasive procedures are quick and easy and can give you amazing results.
