Laser Skin Tightening & Flushing
Laser Skin Tightening
After the age of 30, we lose about 1% of collagen fibers throughout our body per year. The deeper layers of our skin (dermis) are composed of 75% collagen. It is this integral structural component that gives the skin its youthful resiliency and elasticity. Unfortunately, as we age, our skin stops producing new collagen and we end up with saggy, wrinkled, and ageing skin.
Our Laser Skin Tightening treatments are safe, non-invasive procedures that will help you attain tight, smoother skin. The procedure targets collagen fibers found in the deeper dermal compartments of the skin, triggering new collagen formation and improving facial contours. Candela YAG Laser is a revolutionary device that will smooth out fine wrinkles and plump up and sculpt sagging and lax skin.
Benefits of Skin Tightening
- Increase the collagen production
- Skin Rejuvenation
- Tighter & toned skin (face, neck decolletage or tummy)
- Slowing down ageing process
- Reduce fine line & wrinkles
Collagen is a water laden protein fibre. The Candela YAG Laser works through a process known as ‘selective photo thermolysis’ that heats up the water in the collagen fibre at specific temperatures and utilizes focused wavelengths to naturally induce new collagen formation (also known as collagenases). This gentle yet focused heating will slowly rearrange, redistribute, and realign new collagen fibres within the dermis of the skin, resulting in facial contouring and rejuvenation.
The procedure can be performed on the face or any other part of the body such as the décolletage, hands and abdomen. The usual protocol is a treatment plan of 2-3 months, where a total of 6-8 sessions required to achieve optimal benefit. Treatments can be done at weekly or fortnightly intervals. Best results are achieved by alternating chemical peel, Yellow LED and pre- Microdermabrasion treatments.
