Titan Skin Tightening Procedures – What to Expect


Advertisement

Body contouring procedures and facelifts are both ways to firm up and tighten the skin, and can help combat the signs of aging to create a more youthful appearance. Pregnancy, weight loss and even hormonal changes linked to aging can reduce skin elasticity, leaving you with unattractive skin folds and loose skin that can be difficult to hide.   

The Titan laser is a non-invasive solution for treating loose skin and  offers several benefits; the procedure helps stimulate collagen production and can increase the firmness of the skin a few months after treatment. If you’re looking for a simple way to improve skin tone and texture, here’s what you can expect from your Titan treatment:  

How the Titan Procedure Works  

The Titan laser can firm up loose skin that is a result of weight loss, aging or pregnancy; the procedure encourages collagen growth to enhance the skin’s texture and tone for the long-term, and Titan laser therapy can be combined with other facial rejuvenation treatments for a complete body or facial makeover. According to Dr. Eric Berger, a plastic surgeon in New York City, the Titan procedure stimulates the skin fibers enough to completely restructure the skin’s layer (Source:  RealSelf.com). The Titan laser could be one of the most effective ways to dramatically change the skin’s appearance, reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and other signs of aging.  

The Titan laser uses infrared technology to penetrate the skin and heat up the dermis; this ‘burning’ stimulates collagen production and boosts the texture of the skin after just a few weeks. The result is visibly stronger, more resilient and firmer skin. 

Key Benefits of the Titan Skin Tightening Procedure  

No downtime – you can be in and out of the cosmetic surgeon’s office without needing extra rest and recovery time. The Titan procedure is one of the few non-invasive treatments that won’t cause exceptional discomfort, and you can return to your regular schedule with ease.  

Resilient and health-looking skin - since collagen production slows down with aging, the Titan laser can be especially valuable for treating wrinkles and areas of the face that have lost their resilience.  

Versatile procedure - the Titan laser may be used to firm up skin around the abdomen, around the knees, and even along the jaw line; it’s a valuable alternative to a surgical facelift to combat the signs of aging.  

Visible results within weeks – most people can see results within a few weeks after treatment, but the typical range is 3 – 6 months after treatment.   

Reduced risk of injured fat – The Titan procedure isn’t the only option available for laser therapy that reaches deep within the dermis; however, because this laser emits heat evenly over the treatment area, this reduces the risk of injuring fatty tissue that results in dimpling and an uneven skin surface.  

Minimal discomfort – unlike liposuction and surgical skin-tightening procedures, the Titan laser does not cause an excessive amount of pain or discomfort either during, or after the procedure.   

Stimulates collagen production for the long-term – the Titan procedure stimulates collagen production for weeks and months after the treatment is complete; ongoing collagen production is the basis for healthy, youthful skin so you can enjoy results for the long-term.  

If you’re looking for an effective skin tightening treatment, the Titan laser may be your best choice for achieving younger-looking, firmer and smoother skin after just one treatment. The Titan laser treatment can be combined with other non-invasive treatments such as BOTOX and photo rejuvenation for enhanced results.
