So many skin tightening devices, so little time! While having a choice is a good thing, it can be hard to figure out which skin tightening technology is best for your unique needs. This is where our expertise at Skin Care Institute can help!
To help you make your decision a bit easier, we’ve broken down the highlights of two leading skin tightening treatments on our menu, plus treatment tips for achieving your best results. (Keep in mind that this blog isn’t a substitute for a personal consultation; be sure to schedule yours as soon as you can before our schedule fills up!)
The down-low on Ultherapy®
How it works: Uses powerful ultrasound energy and precise imaging technology to locate optimal target areas and stimulate the skin’s natural healing response. A tightening effect is triggered deep within the foundational layer of muscles and tissues beneath the skin.
- Known for hitting the “pause button” on the aging process.
- Achieves gradual, natural-looking lifting/tightening effect for brow, face, neck or chest.
- Safe for every skin type.
- Can be performed year-round.
- One treatment is typically all that is needed, with periodic maintenance treatments to keep results going.
The down-low on SYLFIRM X RF microneedling
How it works: Uses dual-wave radiofrequency (RF) energy to safely heat skin while microneedles stimulate wound healing by creating tiny holes in skin. This combination of microneedling and RF heat create a synergistic boost of skin renewal, resulting in new collagen growth and tighter, smoother, brighter and younger-looking skin.
- Ideal for smoothing textural concerns including acne scars, stretch marks, lip lines, crow’s feet, crepey neck skin and more.
- Suitable for all areas of the body.
- Safe for every skin type.
- Can be administered year-round.
- Optimal results are typically seen with a series of treatments.
- Also targets pigmentation concerns like dark spots.
The bottom line: Both Ultherapy and SYLFIRM X RF microneedling are clinically proven and highly effective skin tightening technologies. Both treatments will show you noticeable improvements to your target areas.
The key to achieving your best results: Identify your precise goals. What are the improvements you would like to see? Based on your concerns, we can design a treatment regimen that meets your unique needs and goals. You may discover that a combination treatment with RF microneedling and Ultherapy is your best bet.
