A More Sculpted Facial Appearance Is Within Reach

If you're interested in cosmetic procedures, you may have heard of FaceTite. This minimally invasive treatment can help tighten and lift the skin on your face and neck. FaceTite can target various facial and neck areas, including jowls, chin, and neck. It's a popular choice for those who want to achieve a more sculpted, youthful appearance without the risks and recovery time associated with surgery. Arroyo Plastic Surgery proudly offers this cutting-edge solution to our discerning patients.

What is FaceTite?

FaceTite RFAL stands for Radio-Frequency Assisted Lipolysis. This treatment uses radiofrequency energy to heat the tissues beneath the skin. This causes the tissues to contract, which can help to tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and sagging.

The procedure involves inserting a small cannula beneath the skin. This cannula has a radiofrequency electrode, which emits energy to heat the tissues. Because the procedure is performed under local anesthesia, you'll be awake without pain.

FaceTite Benefits

FaceTite has several benefits over other types of skin tightening procedures. For example:

  • Minimally invasive: Unlike a facelift, which involves significant incisions and downtime, FaceTite is minimally invasive. This means that you'll experience less discomfort and a shorter recovery time.
  • Customizable: FaceTite can be customized to your specific needs. The procedure can be performed on different areas of the face and neck, and the intensity of the radiofrequency energy can be adjusted to achieve the desired results.
  • Long-lasting: The results of FaceTite can last for several years. This means you won't need repeated treatments to maintain your results.

Am I a Good Candidate for FaceTite?

Here are some factors that can make you a good candidate for FaceTite:

  • You have mild to moderate skin laxity: FaceTite is most effective for people with mild to moderate skin laxity, which means that your skin is starting to sag but has not yet reached the point of significant drooping or jowling.
  • You are in good overall health: As with any medical procedure, it is important to be healthy before undergoing FaceTite. This means you should be free from severe medical conditions and not take any medications that could interfere with the procedure.
  • You are willing to follow post-treatment instructions: Following your FaceTite procedure, you must take specific steps to ensure your skin heals properly. This may include avoiding certain activities or using special skincare products.
  • You have good skin quality: FaceTite works best on healthy skin with good elasticity. If your skin is damaged or has poor quality, you may not be a good candidate for this procedure.

FaceTite: Before, During, and After

Consultation

Before the FaceTite procedure, you’ll consult with Dr. Arroyo and the team at Arroyo Plastic Surgery.

We’ll determine if you are a good candidate for the treatment and discuss your medical history and any medications you are taking. We’ll also evaluate the areas you want to treat and determine the best approach for your needs.

Procedure

On the day of the procedure, you will be given local anesthesia to numb the treatment area. You will also be given medication to help you relax if needed.

We’ll make small incisions in the treatment area and insert a small probe that emits radiofrequency energy. The energy heats the underlying tissue, causing it to contract and tighten. At the same time, the energy stimulates collagen production, which helps to improve skin elasticity further. We will carefully monitor the skin's temperature during your treatment to ensure it remains safe. The procedure typically takes 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the treatment area.

Aftercare

After the FaceTite procedure, you may experience swelling and bruising in the treatment area. Keep the following in mind:

  • You can resume normal activities within a few days
  • You may need to wear a compression garment to help reduce swelling and support the treated area
  • Following our instructions for aftercare is essential, which may include avoiding certain activities and taking medication to manage any discomfort
  • Avoid exposing the treated area to direct sunlight and wear sunscreen when going outside
