SkinTyte (Skin Tightening)
Sciton SkinTyte Treatment
What is SkinTyte?
The SkinTyte treatment is based on the principle of selective thermolysis and utilizes Sciton’s BBLTM pulsed
light technology to deeply heat your skin while cooling and protecting the entire treated surface. SkinTyte
can be provided quickly and comfortably with no downtime. The end result is a more youthful appearance.
How does SkinTyte work?
The SkinTyte procedure utilizes a broadband of light energy to deeply heat dermal collagen. This process
promotes partial denaturation and contraction of collagen. The heat also initiates the body’s natural healing
process which creates a renewed collagen foundation leading to increased skin firmness. Powerful cooling
maintains the outer surface of your skin at a cool temperature before, during, and after each pulse providing
the patient a comfortable and safe procedure.
What is the treatment like?
The SkinTyte light energy is delivered in a sequence of rapid, gentle pulses. There is no need for a topical anesthetic, however, your physician may choose to use one on more sensitive areas. A series of pulses will be repeated over the treatment area to ensure best results. While the face and neck can typically be treated within 30 minutes, actual time will depend on the area treated.
What should I expect after treatment?
You may experience some mild redness in the treated area immediately after and this should return to normal within minutes. Since the SkinTyte procedure is non-invasive there is no downtime so you can resume regular activities immediately following treatment. You can also apply makeup and sunscreen after each session.
What results should I expect?
The SkinTyte procedure is recommended for patients who desire moderate, noticeable skin improvement without having to undergo surgery. Full results often take up to four months as the collagen foundation of your skin is rebuilt and strengthened.
What areas can be treated?
SkinTyte treatments are safe for all skin types and can be performed on any area of the body where an improvement in your skin firmness is desired. Popular areas include the face, neck, abdomen, and arms. You should consult with your physician regarding the treatment options that are best for you.
