If sagging skin is one of your biggest figure flaws, but you are not ready for skin tightening surgery like a tummy tuck, consider non-surgical alternatives like ThermiTight. ThermiTight is an innovative aesthetic procedure that can tighten and tone the skin from within. It is ideal for addressing problem areas of the face, neck, abdominal area, and even the thighs. Dr. Ortegon now offer ThermiTight. Customize a ThermiTight treatment plan that will address some of those flaws without the need of surgery.
How ThermiTight Works
ThermiTight works by delivering thermal energy deep into the layers of the skin to trigger skin shrinkage and tighten the skin. We will insert a tiny probe under the skin and then apply radio frequency energy directly to the target area to encourage shrinkage. Most patients see results right away and progressive results as the tissues rebuild and regenerate after treatment. This is a micro-invasive treatment that is performed under local anesthesia.
Patients enjoy results for several months and even years after a single treatment as the skin goes through its renewal process. The treatment itself can take up to two hours and is performed in our office. We will only need to make a very small incision to insert the radiofrequency fiber under the skin.
What Issues Can ThermiTight Address?
If you have some loose skin around the jowls, neck, midsection, or back, you may benefit from a ThermiTight treatment. Studies show that the ThermiRF tightens skin better than laser liposuction, and can even be combined with liposuction in the same session for enhanced results. Radiofrequency treatment is ideal for patients that want to achieve significant tightening of the skin in delicate areas such as the lower face and neck without undergoing surgery. In some cases, ThermiTight also offers fat melting benefits and can take care of some stubborn fatty deposits in smaller areas.
