Introduction to FaceTite
With all of the options that are available for rejuvenation treatment, it’s difficult to decide what could be best for you. Not every patient is ready to experience the time and cost of plastic surgery, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be comfortable and happy in their skin. The wonderful news is that thanks to technology, you don’t have to be left out or left worrying about making a life-changing decision.
At the Nikolov Center for Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, Dr. Nicholas Nikolov strives to provide his patients with the best results with the revolutionary procedure known as FaceTite. This minimally invasive treatment can take years off your face and has a quick recovery time. Below, we’ve included our guide to getting FaceTite in Beverly Hills with esteemed plastic surgeon, Dr. Nicholas Nikolov.
What is FaceTite?
FaceTite is a minimally invasive procedure that uses advanced radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) to melt fat and tighten skin. This procedure produces dramatic improvement in skin laxity on the face and neck. With this type of technology, you can achieve results that were previously attainable only through surgery. FaceTite will give you the most tightening without removing the skin, it’s safe and there are no concerns of nerve injury, unlike other energy modalities. It can tighten areas that even a face and neck lift has trouble addressing.
FaceTite is great for anyone who is looking to dramatically improve the laxity of the skin on their face and neck. Results from FaceTite were previously only attained from an invasive face or neck lift, which also resulted in unsightly scars. If you are looking to treat deep lines, loose skin, or lose that double chin and improve the jowl line, FaceTite is the procedure for you.
What are the Benefits of FaceTite?
FaceTite is a revolutionary way to create a smoother, slimmer, more attractive facial appearance. In addition to this, many of our Beverly Hills patients have enjoyed the following benefits from this treatment:
- Capable of treating hard-to-reach areas, such as nasolabial folds and malar bags
- Easily combined with other skin tightening procedures
- Long-lasting results with a single treatment
- Minimal downtime
- Non-surgical
- Scarring-free
- Stimulates the body’s natural production of collagen
- Tightens loose skin
- Works on almost all skin types
What’s the First Step?
The first step in getting FaceTite in Beverly Hills is to contact the Nikolov Center for Plastic Surgery and schedule your consultation. During this appointment, you will meet with your technician who will ask you a series of questions regarding your medical history to prevent any potential risks during your treatment or recovery. You will be able to express your desires from the procedure and ask any questions you may have. Your technician will then examine the area you’re interested in treating and create a treatment plan for you. If you agree with this plan, then you will meet with our Patient Coordinator and schedule your treatment date.
Who are the Best Candidates for a FaceTite?
The best candidates for FaceTite in Beverly Hills are those in their late 30s to early 50s with:
- Loss of jawline and neck definition
- Mild to moderate signs of facial aging (i.e. sagging skin of the face and neck)
- Unwanted fat deposits in the jowls and underneath the chin
- Are not interested in repeating a major surgery with a general anesthetic
- Have already undergone a face and neck lift, but redeveloped face and neck laxity over the years
- Uncomfortable with invasive surgical procedures that require extensive incisions and general anesthesia
What to Expect on the Day of FaceTite
When you begin your FaceTite treatment, you will make yourself comfortable in our relaxed office setting and be placed under local anesthesia for a more comfortable treatment. A very small access point will be made in a targeted area of your skin with a medium-sized needle. A slender probe is then inserted, which will glide just below the skin into the subcutaneous tissue where the fat and collagen reside. Then, through a process called Radiofrequency-Assisted Lipolysis (RFAL), RF energy is delivered between the probe and an external electrode, safely heating the fat and soft tissue which stimulates the collagen and induces fat cell death.
FaceTite can help treat the following areas:
- Cheeks
- Jowls
- Nasolabial folds (lines around the nose and mouth; laugh lines)
- Neck
- Periorbital region (around the eyes; brows, eyelids)
- Submental region (under chin)
FaceTite Recovery
After you are done with your procedure, the technician will apply compression garments that you will need to wear home and will help to ensure that your skin heals and tightens as it should. You will be able to return home the same day, but we would advise having a family member or friend drive you as you will probably experience some swelling and bruising that could impede your vision.
You should try to relax during the first day or so after your treatment, with most patients able to return to work after 2 days. As you recover, you will notice that you have smoother skin after a few days but will be able to enjoy the full results within a few months.
