Frequently Asked Questions

Am I a good candidate for the FaceTite procedure?

Ideal patients are in good general health and nonsmokers.

Generally speaking, anyone with loose or sagging skin is a good candidate for FaceTite, especially if skin laxity is mild to moderate and excess fat is minimal. FaceTite is effective on nearly all skin types and skin textures.

What areas of the face/body is FaceTite used to treat?

As the name suggests, FaceTite was designed to treat the jawline, neck, check, and jowls. However, FaceTite has proven successful in treating small areas of the body like the knees.

What should I expect during a FaceTite treatment?

FaceTite is performed with local anesthesia or light sedation, depending on the patient’s needs.

First, your provider will make tiny incisions where the internal portion of the FaceTite wand will be inserted.

During the procedure, radio-frequency (RF) energy flows from the internal cannula toward the external electrode on the skin’s surface.

The heat generated around the internal cannula coagulates blood vessels, melts fat, and stimulates healthy collagen production. RF energy on the surface tightens and rejuvenates the skin.

Power is regulated automatically via thermal controls and online measurement tools to ensure patient safety and best results.

What is recovery like after FaceTite?

FaceTite is an outpatient procedure, which means you can go home after treatment.

Following treatment, patients may experience some swelling and/or light bruising. Rejuvenated skin may feel numb at first, but this will fade.

Because FaceTite is a minimally invasive procedure, pain and discomfort in minimal.

Compared to a surgical facelift, recovery following a FaceTite procedure is much quicker—some patients resume daily activities soon after treatment.

Patients are typically advised to avoid strenuous activities for approximately two weeks. In general, patients can return to work in 7 to 10 days following treatment.

How long do the results of FaceTite last?

Results improve overtime for approximately 12 weeks following treatment; however, most patents will see noticeable improvements immediately.

FaceTite results are long-lasting but not quite as long as those achieved by a traditional facelift.

Patients can expect results to last up to five years.
