At the Center for Dermatology and Aesthetic Medicine, we offer SkinTyte, a non-surgical pulsed light treatment done to tighten skin. If you wish to tighten and firm your skin without taking a significant amount of time off to recover, SkinTyte may be for you.
How Does SkinTyte II™ Work?
SkinTyte II™ is a non-invasive light energy treatment to tighten the skin, reducing wrinkles and firming tissues. By utilizing broadband light, SkinTyte II™ heats dermal collagen, contracting the collagen, and stimulating the body’s natural healing process. The most common areas treated are the face, neck, and chest, though SkinTyte II™ can also be used to treat the abdomen, hips, upper arms, and hands.

What to Expect with SkinTyte II™
Prior to your treatment, patients must remove any facial makeup, as well as creams. Men will be asked to shave any facial hair prior to arrival. Treatment begins with special eye goggles being placed around a patient’s eyes. A soothing gel can be applied to the skin to ensure a comfortable treatment session. A series of gentle pulsed light treatments will then be done. Treatments take about 30 minutes per area.
SkinTyte II™ Results
Following a SkinTyte II™ treatment, most patients feel that their skin looks and feels tighter, however, optimal results will often appear over a three to six-month period. Most patients require three to five sessions spaced approximately one month apart. Patients may experience mild swelling for the first day, though icing can help to bring down swelling and reduce discomfort. There is no downtime associated with SkinTyte II™, so patients can return to their everyday routine as soon as they feel comfortable.
