How many SkinTyte II™ treatments will I need?
The number of treatments needed will vary from patient to patient and your physician will personalize a treatment plan based on the level of improvement you desire. Your physician may also combine your treatment with other popular aesthetic procedures to further personalize your treatment. Typical patients need 4 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart, but most patients will see results of tightening right after the first treatment, but results can take up to 3-4 treatments to see.
What will happen during the SkinTyte II™ procedure?
Your eyes will be protected with safety shields or glasses. You will feel a warming sensation as the light is absorbed by the targeted areas. You will be asked to tell your provider when the warming sensation becomes intolerable by raising your hand or using a verbal signal. At that point, the provider will immediately stop the procedure and check the tempurature of the skin to see if it has reached 40 degrees Celcius - which is the tempurature needed to stimulate collagen regrowth. Your procedure may take a few minutes to half an hour depending on the size of the area to be treated and the type of procedure performed. Your certified laser specialist will discuss all of your options with you.
Will the SkinTyte II™ be uncomfortable?
The procedure is gentle, noninvasive and safe. The Sciton SkinTyte II™ procedure has minimal discomfort associated with it.
Your provider may give you further instructions specific to you.
