As you get older, your body makes less collagen and elastin, affecting the firmness of your skin.
What Is Non-Surgical Skin Tightening?
As the skin loses collagen, it stretches and sags. Gravity, weight gain/loss and other factors can contribute to looser skin. While plastic surgery can remove and tighten skin with lift procedures (arm, face, neck, thigh, etc.), there are non-surgical ways to induce higher levels of collagen to restore firmer skin. These treatments use various types of thermal energy to stimulate collagen production. At pēkomd®, we have a state-of-the-art rejuvenation center with multiple non-surgical skin tightening treatments. These include devices that use microneedling, radiofrequency, plasma, laser and other energy sources to trigger a collagen response in the targeted skin and tissue. These treatments can be used to tighten and define the jawline, neck or face, as well as remodel tissue on the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, arms and other areas. Our skin and tissue tightening treatments vary in downtime and recovery, but most have minimal downtime required.
