Frequently Asked Questions
Q: WHO IS AN IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR SKIN TIGHTENING?
A: Anyone showing the signs of loose, sagging skin around the neck, face, and other parts of the body may be an excellent candidate for skin tightening. Loose skin that hangs from your triceps, the “waddle” under your chin, the skin around your knees and thighs, and even loose skin around your abdomen can all be treated with skin tightening procedures.
Q: HOW DO I PREPARE FOR SKIN TIGHTENING?
A: Preparation for skin tightening is different with each treatment. Patients are provided detailed instructions to prepare for each procedure during a consultation with Dr. Kian. With skin tightening treatments, since they are not typically invasive, there is not much preparation for them.
Q: What SHOULD I expect from my SKIN TIGHTENING treatment?
A: Each skin tightening treatment follows a different treatment process. Skin tightening is designed to promote collagen production so that the skin can get firmer, tighter, and smoother.
Q: HOW LONG DOES A SKIN TIGHTENING PROCEDURE TAKE?
A: Each skin tightening treatment is different when it comes to the time it takes to complete the treatment. Most are completed within an hour or less.
Q: WHEN WILL I SEE THE RESULTS?
A: Some of the results from skin tightening are noticeable immediately following the treatment; however, it takes a few months for the full results to be visible. The treatments increase collagen production to add firmness, which takes several weeks to a few months to complete.
Q: WHAT IS THE COST OF SKIN TIGHTENING?
A: The cost of skin tightening varies with each treatment as it depends on the treatment, what area of the body is being treated, and if the selected treatment is combined with other cosmetic treatments.
