FaceTite™ is a minimally invasive facial contouring procedure that aims to tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of sagging or loose skin on the face and neck. The procedure uses radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) technology to deliver targeted energy underneath the skin. The device consists of a cannula, which is inserted under the skin, and an external electrode that stays on the skin’s surface. When activated, the FaceTite™ device heats the tissue to stimulate collagen production and contract the skin, which in turn leads to a tighter and more youthful appearance.

The procedure is often touted as an alternative to more invasive options, such as facelifts, and usually involves less downtime and fewer side effects. However, the results may not be as dramatic as those obtained through surgical methods. Patients may experience some swelling, redness, or bruising after the procedure, but these side effects are generally temporary.

Always consult with a qualified medical professional to determine if FaceTite™ or any other aesthetic procedure is appropriate for you. Keep in mind that technologies and techniques in cosmetic procedures evolve, so more recent information may be available.

One of the key advantages of FaceTite™ is its ability to tighten the skin along with removing fat. The radiofrequency energy heats the skin, causing collagen fibers to contract and stimulate collagen production, leading to skin tightening. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity.

You can expect to return to your normal activities, including work, after 2 or 3 days. Returning to more intense activities requires some more time and is usually possible after 3 – 6 weeks although this is dependent on the individual treatment. We can discuss this with you during your consultation.

You can expect swelling, tenderness, and bruising after your treatment for up to a week but you can be rest assured that this is normal.  The incisions are small and heal quickly without stitching necessary. We will also dress this area at the end of the procedure.

Our doctors perform FaceTite™ treatment under local anaesthetic which is injected into the treated area.  We will always make sure that you are comfortable throughout the procedure.

During your consultation, the area to be treated will be assessed by your practitioner. Numbing solutions will then be introduced under the skin to eliminate the pain or discomfort of the procedure. During the procedure, your surgeon will create small entry points, approximately 2-3 mm wide. This allows the FaceTite™ cannula to enter under the skin and deliver radiofrequency to extract fat cells. The procedure takes approximately 1 to 2 hours depending on the size of the area being treated.

FaceTite™ is an ideal treatment for anyone wishing to get rid of stubborn areas of fat whilst also enhancing the look of sagging, wrinkled skin. FaceTite™ can be used on:

• Face
