Men and women with the signs of aging impacting their facial appearance may start to consider the benefits of a surgical facelift. Many of them schedule an appointment at the Plastic Surgery Center of Hampton Roads in Virginia to learn more about the procedure. However, thanks to continued technological advances that have hit the area of cosmetic surgery, patients no longer have to undergo surgical intervention to turn back the hands of time! Instead, patients are encouraged to ask about the benefits of a treatment called the FaceTite treatment.

The doctors at the Plastic Surgery Center of Hampton Roads describe the FaceTite treatment as a wonderful alternative to a surgical facelift. This procedure provides the results that are often seen with a facelift procedure without the surgery or scarring. With one procedure, patients will see significant, long-lasting results in their skin’s laxity. This treatment improves facial contouring, lifting, and refinement focused on skin laxity on the face and neck that contribute to an aged look.

FaceTite works by using radiofrequency energy that can help fat underneath the skin while tightening it by stimulating the natural process of developing collagen and elastin. It is minimally invasive and is performed with light sedation and local anesthetics. Patients can turn to normal activities shortly after their procedure, reducing the recovery time needed for most plastic surgeries. Patients are scar-free and will see the best results approximately six months after their procedure, sometimes up to a year. This is because of the time needed to produce collagen and elastin as activated by the radio-frequency energy. While gradual, the results are noticeable and natural-looking.
