Arizona Skin Tightening

Women and men who are showing signs of age in the form of wrinkles and sagging flesh can turn back the hands of time through innovative skin tightening treatments. Laser and radio frequency treatments can produce immediate results.

Skin Tightening Defined

Underneath the skin resides collagen, a protein that is found in connective tissue. As people age, the flesh above the collagen loosens or relaxes, creating wrinkles. Medical professionals use lasers in skin tightening treatments to heat the collagen. The rise in temperature leads to a contracting or tightening of the epidermis and wrinkles disappear. Some patients notice immediate results, while others may need several treatments to see a reduction in fine lines and sagging. The treatments can be repeated after a three-week interval of rest, up to six times.

Men and women between the ages of 30 and 60 years old are ideal candidates for this non-invasive procedure. All areas of the face can safely be improved, as well as the arms. Minor side effects may occur, such as a redness and slight swelling of the target area. The affected dermal layer may feel warm to the touch immediately following the procedure. This is normal and not harmful at all.
