Plastic surgery procedures offer promising results. The common procedures that adults consider over time, such as liposuction, blepharoplasty, brow lift, and facelift surgery, have been around for decades. This means we know how they work; we know their risks and side effects, their downtime and expected length of results. Even with the vast amount of data showing the effectiveness and safety of plastic surgery procedures performed by appropriately certified plastic surgeons, many people who want to look better want to first explore their nonsurgical options. We’ve got them, and we will discuss some of them here.
Refresh the Eyes with AccuTite
Sagging eyelid skin is a prominent concern reported by adults whose skin has begun showing the signs of collagen loss. When the is no longer supplied with hefty amounts of collagen and elastin, tissue weakens and thins. It doesn’t resist gravity as well as it once did, and we end up with puffy under eye bags or heavy, drooping upper eyelids. Many people think of injectables to treat the eye area. There’s new technology that is worth considering. AccuTite is a treatment we are proud to offer. The device, made by InMode, a leader in radiofrequency technology, deposits skin-tightening, fat-melting radiofrequency waves where it can do its best work, beneath the skin. AccuTite is performed using a mild sedative and anesthetics that improve comfort. To refresh the target area, the doctor makes tiny punctures in the skin through which an internal probe is inserted. Parallel to that is an external electrode that also emits RF energy. This design sandwiches the thermal energy to rapidly heat the dermis for extraordinary results.Â
Slim and Contour the Body Without Surgery
Body contours are not easy to get and maintain at their ideal state. Unfortunately, our modern lifestyle and very biology can work against us. For areas of stubborn fat, many people consider liposuction. For nonsurgical but still powerful effects, our patients might consider CoolSculpting or BodyTite. Both are clinically proven to achieve outstanding results but each works using patented technology. You may know CoolSculpting as the completely non-invasive fat-freezing treatment. Results appear over many weeks and usually 2 to 3 sessions. BodyTite works in similar fashion to AccuTite. This device applicator delivers radiofrequency energy to melt fat cells. However, it then inserts a cannula through the same tiny incision to gently suction out the melted substance.Â
