Non-surgical treatments are typically open to a wider range of potential patients than invasive options. This is because they place minimal strain on the body. Additionally, they only require mild local numbing rather than general anesthesia, which comes with a number of risks. So if you are looking for a gentler, more patient-centric approach to cosmetic rejuvenation, then non-surgical neck tightening may be right for you. This option is best for patients who have mild to moderate wrinkles, banding, or looseness around the neck.
Additionally, we work closely with each patient to match them with a treatment plan ideal for their situation. Your personalized plan may consist of one or more treatments designed to work with your specified goals.
Non-invasive procedures come with little to no recovery time required. There are no incisions that need to close and no damage to tissues that need to heal. While microneedling does create punctures, they are small enough that they do not interfere with your daily routine. At most, patients can expect some redness, minor swelling, and mild flaking as the skin responds to the treatment. While there is no real downtime, we do recommend that patients take care of their skin for the week or two following treatment. Avoid excess sunlight and any products that might contain abrasive ingredients or anything that can irritate your treatment areas.
Neck tightening results should begin to be noticeable anywhere from several days to within a couple of weeks of your treatment session. As your body responds to your treatment, you should begin noticing gradual improvements. While these may start small, they continue to improve in the weeks following treatment as new collagen is formed, which tightens the skin naturally. Additionally, patients may require a series of treatments to see optimal results. Most patients will need between 2 and 5 sessions to see their final results. These results can last for months to more than a year, depending on individual factors. However, if results begin to fade, quick touchup treatments are often enough to keep your neck looking rejuvenated.
