General information

Laser Skin Tightening is a non-surgical face lift. At the Premier Laser Clinic we have selected Candela GentleYAG laser technology which helps to create firmer tighter skin with minimual discomfort.

The Candela GentleYAG laser "tightens" by heating the underlying layers in the skin and forming new collagen resulting in smoother, younger-looking skin. The GentleYAG's patented epidermal cooling system, the Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD(TM)), protects the skin surface with every laser pulse allowing for quick results and patient comfort. Only the skin beneath the surface is affected by the laser. The final result is firmer skin, more defined facial contours and a more youthful appearance.

The GentleYag can be used with no medication at all and discomfort levels are compared to that of a rubber band snapped against the skin.

Laser Skin Tightening provides multiple benefits, Your laser skin tightening treatment will

• tighten your skin
• decreases fine lines
• provide a smoother texture
• decrease pore size

How GentleYag Tightens Skin

Surface and topical products cannot induce collagen formation for true tightening of sagging or drooping skin as laser treatments can. Laser treatments result in skin tightening when subsurface heat is created in the collagen-rich dermal layer.

Once the collagen in the skin is heated to a temperature above 60 degrees centigrade, it will contract and tighten. Aging collagen strands are looser and more sparse than "young" collagen. Your laser skin tightening treatment causes an immediate tightening as well as improved tone and texture. New collagen growth will continue for four to six months post treatment.

With Laser Skin Tightening, a series of 4 to 6 treatments approximately a month apart are recommended for optimum results. Maximum results are seen about 90 days after the last treatment.
