Keeping it Tight
What is Skin Tightening?
Skin tightening procedures use advanced technologies like radiofrequency energy or plasma energy to target the deeper layers of your skin. This stimulates the production of collagen, a protein that gives skin its structure and elasticity. As a result, your skin becomes tighter, firmer, and more youthful.
Body By Bloch offers two state-of-the-art skin tightening options in Highland Park BodyTite and Renuvion. During your consultation, our aesthetic specialists will discuss your goals and recommend the best procedure for you.
Confidence Boosting
What is the Skin Tightening procedure like?
BodyTite
BodyTite is a minimally invasive liposuction procedure that combines radiofrequency energy with liposuction to remove unwanted fat and tighten the skin in a single treatment. A local anesthetic is used for patient comfort. A thin cannula is inserted under the skin, and radiofrequency energy is delivered to liquefy fat and stimulate collagen production. The liquefied fat is then gently suctioned out. Compared to traditional liposuction, BodyTite offers a more precise and controlled approach to fat removal and skin tightening.
Renuvion
Renuvion is an innovative technology that uses helium plasma to tighten the skin. During the procedure, a tiny probe is inserted under the skin. Helium plasma energy is then delivered to the tissue, causing immediate tightening and contraction. Renuvion is ideal for treating smaller areas with loose skin, such as the neck, jowls, and around the eyes.
