The longevity of your FaceTite results varies depending on the individual. While they can last for many years, it’s essential to acknowledge that skin aging continues due to factors such as sun damage, smoking, genetics, and natural aging. Consistent skin care and radiofrequency microneedling with the Morpheus 8/Fractora handpieces can aid in maintaining your results over time.

What Is FaceTite?
FaceTite provides a dramatic improvement in skin laxity on the face and neck, which was previously only possible with surgery, such as a facelift. It is usually combined with liposuction of the neck and microneedling of the skin for best results.
It only requires one treatment with FaceTite in Traverse City to achieve results comparable to surgery, without any scarring and significantly less recovery time. FaceTite uses radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) technology to effectively reduce fat and sculpt the skin on both the face and neck, including double chin, jowls, and other areas with deep lines and loose skin.

FaceTite Procedure
Utilizing the identical radiofrequency energy delivery system as BodyTite, FaceTite targets skin tightening in the lower face, jowls, and neck areas. While BodyTite primarily concentrates on fat removal, FaceTite predominantly focuses on skin tightening. Nevertheless, FaceTite can also address fat removal beneath the chin and in regions prone to laugh lines if deemed necessary.
FaceTite is conducted under local anesthesia. In this procedure, a tumescent solution comprising low-dose Lidocaine and saline is infiltrated to numb the area and constrict blood vessels, minimizing bruising. Entry points for the procedure are tiny pinpricks, approximately 2mm in size, typically necessitating only a bandage, and they do not result in scarring.

Frequently Asked Questions
FaceTite is a well-tolerated outpatient procedure conducted under local anesthesia with mild sedation. Swelling, bruising, and occasional pinpoint areas of crusting are normal post-procedure.
Mild discomfort due to inflammation typically responds well to non-narcotic pain medications. Patients are required to wear a neck compression garment continuously for three days, followed by nightly use for one week. Most individuals can resume work within 2-3 days but should refrain from cardio or strenuous exercise for approximately two weeks after getting FaceTite in Traverse City.
Tiny incisions measuring 1-2 mm are created to facilitate the entry of the FaceTite handpiece and liposuction cannulas into the targeted fatty areas for fat removal and skin tightening. These scars are minuscule and frequently concealed within natural creases and shadows. These faint, small scars will probably go unnoticed unless specifically pointed out.
Like any procedure involving minor skin incisions, there are inherent risks associated with FaceTite. These risks can be classified into short-term and long-term categories. In the short term, patients may experience bleeding and subsequent bruising. Temporary numbness is common.
We use FaceTite in Traverse City as a versatile treatment option highly effective in addressing loose skin and excess fat in various facial areas including the neck, jowls, and submental region (under the chin).
