Targeted Skin Tightening with Minimally Invasive Technology
FaceTite offers a minimally invasive approach to improving skin laxity and contour, using radiofrequency-assisted technology to tighten tissue and refine areas of the lower face and neck.
It is designed for those seeking more than non-surgical treatments can offer, but without proceeding directly to traditional surgery.
A Controlled Approach to Tissue Tightening
FaceTite works by delivering controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin, generating heat within the underlying tissues.
This process:
- Stimulates collagen production
- Encourages contraction of soft tissue
- Improves contour in selected areas
The aim is gradual tightening and improvement in skin quality, rather than dramatic repositioning.
Clinical Oversight and Expertise
Treatment is performed under the supervision of a Consultant Maxillofacial Surgeon, ensuring careful patient selection and a structured treatment plan.
This ensures:
- Appropriate identification of candidates
- Accurate delivery of energy within safe parameters
- Integration with other treatments where beneficial
Judgement in indication is critical, as outcomes depend heavily on selecting the right patients.
What FaceTite Can Address
FaceTite may be suitable for:
- Early to moderate skin laxity
- Loss of definition along the jawline
- Mild jowling
- Submental fullness (under the chin)
- Early neck laxity
It is most effective where changes are present but not advanced.
The Procedure
FaceTite is typically performed under local anaesthetic.
- A small probe is introduced beneath the skin
- Radiofrequency energy is applied in a controlled manner
- External monitoring ensures safe and even treatment
The procedure is relatively quick and designed to minimise disruption.
Recovery and Results
Downtime is generally limited, with:
- Mild swelling and bruising for several days
- Gradual tightening developing over weeks to months
Results appear progressively as collagen remodelling occurs, leading to:
- Improved skin firmness
- More defined contours
- Subtle enhancement of facial shape
Outcomes are modest compared to surgical procedures, but can be appropriate in selected cases.
FaceTite vs Facelift
A key consideration is the degree of tissue change.
FaceTite
- Minimally invasive
- Improves mild to moderate skin laxity
- Does not reposition deeper structures
- Produces gradual, more subtle results
Facelift
- Surgical procedure
- Repositions underlying tissues
- Addresses more advanced laxity and descent
- Provides more definitive and longer-lasting results
FaceTite is best considered in earlier stages, or when surgical intervention is not yet appropriate. In more advanced cases, a facelift remains the more effective option.
A Considered Approach
We approach treatments such as FaceTite with careful selection:
- Prioritising appropriate indication over availability of technology
- Avoiding over-treatment in unsuitable cases
- Combining with other treatments where beneficial
- Maintaining results that remain natural and proportionate
Consultation
A detailed consultation allows for assessment of skin laxity, tissue quality, and overall facial balance, ensuring that FaceTite is an appropriate option.
Where indicated, alternative treatments—including surgical options—will be discussed.
