Why is the skin on my face not tight?

As we start to mature, skin loses its elastic tissue; it becomes slack and starts to hang loosely. This may not just be due to age; it may be because of your lifestyle, diet, genetics, sun exposure, or even stress. It can be very disheartening especially to notice once-taut skin begin to loosen and sag.

Irrespective of why you’re having to contend with loose skin, we have skin tightening procedures at Alchemy Wellness Medspa that may help. Currently, we offer the following treatments for skin tightening:

Frequently Asked Questions About Skin Tightening

What exactly are nonsurgical skin tightening treatments?

These are minimally invasive procedures designed to firm and lift your skin without needing scalpels or stitches. They use innovative technology like lasers, ultrasound, or radiofrequency to boost collagen production and improve skin elasticity.

Do the treatments hurt?

Most of our patients compare the sensation to a warm massage or a gentle vibration. You will feel relaxed and cared for rather than uncomfortable. Plus, there’s no downtime, meaning you can jump right back into your day after your session.

How long do the results last?

Patience pays off with skin tightening treatments! While you’ll start noticing improvements gradually over a few weeks, the full results usually last three to six months. Depending on your skin type and current lifestyle habits, the final changes can last for up to a year or more.

Are these treatments safe for everyone?

These treatments are generally safe for most of our patients, but it’s always best to consult a qualified professional like Dr. Saima Jehangir first. Our team at our office will assess your skin and make personalized recommendations. If you are currently pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain medical conditions, you might want to wait or explore other options until you are a suitable candidate.

Will I look like a completely different person?

Absolutely not! These treatments are specifically designed to enhance your natural beauty by firming and smoothing your skin. You will look like the best version of yourself, not someone else entirely.

How much time does it take per session?

You will be in and out before you know it! Most treatment sessions only take 30 to 60 minutes, making them perfect for a lunch break pick-me-up. Whether you are a busy bee or someone who loves their “me time,” these treatments fit seamlessly into your schedule with minimal interruption.
