Non-Surgical Skin Tightening Consultation
Non-surgical radiofrequency treatment may improve the appearance of mild skin laxity for selected patients, but it cannot reproduce surgical skin removal.
Setting appropriate expectations
The consultation distinguishes mild laxity from cellulite, localized fat, muscle separation or substantial excess skin. Device-based treatment may offer gradual, limited cosmetic improvement; results can be temporary and vary by area, skin quality and individual response.
Potential candidates
Adults with realistic goals and a concern suitable for the specific device after medical and skin assessment.
Alternatives
Observation, skin care, a different non-surgical procedure or consultation with a dermatologist or plastic surgeon may be more appropriate.
Safety
Redness, swelling, discomfort, burns, pigment change, contour irregularity and unsatisfactory results are possible.
Pricing depends on the technology, area and number of sessions. Review the FDA’s overview of non-invasive contouring technology.
