Tighten & Tone: The Rise of Non-Surgical Skin Tightening Treatments

The road to firmer, more youthful-looking skin doesn’t necessarily involve a scalpel.

Thanks to major advancements in non-surgical technologies – like ultrasound therapy, radiofrequency (RF), and fractional laser resurfacing – more people are opting for a subtle, refreshed, and more contoured appearance without the downtime or risks of surgery.

As early as our 30s, we begin to lose collagen and elastin – proteins that keep skin firm and elastic. This can lead to sagging around the jawline, eyelids, cheeks, or loose skin after weight loss or pregnancy. Australian Skin Face Body offers tailored, non-invasive solutions for both face and body.

Non-surgical treatments work in a multi-layer approach, with a combination of medical grade skincare for the top layer; lasers or skin-tightening devices for the deeper layers; and subtle treatments to restore structure down to the bone. This approach stems from a growing understanding that the face ages in layers, and that we need to address all of them to have a truly holistic approach.

For the face, the gamechanger Ultraformer MPT, uses ultrasound energy to lift and sculpt. This device provides a customised treatment procedure for the face, neck and decolletage using the very latest ultrasound technology. Popular treatment areas include contouring of the superficial jowl pads, reducing under chin fat and skin laxity.

Potenza combines RF energy with microneedling to boost collagen, tighten skin, and gradually improve laxity – ideal for mild to moderate sagging on the face and neck.

For overall skin rejuvenation, fractional CO2 laser resurfacing, tailored to your needs, can offer powerful improvements in texture, tone and pigmentation.

When it comes to body skin tightening, there are contouring solutions – targeting fat cells while tightening the overlying skin, improving tone and reducing skin laxity in areas like the stomach, thighs and arms.

With minimal recovery time, most of these treatments, will seamlessly fit into a busy lifestyle.
