Am I a candidate for RF skin tightening?

If you are at least 21 years old and looking for a solution for mild-to-moderate skin laxity (sagging) or stubborn submental fat (double chin), you may be a great candidate for RF skin tightening. That being said, it’s important to go into treatment with clear, realistic expectations. We’ll help you decide if FaceTite or AccuTite is the best option for you during your consultation.

What’s the difference between FaceTite and AccuTite?

While both technologies use radiofrequency energy, they’re designed for different purposes. Typically, we use FaceTite to treat broader areas, like the cheeks and jawline, and AccuTite for smaller, more delicate areas, like around the eyes. With no incisions or extended downtime, these technologies provide a natural yet noticeable lifting and contouring effect. However, they require a skilled hand. Our providers will help you choose the safest, most effective treatment for you, which may include a combination of FaceTite and AccuTite.

How do I prepare for treatment?

Avoid using blood thinners, NSAIDs, retinol, tretinoin, and vitamin C products the week before your appointment to minimize bruising. You should also refrain from abrasive treatments like waxing, tweezing, and chemical peels to minimize skin irritation.

What should I expect after treatment?

Most patients experience minor swelling, tenderness, and tightness for a few days after treatment. As your skin heals, do not rub or apply pressure to the area. Avoid lying flat for 4 hours after treatment and do not exercise, apply makeup or skincare products, or expose your skin to intense heat for 24 hours. Before you leave our office, we’ll walk you through the exact steps you should take to encourage healing so you feel confident walking out. Over the next 1 to 6 months, you’ll notice gradual improvements that can last for years .

How Radiofrequency Skin Tightening Works

Change is inevitable, but thanks to our revolutionary radiofrequency (RF) devices, you don’t have to settle for changes that make you feel anything short of amazing in your skin. Both AccuTite and FaceTite use RF energy to reach beneath your skin’s surface, where the energy converts into heat. This heat melts stubborn fat cells and triggers collagen production, giving your skin the resources to rebuild.

At JK Med Spa, our physician-led team uses these innovative devices to turn back time without making you look unlike yourself, addressing concerns such as:

Crow’s feet
Submental (chin) fat
Forehead lines
Nasolabial folds
Sagging skin
