FaceTite in Austin, Lakeway

FaceTite is an FDA-approved treatment developed to melt away unwanted fat and tighten loose skin in one procedure. This technique is also referred to as radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis or RFAL. FaceTite follows the same energy technology as BodyTite. This RFAL treatment is conducted in the office. The intent of the procedure is to rejuvenate the face by affecting both fat cells and collagen-producing cells for maximum improvement of common concerns such as minor submental fullness (double chin), sagging Jowls, drooping eyebrows, and loose neck skin.

If you're an adult who's interested in achieving long-lasting, visible improvements to your appearance without having surgery, radiofrequency technology may be the perfect solution for you. From reducing jowls and submental fullness to tightening the face - all from a single visit - this non-invasive treatment can provide excellent results with minimal effort or commitment.

FaceTite treatment is performed using a small handpiece that features an external electrode and an internal wand that are positioned parallel to one another. The internal piece is inserted through a pin-hole incision in the skin after the tissue has been numbed with a local anesthetic. Together, the two ends of the handpiece emit radiofrequency to superficial tissue to melt fat cells and tighten collagen strands for immediate and long-term results. Treatment usually takes no more than 45 minutes.

Patients who receive FaceTite treatment often recover without pain medication, as the primary side effect is swelling. Additionally, tenderness and soreness may be present briefly; however, these sensations typically vanish shortly after the procedure's completion. Some patients report that their treatment area feels numb for several hours and that this transitions to itching once the sensation returns. Bruising and redness are also side effects that may develop, along with skin roughness or irregularity. These normal thermal energy and collagen remodeling effects diminish over several days.

FaceTite is a minimally invasive procedure that is commonly combined with other procedures. FaceTite can be combined with liposuction to reduce submental fullness. Laser skin resurfacing and injectable treatments may also be combined into a rejuvenating treatment plan.

FaceTite utilizes radio frequency technology delivered through a tiny incision and requires only local anesthesia or light sedation for comfort during treatment. Afterwards, most patients can go home and return to their normal daily activities soon after without having to worry about any significant downtime. Wearing a recommended compression garment assists in maximizing results. With this highly effective procedure, FaceTite can help achieve dramatic outcomes with minimal risk, discomfort, and costly recovery time.
