LASER SKIN TIGHTENING
Ageing, exposure to the sun and smoking cause collagen degradation in the skin, that is why it starts to lose it’s elasticity and moist. Consequently the skin is saggy, less elastic, it’s texture is worse, static wrinkles appear.
INFORMATION
If you want to keep your skin beautiful and elastic, it is important to encourage the formation of collagen and elastin fibres thet help to connect the skin tissues. You can do this in different ways, but they aren’t all effective in the same amout:
Creams and other antiwrinkle substances that are sold are not effective enough for us to be happy with the results. | |
Regular performance of excercises for facial muscle toning (facial yoga) can have visible results, but everyday performance needs discipline, will and time. | |
Surgical procedures on the face are very effective, but very agressive, there is a chance of adverse effects. Recovery takes long, which means our absence in daily activities and obligations. | |
Injecting botox and hialuronic acid is a very widespread and effective method. The procedure needs to be repeated every 6 to 12 months. | |
Laser skin tightening is a safe and unagressive method. The result is a natural look, that is why you don’t have to be scared of looking unnaturally. |

Look younger painlessly and quickly
For an optimal laser facial skin tightening 4 visits with 4 week intervals are needed. Because of the natural process of skin ageing we recommend to repeat the procedure after 12 to 18 months.
We don’t need any agressive substances or chemicals fort he laser procedure, but only stimulate natural regeneration processes in the skin. This is how we encourage the formation of new, more functional collagen and elastin fibres, which ensure a young look.
For an optimal laser skin tightening effect 4 visits are needed, one every four weeks. Because of the natural process of skin aging we recommend to repeat the procedure after 12 to 18 months.
What does the procedure of laser skin-tightening look like?
Your facial skin can be tightened with a laser in two ways:
- The first way includes an approach from the outside which is appropriate for the therapy of the entire face. Because of the exposure of skin to the sun, we don’t perform it during summer months.
- The second way includes an approach from the oral cavity which is appropriate fort he therapy of the lower half of the face. With it we reach both cheaks, lips and the regionaround the mouth and part of the chin.

State right after the procedure |
|
The feeling of warmth is more intense and can take some hours and up to one day. The redness is present only a couple of days after the procedure. |
You can have a feeling of dryness and roughness in the mouth for one to two days. There is no redness and no obvious signs of a procedure. |
Skin care after the procedure |
|
– If needed we use cold compressions. – We recommend the use of moisturising creams. – You can already use make up the second day after the procedure. – Avoid sun exposure for 4 weeks. Always use sun protection 50+ during outdoor activities. |
Special skin care is not necessary. |
