How Wrinkles & Sagging Occur

Over time, the skin loses its natural elasticity, leading to wrinkles and sagging. This is due to various factors, including sun damage, genetics, and natural aging. As we age, collagen and elastin production decreases, causing the skin to become less plump and firm. Additionally, gravity and repetitive facial movements contribute to the formation of wrinkles, leaving the face and neck looking tired. We use cutting-edge, non-surgical solutions to tighten your skin and reverse the signs of aging.

What Is Non-Surgical Face Lift & Neck Lift?

Non-surgical face lift and neck lift refers to a group of minimally invasive, non-surgical treatments that reverse the signs of aging and elevate face/neck contours without surgery. Non-surgical rejuvenation methods may include FaceTite, Morpheus8, neurotoxins, and dermal fillers — these treatments use advanced technologies and methods to correct wrinkles, sagging skin, and the loss of firmness. The ultimate goal is to restore a youthful, refreshed appearance while minimizing downtime and the need for incisions.

Non-Surgical Face Lift & Neck Lift Corrects:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Sagging skin
  • Loss of volume in the mid-face
  • Double chin
  • Jowls
  • Loose neck skin
  • Drooping jawline
  • Poor skin texture and tone
  • Dull and tired appearance
  • Aging signs in the face and neck
  • Unbalanced neck-to-face ratio
  • Loose skin and fat under the chin

FaceTite

FaceTite is a non-surgical procedure that utilizes radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis to rejuvenate and tighten the skin on the face and neck. The technology targets the dermis, where wrinkles and scars often begin, and works by inserting a probe under the skin to heat the tissue and stimulate collagen production. The heat energy is precisely controlled, resulting in a youthful, contoured appearance for the face and neck.

During the procedure, Dr. Braunstein monitors the skin temperature for extra safety, ensuring the heat energy is focused and doesn’t damage surrounding tissue. In addition, the heat energy used during FaceTite can liquify (melt) any fatty deposits on the neck, which can be suctioned out of the body. Following your procedure for FaceTite, expect to see slimmer and more contoured features in your face and neck. Enjoy the benefits of a rejuvenated appearance without needing extended recovery or downtime.

Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is a revolutionary non-surgical facial and neck rejuvenation treatment that utilizes advanced radiofrequency technology to deliver impressive results. It’s a minimally invasive procedure designed to target common signs of aging, such as sagging skin, fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of facial volume. Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy, making it a versatile option for individuals seeking natural-looking, long-lasting improvements in their appearance.

During the Morpheus8 procedure, a specialized handpiece with ultra-fine needles creates tiny micro-injuries in the skin’s surface while delivering controlled radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis. This dual-action approach stimulates collagen production, tightens the skin, and enhances its texture and tone. As a result, Morpheus8 helps to lift and rejuvenate the treated areas, giving patients a more youthful look. This treatment is known for its precision and minimal downtime.

MYELLEVATE

MyEllevate stands out as an innovative cosmetic technique that enhances the neck and jawline’s shape by elevating the muscles and glands. It is unique globally for utilizing the ICLED® light-guided suture system, creating a refined appearance in the neck region. Unlike the temporary effects of thread lifts, MyEllevate offers lasting results.

This method employs a suture thread woven through the neck’s muscles and glands without requiring cuts. The threads are then secured to reposition and tighten the sagging areas. This approach yields a sharply defined jawline and neck profile without needing incisions below the chin for a more rejuvenated, chiseled neck and jawline appearance.

Neurotoxins

Neurotoxins like Botox and Dysport are injectables that combat dynamic wrinkles caused by the overuse of certain facial muscles, such as the forehead lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, and crow’s feet around the eyes. These neurotoxins block the nerve signals that cause muscles to contract, resulting in smoother and more youthful-looking skin.

When injected into specific facial muscles, neurotoxins like Botox and Dysport inhibit the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contractions. They effectively relax the treated muscles, reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles and preventing further formation of lines caused by facial expressions. The results take a few days to become noticeable and can last for three to six months, making neurotoxin a popular choice for those seeking a non-surgical and minimally invasive solution to maintain a youthful appearance.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm, Restylane, and RHA, are cosmetic injectables that address various facial concerns, including the restoration of volume, reduction of wrinkles, and enhancement of facial contours. They consist of a gel-like substance called hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring component in the skin that helps maintain moisture and elasticity.

When injected into targeted areas of the face, dermal fillers add volume, smooth out wrinkles, and rejuvenate the skin. Hyaluronic acid fillers attract and bind water molecules, further enhancing hydration and plumping the treated areas. The result is a more youthful, refreshed appearance, with immediate and long-lasting effects. Over time, the body naturally breaks down the HA filler, but the results can last anywhere from several months to over a year, depending on the specific product used and individual factors.
