I am concerned of a bit of heavy lower face. lost 100+ lb and have some loose skin that I can stretch out at my jawline (laxity). It can not be noticed at rest as loose skin, but it just makes my face looks bigger (no jowling). I am too young for a facelift (late 30s) & have been told that facelift won't improve this kind of laxity. I heard that facetite can improve laxity by 40% so can it be repeated to get more tightening and at what frequency?
Answer: Repeated FaceTite Interesting question. First because your 30, a FaceTite procedure with micro needlingRF will give you some results. Remember it's still a procedure and therefore takes at least 6 to 9 months to fully heal. You may then be a candidate for a secondary procedure then. Also remember that the most aggresive technique to get rid of excessive facial skin is a face lift and this may be considered if your first FaceTite procedure leaves to much facial skin.

Answer: Can FaceTite be repeated? Hi and thankyou for your question. It sounds like you would be a perfect candidate for a radiofrequency-based skin tightening procedure. At Wave, we offer the Facetite bipolar RF modality as well as the fractional Morpheus8 RF microneedling devices which are state-of-the-art. These devices work together to tighten loose skin, liquefy extra fat, and stimulate new collagen and elastin fiber generation. They are perfect for patients who do not have enough loose skin and fat to justify a face/neck lift surgery, but need some moderate tightening to provide a nice result, with the added benefit of no surgical scars and faster recovery time. It could be repeated if necessary, but the RF energy generally stimulates skin tightening for up to a year, so typically one procedure is all that patients need.

Answer: Mini Facelift & Mini neck lift -- FaceTite RF for internal skin tightening + Neck Liposuction for definition/contouring FaceTite can be repeated. However, I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert to determine what is the best treatment for your specific case.FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime. Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure.Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Can FaceTite be repeated? A FaceTite procedure could be repeated. I would recommend waiting at least 6-12 months before considering a second treatment though. An examination of you would be needed to determine if you might be a good candidate for FaceTite or not.
