As much as non-surgical procedures are good for treating fine lines and wrinkles, they very rarely lift the face or tighten the skin like a facelift does.
The delivery to the skin and subcutaneous fat by way of electromagnetic energy has been done for quite some time now. The benefit is dubious. It probably create swelling that may make the skin look a little more youthful in tight. Benefits will be transient
Thank you for the question and sharing your concerns. Non-medical devices may create subtle improvements, but there are more effective methods for noninvasive skin tightening. I would consider evaluation by a facial plastic surgeon or other cosmetic surgery specialist to discuss your options."This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion. Seek in-person treatment with a trained medical professional for appropriate care."
NuFac may firm your skin slightly, but it will not lift and tighten sagging skin in the jowl or neck area.
Hi Skippe, Thank you for sharing your question. NuFace and other non-surgical devices that offer microcurrents may create a temporary appearance of "lifting" often by causing temporary swelling. These devices do not provide the long term results that long term fillers (like Voluma or Sculptra) or plastic surgery can offer. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon for your aesthetic needs. Very best to you.Brian S. Coan, MD, FACS
Nuface may cause temporary swelling which can give the illusion of tightening or lifting, but I would not expect any meaningful long term lift.
No, it will not. Sagging of face can only be corrected by surgery. Non surgical promises are just promises which do not deliver, just cost money that could have been used for a face lift.
I really do not know. This depends on your laxity and the product. We are currently undertaking non sponsored trials of this device on several subjects to see if at home products like Nuface and Zerogravity work, or work enough to justify their expense. Results will be published shortly. Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
No. Be careful of clever names and claims. The surgical face lift technique, almost 75 years old, with it's refinements made over the years by Plastic Surgeons, was developed to address the many problems of facial aging, sunken cheeks, jowl formation, loose and excess skin, neck fullness and neck bands. This procedure has stood the test of time.
Nu face may give you some skin tightening but you will not get any significant changes in sagging. You will ususally nmeed Ulthera or a facelift depending on your present condition.
