Will venus freeze on face reduce fat?

Question

I'm slim and athletic, I am on my 50' and I've lost fat on my face. My cheeks are saggy and I have marionette lines. I'm looking for firmer, younger looking skin and would like to know if venus freeze is the right treatment for me? since I do not want to loose more fat . I guess my main concern is; is venus treatment on face the right choice for someone who wants firmer skin but does NOT want to loose any more fat?

If you are interested in not losing any fat and just want to tighten your skin, ultherapy is a great option for tightening and it's also long lasting.  Venus freeze is a temporary treatment and requires mainentaince.  Ultherapy is the only FDA-cleared procedure to non-invasively lift and tighten. Ultherapy uses safe, time-tested ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin naturally,without surgery or downtime. Patients usually require just one treatment and results typically show in 3 months.  Results can last 1-2 years depending on how your body ages and on your lifestyle.

Hi Cezz,It is thought that Venus Freeze can be used on the face without affecting the facial fat.  That being said, in our practice we use Venus Freeze to tighten skin everywhere on the body except the face, I personally do not wish to take any chances.  The best non-surgical skin tightener and lifter of the face is Ultherapy.  You must choose your treating most carefully.  Good luck and be well.Dr. P

There are specific settings on the machine for what is being targeted. There are heat ranges that your technician will use that are based on tightening vs fat. So it is 100% possible to treat the face without any fat loss. There are many offices that perform Venus Freeze so make sure you find one with experience, and not just a cheap price.
