Skin Tightening

The new Titan Laser Treatment gives you an all-natural option to actively turn back the clock on aging skin. Using light energy to stimulate new collagen growth deep beneath your skin's surface, Titan can tighten skin on your face, arms, abdomen and legs. It's an ideal solution to enhance your youthful and health appearance with surgery, recovery time or injections.

What happens after the treatment? Are there any side effects?

Immediately following the treatment, you may notice some redness and mild swelling in the treated area. Both should dissipate within a few hours. Prior to treatment, we will provide you with complete information on the benefits and risks of treatment.

When will I see results?

Some patients see results immediately. However, for most patients, the results are gradual over a three to six month period as new collagen is formed and the skin tightens.

What do treatments feel like?

With each Titan pulse, you will feel a brief heating sensation. Some patients are more comfortable taking a mild pain reliever beforehand. Many patients are comfortable without anything. We will advise you of your options before the treatments begin.

Has the Titan been tested and approved?

The Titan has been carefully studied in clinics around the world. It is cleared for the treatment of wrinkles in Europe and for general dermatologic use in Canada. In the US, it is cleared for topical heating to increase local tissue temperatures and circulation. An additional 510(k) clearance is pending in the US for the treatment of wrinkles.

How does the Titan work?

Titan utilizes a safe, infrared light to heat the dermis well below the skin’s surface. This heating can cause immediate collagen contraction. During the procedure, the skin’s surface (epidermis) is protected through continuous cooling with the Titan handpiece. After the procedure, new collagen growth results in further tightening and the development of a more youthful, complexion with less lines, folds or looseness of the skin.

What areas respond best to the Titan procedure?

Patients have been successfully treated on many areas of the body where skin is lax. Loose skin on the abdomen, back of the upper arm, along the jaw line and under the chin have responded particularly well to the procedure.

Who can be treated?

Since the Titan procedure is heating tissue under the skin’s surface, patients of any skin type can be treated. Men and women of all ages have been successfully treated. We can advise you if the Titan is right for you.

How many treatments will I need?

A single treatment has produced very good results for many patients. We will be able to advise you as to the number and frequency of treatments recommended for optimal results.
