Frequently Asked Questions on the Laser Lift

Laser lift is a breakthrough facial rejuvenation procedure. It is a great option for men and women looking to tighten and rejuvenate the lower face and neck. This safe and effective minimally invasive procedure helps lift years off your face without the risks and downtime of surgery. People looking to have the treatment take up the procedure usually have a lot of questions about it. Here are the answers to these common queries.

What exactly is a laser facelift?

This is a minimally invasive facial rejuvenation procedure performed using laser technology. It helps restore youthful appeal in a short time. At established practices, this procedure is performed using PrecisionTx, the innovative FDA approved laser technology from Cynosure.

How does the treatment work?

Precision Tx™ uses a side-firing Nd:YAG 1440nm wavelength laser. After administering local anesthesia at the treatment site (lower face and neck), the small device is inserted in the skin through tiny incisions to deliver laser energy there. With bi-directional energy distribution, the laser allows more focused tissue targeting. This precision laser treatment is ideal for contouring smaller areas. This precision laser effectively tightens the skin and the underlying supporting tissues of the face. Its temperature control system, ThermaGuide, provides temperature feedback, allowing the plastic surgeon to deliver the appropriate level of laser energy.

What improvements does the laser lift provide?

This quick and easy procedure rejuvenates your face and leaves you looking younger and refreshed by:

>> restoring the youthful curve of the neck

How long will it take to get the procedure done?
