About Skin Tightening
Laser Skin Tightening uses leading laser technology to heat the skin surface to 41 degrees - 65 degrees underneath the skin in the epidermis/dermis layer to promote collagen production. The heat will then metabolise unhealthy fibres and cells causing stimulation to the fibroblast cells (these produce collagen and elastin fibres).
This process works to smooth fine lines, wrinkles and improve the overall texture of the skin. Laser Skin Tightening can be used in any area where there is a loss of collagen.
The procedure is quick and comfortable, with minimal downtime.
2 weeks prior to treatment:
No direct sun exposure and daily use of SPF 50+.
Redness and heat in the skin normally subside within 3-4 hours. Post-treatment, it's important to keep the skin cool, calm, and hydrated.
Immediately after treatment
- Avoid direct sun exposure, always protect the skin with a high-quality sunscreen like the Skinstitut® Age Defence 50+
- Avoid exercise, and heat on the treated area (hot showers, saunas)
- Follow the aftercare directions. The Skinstitut® Skin Tightening post-treatment pack is recommended. It includes the Skinstitut® Gentle Cleanser, Enzymatic Micro Peel, Multi-Active Mist, Rejuvenate 15, and Age Defence SPF 50+.

How does skin tightening work?
Laser Skin Tightening is designed to stimulate dermal collagen production and help with the regeneration of damaged skin cells. Skin tightening works on both Type 1 + Type 3 collagen which is a fibrous protein, found in the extra cellular matrix (Dermis). This treatment involves heat energy being delivered into the skin to penetrate deep down whilst protecting the upper visible layers and keeping them intact. It does this by deep thermal effect within the dermis causing collagen contracture and denaturation. This will then induce growth factors and stimulate new collagen synthesis which will then replace the old collagen with new fibres that are more compact and organized to give a less wrinkled appearance. Results are seen 3 months post treatments.
