Similar to Thermage, TITAN by Cutera is the latest
innovation in light based technology to achieve tightening of loose
skin. Safe and painless, TITAN uses an infra-red light source to
heat the dermis of the skin, stimulating collagen production.
Collagen fibres contract, resulting in firmer skin that is
described as a 'non surgical facelift'.
Often used in combination with cosmetic filler
injections to restore volume in the cheeks and jawline, the overall
results give both a firmer, fuller and naturally rejuvenated
appearance to the face.
How does it work?
TITAN gently heats
the inner layers of the skin, causing collagen contraction and
production. This heating
can cause immediate collagen contraction. After the procedure,
new collagen growth results in further tightening and the
development of a more youthful
complexion.
While it uses different underlying technology to
Thermage, TITAN achieves the same beautifully rejuvenated
result.
What parts of
my body will it treat?
TITAN reduces smile
lines, lifts the brow and firms the neck and jaw line. Results
continue to improve for up to six months after treatment. Although
suitable for all skin types, consultation is recommended to
assist you in your best treatments
options.
This procedure
takes about an hour and requires no down time.
TITANĀ® has become very popular in Hollywood as a yearly collagen
'boost' for the face and neck.
