Laser Skin Tightening
Our skin loses its elasticity as we get older. For some people, their looser skin is going to have a saggy look to it and influence how they feel about their appearance. This can be true for different areas of the body, from the face to the stomach, arms, or elsewhere. Laser skin tightening is a blessing for people because before they had no choice but to accept their sagging skin. It’s an especially effective procedure when performed by an expert laser esthetics technician.
Here at Maya Laser, we are fortunate to have this type of technician and our Candela Gentle Max Pro unit is arguably the best skin tightening laser on the market. We recommend Candela Gentle Max laser skin tightening very enthusiastically, as we’ve seen the impressive results it creates for our clients.
One of the most popular body regions for laser skin tightening is on the stomach and general midsection region. Especially for women who have flabby skin there caused by childbirth. It’s entirely natural and very common, and the majority of people who love these women won’t mind it at all. However, the women themselves do.
If you’re one such woman, and you’re intrigued to know more about laser skin tightening then please read on.
Tightening Up
A laser skin tightening treatment is effective in a very specific way. All lasers used for therapeutic approaches will have the light of the laser turning to heat once it moves under the skin layer. With laser skin tightening what happens is this extreme heat creates a degree of thermal injury in the skin. This results in fibroblasts of the skin becoming activated by stretch receptors.
From there, the body is prompted to release high levels of inflammatory cytokines to the region. What they do there is build up greater levels of Type I collagen. Many of you will probably know that it is sufficient collagen levels that give skin elasticity. You have plenty of collagen in your skin in your youth, but with age it diminishes and that’s what makes skin less tight.
The ideal dermal temperature of 65 degrees Celsius can be reliably achieved with the machine, and the techs at our Victoria skin laser clinic rely on that to provide best service and solid results.
Your laser skin tightening treatment is also effective in promoting better and tighter skin in the way it also causes a rise in collagenase MMP-1 skin enzyme, and it works to replace old collagen structures with new ones.
Using the 1064nm laser wavelength on our Gentle Max is the natural choice for the best skin tightening laser treatment. That’s because it is suitable for nearly all skin types, and treatments can be scheduled approximately one month apart from each other to maximize results.
