How Is Nonsurgical Skin Tightening Performed?
You can select from three treatment technologies by InMode for your nonsurgical skin tightening procedure. We will discuss these options in-depth during your consultation at Evolve Med Spa.
Evolve Tite: Evolve Tite is a skin remodeling technology that uses radiofrequency energy to contour, tighten, and tone loose skin, increasing overall firmness. This option is ideal for patients looking for a nonsurgical treatment to address cellulite, skin sagging, or overall body appearance. Commonly treated areas include thighs, abdomen, and arms.
Fractora: Fractora is a radiofrequency treatment that uses subdermal heating to stimulate your body's natural collagen production to remodel skin, bridging the gap between lasers and surgery. This is a popular treatment for tightening skin on the eyelids, smile lines, cheeks, neck, forehead, and mouth. It is also effective for treating cystic acne and scars.
Morpheus8: This subdermal adipose remodeling device (SARD) harnesses the power of radiofrequency for deepest fractional remodeling. The Morpheus8 technology stimulates your body's collagen and elastin production to firm and tighten skin, revealing a younger, smoother appearance.
WiQo PRX-T33: This gentle exfoliation treatment includes TCA (Trichloroacetic acid), Kojic Acid and Benzoyl Peroxide to induce fibroblast function, increasing collagen and elastin production for firm, healthy skin. Unlike typical TCA peels in the industry, this "peel" is formulated with a smaller molecular base, to absorb deeper into the papillary dermis, where our collagen and elastin are being produced. With this deeper absorption comes little to no peeling or downtime, with treatments once per week in a package of four or more sessions. WiQo PRX Therapy is fantastic for all skin types and concerns ranging from large pores and acne scars, to deep wrinkles and moderate to severe laxity. Great to get started in the anti-aging process, and use in conjunction with, or maintain after deeper procedures, like Morpheus8 RF Microneedling and CollagenPin Microneedling.
Plasma Pen: PlasmaMD is another "fibroblasting" treatment to enhance fibroblast function and in turn, collagen and elastin production. This resurfacing treatment is phenomenal for those wanting a non-surgical approach to a blepheroplasty or to negate the necessity for filler in lines around the lips. This does include a lot of surface heat, so it is not intended for darker skin types, especially without pretreating the area for 4 to 6 weeks prior to procedure, to prevent unwanted pigmentation. PlasmaMD treatments do require 5 to 7 days downtime, which can be lessened with WiQo included!
Who Can Have Nonsurgical Skin Tightening?
Surgery for skin tightening, or "lifts" like a facelift, are still the best option to minimize sagging skin. Nonsurgical skin tightening can rejuvenate your skin if you do not want to have a surgical procedure. Nonsurgical skin tightening treatments may be performed on most areas of the body and face, including the abs, under the chin, upper arms, and thighs. The best patients for this procedure:
- Are in good overall health
- Maintain a stable weight
- Have mild to medium skin looseness
- Have lines or wrinkles on their skin
- Want to enhance the firmness and aesthetics of their skin
How Does Nonsurgical Skin Tightening Work?
Our aesthetician will first clean the treatment area to ensure it is prepped and ready to go. Anesthesia options may be provided if you would prefer; however, many patients find that any mild discomfort during the treatment is short-lived and manageable. As soon as you are ready, your aesthetician will pass a device evenly over the skin multiple times for an effective session. The energy prompts the body’s natural healing properties to start producing elastin and collagen, which tightens and firms the skin. The treatment can take about 30 – 90 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas being treated. Once the treatment is complete, you'll be able to leave and get back to your daily activities.
What To Expect After Nonsurgical Skin Tightening
Following your skin tightening appointment at Evolve Med Spa, the affected areas may be somewhat inflamed, numb, or red. This is normal and should clear up naturally within several days. Dr. Shimer will talk about methods to care for the treated skin at home after your session, like keeping the skin moisturized and protected from the sun. Many patients won't see noticeable results immediately after the procedure. Since the elastin and collagen stimulation and production is a slow process, you can see the full results in about 2 – 6 months after your procedure.
How Many Treatments Should I Have?
The results from your nonsurgical skin tightening procedure should last a long time and enhance the overall health and appearance of your skin. However, you will probably need multiple treatments to get the ideal outcome. Our professional team at Evolve Med Spa can help develop your personalized treatment plan based on your concerns and goals.

Can I have nonsurgical skin tightening with other treatments?
Yes, absolutely. Nonsurgical skin tightening can be performed on its own or to accompany additional procedures. Many patients commonly prefer to undergo nonsurgical skin tightening at the same time as other nonsurgical options.
Is nonsurgical skin tightening safe for dark skin?
Prior to any procedure, our knowledgeable team will perform a comprehensive skin assessment to ensure a safe and effective treatment. We are proud to offer a diverse collection of nonsurgical skin tightening solutions that may be considered suitable for a wide range of skin tones and types.

How often will I need touch-ups?
You might notice variability with your results, depending on the strength of your initial treatment as well as your body's unique response to treatment.

You may want touch-ups as much as 1 — 3 times a year, depending on your goals and your skin.
Is there any downtime associated with nonsurgical skin tightening?
Nonsurgical skin tightening treatments generally involve minimal to no downtime, allowing patients to return to their daily activities immediately after the procedure. Some patients may experience mild redness or swelling, which typically resolves within a few hours to a day.
