The science
SkinTyte™ is a cutting-edge light-based (BBL) skin tightening system that improves skin laxity around the face and body. Unlike traditional skin tightening treatments that require invasive surgery, SkinTyte™ reduces loose and sagging skin without the need for cutting, anesthesia, or a lengthy recovery period. Instead, SkinTyte™ uses quick bursts of visible and infrared light to increase collagen production in the treated areas and naturally plump the skin over time. SkinTyte™ does not require any downtime, making it the perfect treatment to receive between errands or on a lunch break.
Pulses of infrared light gently heat the deeper layers of the skin while the surface stays protected.
The heat tightens existing collagen fibres, so skin can feel firmer soon after treatment.
Over the following months the skin makes new collagen, for firmer, smoother and lifted-looking skin.

Yes! SkinTyte works by delivering infrared heat energy deep into the skin. This process tightens loose collagen and promotes new skin growth, resulting in a more youthful and smoother complexion. It can be a great way to improve the appearance of jowls as well as anywhere else there is laxity.
