Sciton Profile has introduced the skin tightening (ST) module on its BBL (broad band light or intense pulsed light) machine. Skin Tightening reduces one’s appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
The Role of Collagen: Collagen is a protein molecule that is found in the skin, muscles, tendons and bones and provides basic structural support. With age, collagen is gradually lost in the mid-layers of the skin causing deterioration and deflation, causing facial lines, sagging and wrinkles.
There are all kinds of modalities on the market to stimulate collagen production by putting heat into the tissues. IPL, BBL, Thermage, Titan and ST to name a few. None of these skin rejuvenation treatments are a replacement for a surgical face lift but these procedures definitely help, especially in early stages of skin aging.
ST’s prolonged heating action penetrates to the collagen and causes it to contract and tightens it. New collagen production is triggered over the following six months. Besides the initial tightening, the full impact will be seen over the next two to six months because new collagen is still being produced.

Before

After
The light penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin (dermis) where collagen production occurs. The heating of the collagen causes it to remodel itself. Histology slides show that the remodelling begins at approximately 6 weeks. While some clients have felt a change in texture after one treatment, results may take up to 6 months to see.
Most guests should plan on five treatments at three to four week intervals.
Most guests would describe it as a warm, tingling sensation and not painful. No topical anesthesia or medication is required. These are gradual, relatively painless, fast treatments.
The skin may be pink or slightly red. There may be some mild swelling and temporary tenderness along the jaw line. You may be quite red after your treatment, however we give all of our guests a Colorescience application so you never leave looking like you have had a treatment.
Each session takes approx. 20-30 minutes depending on the area.
Anywhere on the body with loose skin.
Skin Tightening can be combined with many other procedures like BBL for photo damage, Botox®, acne treatments, microneedling and injectable fillers.
