Bothered By Loose Skin? Consider TempSure®
Does loose skin on your face or body destroy your self-confidence? Unfortunately, sagging skin is a part of the aging process that nobody enjoys, but what can you do? Creams and other home treatments promise to help, but they often don't yield the results you'd like.
If you're tired of looking at loose or saggy skin, you can choose from several nonsurgical and surgical options. Injectables and cosmetic surgery are options, but have you heard about TempSure®?
If you're looking for a way to tighten your skin without needles or surgery, Dr. Anthony N. Dardano offers the TempSure® Envi system, which provides fast and amazing results. Dr. Dardano is a plastic and reconstructive surgery specialist who provides radiofrequency treatments to give you skin and a body you can be proud to show off.
Causes of loose, sagging skin
We all wish our skin would look firm and tight like it does in our twenties, but unfortunately, that's not the case. As you age, your body undergoes many changes, including a decrease in skin elasticity and tightness.
There are many reasons why you may notice your skin becoming wrinkled or crepey and loose, which include:
Decreased elastin and collagen
Elastin and collagen are two essential components of the skin that allow it to remain elastic and firm. Over time, your body produces less of these proteins, causing the skin to become loose and sometimes sag.
Significant weight loss
Losing a significant amount of weight often leads to loose skin, no matter how much you work out. The more weight you lose, the more likely you have loose skin around the body.
Age
Years of sun exposure and the body's normal aging process cause the skin to become less elastic. Skin that doesn't hold its elasticity may look like it hangs off the body.
What is TempSure® Envi?
The TempSure Envi machine is a state-of-the-art radiofrequency energy tool Dr. Dardano utilizes to tighten the face on the skin and other body areas. Some people call it a nonsurgical facelift because of the results it gives.
The advantage of the TempSure Envi machine is that it has multiple handpieces that Dr. Dardano can use all over the body. The radiofrequency energy passes through the handpiece deep into your skin without the need for incisions.
During treatment, Dr. Dardano applies a cooling gel to the area. He then begins moving the handpiece around the area, delivering radiofrequency energy and gentle heat.
The radiofrequency energy heats the skin underneath, but don't worry—you won't overheat. The machine has a temperature monitor to ensure the skin doesn't get too hot.
The gentle RF heat stimulates the cells to produce collagen, which helps firm and tighten the skin. After the 30- to 60-minute treatment, you may notice that your skin already feels tighter because of mild swelling.
The real results start in about a week when collagen production kicks into high gear. It also stimulates elastin, another component of tight and firm skin. Depending on how loose the skin is and your goals, you may require multiple treatments.
How fast can I see results?
The great news about the TempSure system is how fast you can see results. After just one session, you may notice tighter and firmer skin – but it takes more time to produce collagen and elastin.
Generally, it takes several weeks to months to get the full effects of radiofrequency skin tightening. Many factors influence the time, including the area we treated and how loose the skin was before therapy.
Most people see results in six months after one treatment. You may need repeat treatments if you have multiple treatment areas or have extremely loose or saggy skin. However, the results usually last up to three years.
