In general, a PrecisionTx&#; laser neck lift provides long-lasting results! This treatment cannot stop the aging process, so skin will continue to sag over time, and you could develop new chin and fat deposits. Having said that, it&#;s reasonable to expect several years of tighter neck contours, and some people have found that the results persist for the long-term when they maintain a stable body weight.
Here are a few tips for protecting those great results:
There is also some degree of genes and family history at play when it comes to how our skin sags and ages. While there may not be much you can do about that, you can ask Dr. Jean about this innovative, non-invasive laser treatment to reduce excess neck fat and tighten the skin.
A laser neck lift is ideal for mild to moderate skin sagging. While it cannot provide the same level of skin tightening and lasting results as a surgical neck lift, it is a really good option for people who are looking for an effective non-surgical lift. The results speak for themselves. With a relatively fast procedure, with no need for anesthesia, the neck contour will be sharper and better defined after a single treatment session. The only way to know if it is a good match for your goals is to talk to Dr. Jean.

yacobchuk/Getty ImagesLaser skin tightening is a non-surgical and minimally invasive way to firm skin on the body. The procedure is not particularly painful. Although it can be done anywhere on the body, frequent areas include the:
The laser gets very hot, though it&#;s still tolerable on the skin, and it stimulates the skin to make more collagen and elastin, resulting in firmer, less crepey skin that looks tighter.
It works best for people between the ages of 30 and 65, and even people who do not yet have noticeable sagging may find it preventive. If your skin is very lax, surgery may be a better option.
Laser skin tightening will not be covered by insurance because it&#;s an elective cosmetic procedure. There&#;s little to no downtime, so you shouldn&#;t need to take much time off from work aside from the actual appointment, which is typically under an hour and a half.
One session of laser skin tightening typically costs $600 to $1,000, and you will likely need three to six sessions spaced about a month apart.
As the name suggests, laser skin tightening works by using an infrared light laser to penetrate beneath the skin. The laser is hot &#; about the same temperature as a hot stone massage &#; and it heats up the collagen under the skin, causing the collagen to constrict and the skin to look firmer.
Although not technically lasers, radiofrequency and ultrasound technology are often used for skin tightening as well.

There are different types of skin tightening, and while they&#;re all similar, there are some differences to know about:
For all three, the procedure is similar. You will sit in the office and may be asked to wear goggles. The laser beam will feel hot on your skin, and you may feel discomfort, but it shouldn&#;t be painful.
Depending on how big of an area you are having treated, the procedure should take between 30 and 90 minutes.
Laser skin tightening can be done anywhere there is loose skin, but commonly it&#;s used on the stomach, neck, and face where skin often becomes loose or saggy.
Laser skin tightening is generally considered safe, and it comes with fewer risks than a surgical face lift or other cosmetic surgeries. It&#;s also significantly less effective than a surgical face lift. The procedure should only be done by a cosmetic dermatologist or a highly trained and experienced skin care professional.
If you have skin cancer or are taking prescription acne medication, talk with your doctor. Pregnant women should not have laser skin tightening. Side effects are rare and may include:
You should see some skin tightening immediately after the first laser skin tightening procedure. The results will get more pronounced with each subsequent treatment.
Because no incisions are made &#; the entire procedure is done with a laser &#; you will not need much recovery time. You may see some minor swelling or redness for a few days after the procedure, which is normal and should resolve on its own.
The results are not permanent but can last for several years. You&#;ll likely need to have occasional maintenance appointments.
It&#;s helpful to see before and after photos from real people who&#;ve had laser skin tightening to decide if the procedure is right for you and your skin. Below you&#;ll find some before and after pictures.
Wear sunscreen daily in the weeks leading up to the skin tightening procedure, especially if you&#;re getting it done on your face or neck. Avoid facial peels and chemical treatments in the month prior, and come to the appointment with bare skin, which means no makeup or skincare products.
You may want to meet with the dermatologist before your procedure to talk about your desired results, what to expect, and to see before and after photos of real clients.
