Titan
Non-Surgical face, neck, and whole
body lift
Titan utilizes a safe infrared light
source with a unique wavelength filtering
design to uniformly heat the dermis.
The non-invasive Titan Procedure protects
the epidermis through continuous contact
cooling while the infrared light heats
the deep dermis. No down-time or pain
medication is required. It is a no
ablative,
no surgical lifting procedure which
causes the collagen in the dermis
to contract and tighten. It is not
a laser but it does employ infrared
light to lift and tighten the skin
so that gravity changes are softened,
fine wrinkles are less obvious and
pores are shrunk.
It can be used for tightening skin
over various areas of the body, including
the forehead, the lower face along
the chin line, under the eyes, the
hands, the abdomen, around the knees,
and in some cases the breasts.
How Does the
Titan Skin Tightening Technology Work?
The infrared light travels through
the to the deeper layers of the skin
causing tightening of the collagen
architecture. Because the heat is
applied deep within the skin, some
swelling and redness may be seen.
The procedures takes approximately
one hour.
The results of Titan Skin Tightening
Technology may be seen within a few
weeks of the treatment, however the
full benefits are usually not observed
for three to six months. This is probably
the most difficult part of this procedure
as the effects of the treatment are
not seen immediately.
The advantage of the Titan over the
thermal-lifting techniques is that
the skin and underlying fat is heated
uniformly avoiding differential heating
of the fat; therefore, the risks of
dents and atrophy of the skin is much
less likely.
Is the Titan
Skin Tightening Technology Safe?
The Titan Skin Tightening Technology
is safe. As with any treatment of
the skin, potential complications
can occur. Complications such as,
scar, pigment irregularity, nerve
damage, indentations and burns are
possible, although rare.
What Kind of
Results Can Be Expected?
Some patients see subtle results within
a couple of weeks of the treatment,
however, for most patients the results
gradually appear over a three to six
month period. Patience and realistic
expectations are required. |
