TightSculpting™ is a non-invasive laser treatment performed by Dr. Charles Lively for patients from Odessa, Midland, and West Texas. It combines two procedures in one for sculpting and skin tightening on all body areas. A laser gently and safely heats the target tissues remodeling, and rejuvenating the surrounding tissue. At the same time the laser tightens the skin by generating new collagen, resulting in an overall improvement of contour laxity and elasticity in the treated areas.
TightSculpting is a unique, non-invasive treatment that combines two procedures in one, skin tightening, and sculpting. To achieve the same results as TightSculpting, other treatments require you to undergo two separate procedures, one to target specific tissue**, with patients waiting months for results and another later on to tighten the skin. This extends the time it takes to achieve your ideal shape. With TightSculpting, these procedures are combined to give you quicker, more immediate results.
Each person is different but you can expect minimal to no discomfort during the treatment. Immediately following treatment, you may experience some redness or minor swelling that will diminish after a few hours. You can resume your daily activities immediately following the treatment, if you elect to have a more aggressive treatment, you may experience a day or two of redness.
The laser safely and rapidly heats up your skin, targeting its energy to the level beneath your skin tightening and rejuvenating the area.
The first part of the treatment consists of deep heating over the desired treatment area. Initially you may feel a gradual warming and after a few minutes you may experience some very brief hot sensations in the treatment area. The overall sensation can be similar to a hot stone massage or a dry sauna. The second part involves more superficial heating. Depending on the treatment area, the heat generated is slightly more intense but still very tolerable. Post treatment your skin will feel warm to the touch and may be pink or even red for a day or two.
Results will vary with every individual. Most patients will see immediate tightening followed by a gradual change in contour as your newly refreshed skin tightens. Depending on your desired results, you may require multiple treatments.
*If you elect to have a more aggressive treatment, you may experience a day or two of redness
