The Beauty of PROFOUND®

As we age, our skin loses elasticity when the skin’s collagen and elastin break down faster than they are rebuilt. This leads to wrinkles and areas of loose, sagging skin. This is most notably over areas of delicate and thin skin, such as the eyes, leading to hooding and making you appear older. Around your mouth and forehead, deep creases develop and the effects of environmental exposure show damaged skin with an uneven appearance.

Skin can begin to sag around the jawline, lips and neck sooner than you’d think. Even the skin covering our bodies can begin to lose resiliency and shape, especially after childbirth or major weight loss. Oftentimes it is loose skin, not fat that creates undesirable bulging and sagging.

The great news is that skin tightening techniques such as PROFOUND® are a proven and effective way of improving the texture, tone and appearance of your skin, especially the face and neck.

Skin tightening is a bit more complex than it sounds. The skin is a living thing, so to achieve tightening and firming, a dynamic approach is best. Thanks to advances in technology and applying the best techniques, skin tightening can be achieved and customized to suit individual needs.

Common Treatment areas for PROFOUND®

The Eyes: Fine lines, brow furrows and skin hooding can make us look tired, aged and worn- down.

The Face: Over time, loose jowls, sagging skin along the neckline and deep lines around the mouth can change the appearance of the face.

The Neck: Aging skin can also affect the skin on our necks, as the effects of gravity, environmental exposure, childbirth and weight loss can lead to sagging and the ‘turkey neck’ affect.
