Freeze Time and Firm Skin, Venus Concept™ Radio Frequency Technology

 Looking to freeze the hands of time and tighten skin at once? In our practice, our superb medical skincare expert, Janice Pastorek, uses Venus Concept's advanced Venus Freeze™ skincare treatment to turn back the hands of time and firm skin.

This treatment is a state-of-the-art multi-polar radio frequency device and uses magnetic pulse energy to minimize the appearance of fat, cellulite, wrinkles and firm and tighten skin. It is an excellent option for patients who wish to firm skin around the neck, jawline, stomach and upper-arm areas. Radio frequency devices deliver energy to dermal/subcutaneous skin, so there is typically no peeling, pigment change or prolonged healing period. Advanced radio frequency energy delivers heat to the undersurface of skin, promoting collagen remodeling and increasing lymphatic drainage. The skin is left feeling firmer, tighter, more appears youthful and smooth. This treatment may be used for non-invasive body contouring and circumferential reduction.The overall aesthetic of the treated area is improved and returned to a more youthful state. 

A multitude of factors can contribute to the sagging appearance of facial or body skin. Changes in weight, changes in the body during or after childbirth, dietary habits, malnutrition, weight loss or gain, lack of exercise and additional lifestyle factors can all contribute to the appearance of unwanted sagging skin and loss of elasticity. The skin on the body and face also tend to naturally lose volume and elasticity over time. These changes can can be aesthetically displeasing to many of our patients, but simple cosmetic treatments can minimize the appearance of sagging skin while reducing fat and tightening the skin. Depending on the treatment area or the degree of lost elasticity, patients may elect to use several courses of treatment over a short timespan. This advanced skincare treatment helps many of our patients feel more comfortable and confident, particularly during summer months when more skin is revealed during outdoor and social activities. Unlike more complex surgical body procedures, this treatment is minimally-invasive, gentle and effective. Most of our patients compare it to a "hot stone massage," and find the treatment painless, effective and easy. A series of treatments, spaced approximately a week apart, can reduce or firm-up your face, neck or body. Advances in radio frequency technology and magnetic pulse energy have made it possible to offer our patients a treatment to freeze the hands of time and firm the skin at once.

We recommend that our patients combine this treatment with a healthy lifestyle, balanced diet and regular exercise regimen with this treatment for optimal, sustainable results. If you would like to tighten skin, minimize the appearance of undesired fat, cellulite, loss of elasticity, and regain lost volume contact our practice today. Janice can help determine the most successful treatment options and offer advanced techniques to turn back the hands of the clock, essentially "freezing the hands of time." In our practice, we wish for all of our patients to feel comfortable and confident during any season of the year, outdoor activities and in any style of clothing. We find that confidence inspires inner and outer beauty and helps patients attain their most beautiful senses of self. While this can be a personal issue for some women, it is not at all uncommon and can be easily corrected for both younger and mature patients. 

In some cases, the skin around the neck and jawline areas develop deep folds and lines or begin to lack distinction between the neck and jawline entirely, in these cases surgical options can be the fastest and most effective methods to consider. A neck lift procedure typically involves removing loose skin and tissue below the chin and jawline. Dr. Pastorek, a double-board certified ENT and facial cosmetic surgeon, can also reduce the appearance of pronounced vertical neck muscle cords. During the procedure, liposuction can be used to remove deeper deposits of fat under the chin. Dr. Pastorek integrates advanced NASA-based lightwave technology to promote healing following suture removal and patients are left with a smooth and youthful aesthetic.
