About Laser Skin Tightening

Laser skin tightening is a minimally invasive and non-surgical process, which is done using a laser to tighten the skin. This is done with the laser heating the collagen under the skins surface that causes for the skin to tighten. Laser skin tightening is performed to reduce fine lines, wrinkles and skin laxity. Laser skin tightening is a completely safe and effective treatment for patients to achieve a firmer appearance. Laser skin tightening treatment encourages the growth of new collagen in the areas that are treated. With the new growing collagens patients are able to notice a smoother and softer skin straight away after the treatment, which carry on to improve over the next few months after the treatment.
