TITAN™
by CUTERA™ is a revolutionary skin
and collagen tightening system that effectively improves skin looseness and
stimulates long-term collagen rebuilding. Clinical results confirm
improvement in better than 90 percent of the patients treated. When compared
to radio wave thermal technology, TITAN™
has been shown to be at least twice as effective.
The TITAN™ procedure treats
sagging and redundant skin throughout the body including the abdomen and
thighs, and is also used to tone, lift, and tighten the skin on the face.
TITAN™ is without peer as a
treatment for the loose and "crepe'y'" skin often found on older necks and
is very effective for the sagging skin found under upper arms.
Based on infrared energy delivered safely through a sapphire tip,
TITAN™ tightens the skin and
reverses the signs of aging safely, comfortably, and without downtime. The
procedure does not require the use of safety eyewear.

After an initial evaluation of the health of the skin and the underlying
collagen, a thin layer of aloe gel is gently spread on the area to be
treated to facilitate the movement of the treatment head. The area is
treated in dime-sized segments. When the treatment head is applied, the
patient feels an initial cooling and a short heating cycle followed by a
cooling phase. Each cycle lasts approximately six seconds and multiple
passes are typically used. The brow, lower face, and neck can usually be
treated in an hour.
At the conclusion of the treatment, sunscreen is applied. There is no
downtime and no specific after care is required.
Results begin to be apparent by the conclusion of the treatment and
continue to build over the next 12 weeks. Depending upon the individual
patient, best results are sometimes obtained when the procedure is repeated
in four weeks. Skin tightening has been shown to last up to two years. |
