TREAT ANY AREA FOR A MORE YOUTHFUL APPEARANCE
As we age, skin loses its youthful firmness and cushion. Especially around the jawline and neck, it can add years to your appearance. And while no one escapes the forces of aging and gravity, SkinTyte can defend against them.
SkinTyte uses advanced infrared light to deeply heat your skin while cooling and protecting the entire treated surface. Light energy is delivered in rapid, gentle pulses to initiate the body’s natural healing process, which leads to the appearance of increased skin firmness.
SkinTyte can treat most areas of the body where improvement is desired, giving you the appearance of firmer, youthful looking skin.
SkinTyte is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses broadband light technology to improve skin firmness and elasticity. This laser skin tightening procedure in Los Gatos, CA, works by delivering infrared light energy to the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production. The heat from the light energy causes the collagen to contract and tighten, resulting in firmer, smoother skin. SkinTyte can treat various body areas, including the face, neck, abdomen, arms, and thighs.
SkinTyte in Los Gatos, CA, is suitable for individuals of all skin types who want to address mild to moderate skin laxity without surgery. Most patients see gradual improvements in their skin’s appearance over several months following treatment, with optimal results typically visible after 3-6 months. The effects of SkinTyte can last for years if proper skin care and maintenance treatments are used.

FAQ's
SkinTyte is suitable for adults of all ages and skin types who have mild to moderate skin laxity and want to improve their skin’s firmness without surgery. It’s particularly effective for those noticing early signs of aging or skin sagging. However, individuals with severe skin laxity may require more aggressive treatments. Consult a qualified provider to determine if SkinTyte is right for you.
SkinTyte results develop gradually over time as your body produces new collagen. Some patients may notice initial improvements in skin tightness within a few weeks after treatment. However, optimal results typically become visible after 3-6 months following a series of treatments. The number of treatments needed varies depending on individual factors and treatment goals.
Age, skin condition, and lifestyle can affect the longevity of SkinTyte results. Patients often choose to maintain their results with annual maintenance treatments. Practicing good skin care, avoiding sun damage, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can also prolong the effects of SkinTyte.
SkinTyte is a no-downtime procedure, allowing patients to return to normal activities immediately after treatment. A few hours after treatment, some patients may experience temporary redness, mild swelling, or warmth in the treated area. Serious side effects are rare when a qualified professional performs the treatment.
Before SkinTyte treatment, avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least 2 weeks. On the day of treatment, come with clean skin free of makeup, lotions, or creams. After treatment, you can resume normal activities, but be sure to use gentle skincare products and protect your skin from the sun. Your provider will give you specific pre- and post-treatment instructions tailored to your needs.
During a SkinTyte treatment, you’ll be comfortably positioned, and protective eyewear will be provided. The treatment device will be moved over the target area, delivering pulses of infrared light energy. Most patients find the procedure comfortable, although they may feel a warming sensation as the energy is delivered. A typical session lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the treated area. There’s no need for anesthesia or numbing agents, so you can resume your normal activities right away.
