Cheek Skin Tightening

The firmness of the cheeks is a clear indicator of age. Youthful faces have taut, contoured cheeks that define the cheekbones and shape of the face. When skin loses volume and elasticity, the cheeks can sag and droop, creating heavier jowls, lines and wrinkles. A cheek lift can have an anti-aging effect, restoring a more youthful appearance. At The K Spa, we offer an innovative cheek skin tightening with our advanced skin tightening treatments.

Aging of the face starts in the structure of the skin. As you get older, collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin diminish, allowing the skin to lose its volume and elasticity. Gravity pulls the skin and tissue down, creating lines, wrinkles and sagging. This is very noticeable in the cheek area, with nasolabial lines forming and tissue sagging around the jowls. To combat this aging effect, the skin in the cheek area needs rejuvenation to a more youthful firmness, which can be achieved with radio frequency (RF) energy and microneedling.

Options Available for Skin Tightening for the Cheeks?

At The K Spa, we evaluate your current skin condition and then make the best choice for your cheek skin tightening or cheek skin tightening treatment. One effective option combines microneedling and RF energy to stimulate collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid production in the skin. The system we use has a hand-held applicator that delivers the treatment to the cheek area, heating the skin layers with RF energy along with tiny punctures through microneedling. This produces a healing response without harming the skin, increasing the elements needed to tighten and rejuvenate the skin.

The skin tightening treatment is a non-invasive option to give skin a boost. It only takes one to two hours to perform and can be highly effective for tightening skin in the cheek area. We apply a numbing agent to reduce discomfort during the procedure. After the treatment is completed, you can expect some redness and swelling as you recover over the next several days. In about two weeks, you can begin to notice changes in the appearance of your skin, with maximum results achieved in six to nine months.

Effective Treatment for Sagging Cheeks

Dr. Benjamin Stong is a double-board certified facial plastic surgeon with many years of experience using anti-aging treatments. Although he offers surgical cheek lifts for those needing a more dramatic lifting in the cheek area, he has had incredible success using non-surgical skin tightening treatments with our patients. Some of the benefits that occur as the skin heals after the skin tightening procedure include:

• Thicker, firmer skin
• Fewer lines and wrinkles
• A lifting of skin and tissue in the cheek region
• Fading of scars and skin flaws
• Healthier, more youthful skin and face

What our patients love about the cheek skin tightening is that the results appear gradually and look natural. As hyaluronic acid, elastin and collagen increase, the skin repairs and rejuvenates. The cheek area begins to tighten and lift over time. Friends and family notice that you look younger yet cannot quite figure out why. We have patients who use the cheek skin tightening if they do not want to undergo surgery or as an option to delay a surgical cheek or facelift procedure. The non-surgical skin tightening treatment can be used with many of the other cosmetic procedures we offer at The K Spa to create the more youthful appearance you desire.

If you want to turn back the clock and restore a more youthful elasticity to your cheeks and skin, contact The K Spa to schedule a consultation. You deserve to look your best at any age and you can with our innovative treatment options.
