FaceTite/ AccuTite In Detroit Metro

Introduction

Introduction to FaceTite

Unfortunately, as we age, skin laxity becomes more noticeable and leads to sagging along the jawline, cheeks, and neck. While many’s first instinct is to go for a facelift because it offers the most dramatic improvement, not everyone is ready for surgery or the recovery that comes with it. FaceTite, however, offers a minimally invasive alternative, utilizing radiofrequency energy to tighten the skin, contour the face, and stimulate collagen production. This innovative procedure bridges the gap between injectables and surgical facelifts, delivering long-lasting, natural-looking, youthful results with significantly less downtime. Whether you’re looking to restore youthful definition or prevent early signs of aging, FaceTite offers an advanced solution for firmer, more sculpted skin, available at Dr. Andrew Compton’s practice in the Detroit area.

What is AccuTite?

AccuTite is a smaller, more precise version of FaceTite, designed to target delicate areas that require extra precision, such as the under-eye area, brows, nasolabial folds, and jowls. Like FaceTite, it utilizes radiofrequency energy to tighten the skin and reduce excess fat, but is ideal for patients who require subtle refinement in smaller treatment areas. AccuTite is often combined with FaceTite for a comprehensive facial improvement or used in conjunction with dermal fillers and skin treatments to achieve a more dramatic and youthful appearance.

Who Are the Best Candidates for FaceTite or AccuTite?

FaceTite or AccuTite is great for individuals in the Detroit area and beyond who want to tighten sagging skin and address other signs of aging without undergoing surgery. These treatments are best suited for mild to moderate skin laxity, particularly in areas such as the jawline, neck, and lower face. Additionally, patients who have tried dermal fillers but feel they need a more significant lift often find FaceTite to be the perfect next step.

While results are long-lasting, the best candidates are those with realistic expectations and a commitment to maintaining their skin health with good skincare and lifestyle habits. Dr. Compton can help determine if this is a good option for you.

What Are the Benefits of FaceTite and AccuTite?

Both FaceTite and AccuTite offer non-surgical solutions that serve as alternatives to facelifts, as they can still tighten and contour the skin. Since these treatments utilize radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production, patients can experience firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin over time, with long-term results. This differs from dermal fillers, which are effective for providing volume but do not address sagging skin. Additionally, the results continue to improve for up to a year, and patients appreciate that the procedures involve minimal downtime, with most returning to normal activities within a few days.

What’s the First Step?

If you’re unsure whether options like FaceTite and AccuTite, dermal fillers, or a facelift are the best choices for your specific needs, start by consulting with a professional. Dr. Compton meets with patients in his Troy office to effectively address skin concerns by closely examining the skin, its laxity, and other potential areas of concern to determine the most suitable treatment for each individual. If FaceTite or AccuTite (or a combination of both) is the best option, Dr. Compton will then explain the treatment steps in detail and address any questions or concerns you may have. You’ll then get pre-procedure instructions, and the treatment can be scheduled.

What to Expect on the Day of a FaceTite or AccuTite Treatment

For FaceTite or AccuTite treatment, you’ll arrive at L’Atelier MedSpa, where Dr. Compton and his team will prepare you and ensure your comfort before beginning. This process includes the application of a local anesthetic to provide a pain-free experience. The procedure involves inserting a thin probe beneath the skin, which delivers radiofrequency energy to tighten tissue and stimulate collagen production. This process typically takes between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. Afterward, it’s common to experience some swelling and mild bruising, but these effects typically subside within a few days, and Dr. Compton will leave you with detailed instructions on how to care for your skin in the next few weeks.

FaceTite/AccuTite Recovery

As mentioned, this procedure’s recovery time is minimal, especially compared to traditional treatments like a facelift. You’ll likely feel some minor swelling, redness, or tenderness in the first few days, but this is short-lived, so ice packs or over-the-counter pain relievers can also help. In fact, wearing a compression garment may even be advised for certain areas to help reduce swelling.

While some results are visible immediately, the skin will continue to tighten and improve over the next several months as collagen production increases.

How Much Does FaceTite or AccuTite Cost in Detroit, MI?

The cost of FaceTite or AccuTite in Detroit depends on which treatment you get (or if you combine treatments), the area(s) being treated, facility fees, anesthesia and medication costs, and more. It can range from $3,700 to $9,300 or more, but this highly effective treatment does not require surgery and typically only requires one appointment.

Dr. Compton and his team can break down the cost of your treatment during a consultation and offer financing solutions if you’re interested in alternative payment options.
