Finally, you can achieve a smoother neck, raised cheeks, tightened jowls, and reduced nasal-labial folds without surgery. Just ask our patients!
What is Facetite?
- Utilizing radiofrequency waves and heat, skin is tightened from within the dermis.
- Treatment is performed under local anesthesia, with or without conscious sedation, in the office.
- Small needle-sized insertion points that heal without stiches.
- Procedure takes about one hour and is well-tolerated by most patients with little or no discomfort after the procedure.
- Improvements can be seen immediately and will improve over 3-6 months as new collagen forms.

Is it safe?
Facetite is one of the industry’s safest and most advanced facial rejuvenation and skin contouring procedures. The technology is similar to the radiofrequency used in MRIs which have been safely performed for many years. Facetite uses this technology specifically to treat delicate areas without cellular damage to tissues. Equipped with heat-monitoring devices which constantly monitor, record and control skin temperature, you can rest assured that Facetite was designed with equal consideration to safety and efficacy.

Every Patient is a VIP
From your first consultation through your last follow-up visit, you will see Dr. Kirwan himself at every single appointment. He will be available to you before, during and after your procedure.

How Effective is Facetite?
- Most patients see a 40% improvement in the tightness of their skin
- Fatty deposits around the neck and jowl areas can be further improved with simultaneous
liposuction of those areas - Clinical studies indicate that results equal those of a surgical mini-facelift
- Facetite can be combined with other procedures such as fat injections and Morpheus8 at the same time to correct volume loss and improve surface concerns like fine wrinkles, large pores and poor skin texture for a truly dramatic transformation

Prices
The cost of Facetite is typically less than half of a traditional facelift, depending on the number of areas to be treated and the severity of laxity to be addressed. Like all procedures we offer, attractive financing can be arranged to make the cost more manageable.
Recovery
Recovery time is minimal. Swelling and redness should be expected, and typically subsides in 24-72 hours. Tenderness may last for 5-7 days, but post-pain procedure is minimal and managed with over-the-counter medication. Some patients experience bruising which can be covered with make-up. Prior to treatment, Dr Kirwan and his staff will explain any limitations to physical activity, but it’s typically safe to resume normal activity within a few days.
