TightSculpting is a fantastic and unique laser, it is able to get rid of fat cells through applying heat. The laser is able to heat below the skin’s surface causing the fat cells to die resulting in your body either processing it or eliminating it. In both of these cases you will see a slimmer and firmer treated area post procedure.
With TightSculpting, most patients start to see changes right away, with better results appearing 6 to 12 weeks later. Results can take up to 12 weeks because the laser targets fat cells underneath the skin’s surface.Therefore, the majority of the mechanisms for eliminating fat take place underneath the epidermis.
Due to the non-invasive nature of TightSculpting, this procedure generally does not require any recovery time. There may be some slight swelling or redness after the procedure but that usually dissipates rather quickly within the next few days.
You can generally expect to first feel a slow warming sensation on the treated area, then after a few minutes feel some fleeting hot sensations. Many people compare the feeling to a hot stone massage. Though it’s important to note that each person may experience sensations differently, therefore it’s important to take into consideration your personal tolerance.
The timeframe for TightSculpting appointments are normally anywhere from 30 minutes – 1 hour. It really depends on what you are getting treated and how many areas. To get a proper time estimate, kindly contact us at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic and we can discuss the time frame based on your needs.

Treatments for laser skin tightening often last two years. Depending on a number of variables, including the patient’s age, health, lifestyle, and whether they are undergoing any maintenance therapies, this time frame may be shortened or extended.
