Skin Tightening with Titan™ FAQs

What is Titan™™ light therapy? - Titan™ light therapy is an all natural process of creating new collagen growth deep beneath the skin's surface without surgery, downtime or injections. The process is designed to improve skin tone gradually over a three to six month period. The results are a more youthful complexion with less lines, folds, wrinkles or skin looseness. The Titan™ process is most successful in areas of skin laxiscity, such as loose skin on the abdomen, under the chin, jowls, knees, "crow's feet" and back of the arms.

How does the Titan™ process work? - Using a safe, infrared light source with a unique wavelength filtering design delivered through a hand-held device, the dermis is uniformly heated, causing immediate collagen contraction. As the collagen contracts, the skin layers become closer together, causing an overall tightening affect.

What are the advantages of Titan™ over other procedures? - Titan™ uses light energy targeting water on the molecular level because it produces a more uniform distribution of energy for heating the deep dermis. Other energy sources, such as RF or radio frequencies may injure the fat and do not provide the same even energy distribution which may cause dimpling. Titan™ is also a perfect companion to other forms of facial and body rejuvenation therapies.

Who are the best candidates? - Men and women of all ages wanting to improve their appearance have been treated successfully. The procedure is quick, simple and virtually painless, making it an excellent choice for today's busy lifestyle.

How many treatments will I need? - Dr. Dishakjian will discuss your case individually, but many patients have experienced very good results with a single session.

What are the side effects? - Immediately following treatment, you may notice some redness and mild swelling of the treated area which should dissipate within a few hours. During the procedure itself, you may feel a brief heating sensation which may be eleviated by taking a mild pain reliever prior to treatment.
