FaceTite in London — Performed by Dr Sultan
FaceTite is a minimally invasive procedure designed to tighten skin and contour the lower face and neck using radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL). When performed correctly, it can improve jawline definition and reduce mild to moderate skin laxity without the downtime of a surgical facelift.
Dr Sultan’s approach:
FaceTite is often marketed as a simple tightening treatment. In practice, outcomes depend heavily on technique—specifically depth of treatment, temperature control, and vectoring. Dr Sultan applies a surgical understanding of facial anatomy to optimise these variables, aiming for controlled tissue contraction rather than superficial heating.
What it treats:
Early jowling
Jawline softening
Submental fullness
Mild to moderate neck laxity
What it does not replace:
FaceTite does not replicate the results of a surgical facelift. Patients with significant skin excess or advanced ageing may be better suited to surgical options.
Procedure overview:
Performed under local anaesthetic, FaceTite uses a bipolar RF device to deliver controlled heat beneath the skin. This results in fat coagulation and dermal contraction.
Risks and considerations:
As with any energy-based treatment, risks include contour irregularities, nerve irritation, and suboptimal tightening if incorrectly performed. Careful technique and patient selection are essential.
Consultation:
Each consultation focuses on whether FaceTite is appropriate—or whether alternatives such as Morpheus8, injectables, or surgical lifting would produce a better outcome.
