Skin Tightening in Austin | Body Treatment Options
It’s common for patients who have lost a significant amount of weight to experience some loose skin on their legs, arms, abdomen, hips, and buttocks.
B+A Aesthetics offers 2 effective options for skin tightening in Austin. These options can address body skin laxity and help tighten almost any area you’d like to firm up.
Evolve Transform
Evolve Transform is an effective treatment for smoothing and contouring your body post-weight loss.
The device can destroy unwanted fat cells and boost your body’s natural elastin and collagen production.
Why We Love Evolve
Not only can Evolve Transform tighten skin and tone muscle, but it also has a handful of benefits, making it one of our more popular body-tightening options:
It’s Safe for All Skin Types
Evolve Transform is a safe, noninvasive option for patients who want to tighten loose skin and tone their body.
It’s Pain-Free
Evolve Transform requires no downtime. The treatment itself is pain-free, too! You can expect to feel warm sensations and mild muscle contractions during your Evolve session.
It Addresses Multiple Concerns
Evolve Transform is a noninvasive treatment perfect for addressing areas with stubborn, unwanted fat, cellulite, and loose skin. Generally, it can help decrease fat in the treated area by about 30%.
It Treats Many Areas
We can effectively apply Evolve Transform’s applicators to practically any area on the body that can accumulate fat or needs tightening. We use Evolve in the following areas:
- Abdomen
- Arms
- Legs
- Thighs
- Buttocks
- Love handles
- Back
The Evolve Process
During your Evolve Transform appointment, your provider will place the device’s 6 hands-free dual-modality applicators on your body. These applicators emit:
- Bipolar radiofrequency (RF energy), which deeply heats dermal and adipose tissue
- Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) to strengthen and sculpt muscles
Each session lasts anywhere from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on whether you are using the device for skin tightening in Austin, fat reduction, or both. After your session, you don’t have to take any time off work or plan time to rest and recover. You can go back to your routine!
For lasting results, we recommend a series of 6 to 8 treatments. These treatments are designed to provide visible improvements that can last for 4 to 6 months.
Evolve Transform Recovery
While you won’t need to take any time to recover from Evolve Transform, you can follow some steps to speed up your body firming and trimming results:
- Limit or stop alcohol consumption
- Eat healthy foods
- Drink plenty of water
- Regularly moisturize your skin
BodyTite
BodyTite is one of the most effective ways to contour the body and tighten loose skin without extensive plastic surgery.
It is also one of the best longer-lasting fat-reducing and skin-tightening options if you want to smooth your physique after weight loss.
Why We Love BodyTite
Similar to Evolve, we like BodyTite because it’s a minimally invasive option that can help patients “finish” their transformation after significant weight loss.
It’s Longer-Lasting
BodyTite’s results can last for years! It is a more permanent skin-tightening and fat-eliminating option.
It Offers Minimal Downtime
This FDA-cleared treatment uses radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) to firm skin and remove fat at the same time. While patients will need to take some time to recover (approximately 3 to 10 days) and wear compression garments post-procedure, downtime is minimal compared to similar procedures.
It Treats Many Areas
BodyTite can eliminate fat and smooth lax skin in the following areas:
- Abdomen
- Hips
- Buttocks
- Thighs
- Arms
- Knees
- Neck
Minimal Sessions
Most people only need 1 session that lasts 2 to 4 hours. You can choose to have additional sessions that we’ll space 6 to 12 months apart to give your body time to recover and reflect the final results.
The BodyTite Process
BodyTite combines liposuction and skin tightening in the same in-office procedure.
When you come in for your appointment, we will first inject a numbing solution into the treatment area. Once the treatment starts, your provider will place one end of the device under the skin while the other rests on top of the skin. BodyTite emits radiofrequency (RF) between the device’s two ends, stimulating collagen growth and tightening skin to the muscle.
We don’t remove skin during this procedure, but we do remove fat in the treatment area—permanently!
BodyTite Results
While you’ll notice less fat in the treated area immediately, you’ll see enhanced skin-tightening results over time. That’s because it takes about 6 weeks to build collagen. Generally, patients see their final results in 4 to 6 months.
Build Back Muscle
EMSCULPT NEO is a great tool for helping people regain strength as they build back their muscles after bariatric surgery.
EMSCULPT NEO
EMSCULPT NEO harnesses the power of high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology and radiofrequency to contour body areas with unwanted fat while toning muscles. RF energy firms and tightens the skin by boosting your body’s collagen and elastin production.
HIFEM technology can zero in on specific muscle groups, causing ultra-rapid muscle contractions that no exercise regimen could achieve.
Why We Love EMSCULPT
EMSCULPT NEO is a popular option people turn to help them build muscle and achieve greater muscle definition.
It Treats Many Areas
We use EMSCULPT NEO to treat many areas, including:
- Abdomen
- Buttocks
- Thighs
- Calves
- Arms
It’s a Safe Choice
EMSCULPT NEO is a safe treatment option for most patients. However, it’s most effective for people who are already working out but are not seeing the definition they want.
It’s Noninvasive and Painless
EMSCULPT NEO is a painless treatment. During your treatment, our providers will place the device applicators in the area you are treating. All you have to do is sit back and relax.
The EMSCULPT NEO Process
Your provider will apply one of our EMSCULPT NEO applicators to the treatment area; we have different sizes to address different body areas. The treatment process takes about 30 minutes to complete.
EMSCULPT NEO Results
People typically start to see results 2 weeks after their treatment. Results are commonly visible for 6 to 12 months. You can even see longer-lasting results when you combine EMSCULPT NEO with diet and exercise.
Experiencing Facial Volume Loss?
You aren’t alone if you’re also experiencing facial volume loss after having bariatric surgery. Sometimes, when people lose a significant amount of weight, they begin to notice more fine lines and wrinkles on their faces and necks. B+A Aesthetics providers can easily treat this type of volume loss with our suite of dermal fillers.
Dermal Filler Options
Juvederm
We use Juvederm to smooth wrinkles and fine lines. It’s a great filler option for smile lines.
Restylane
Our team loves using Restylane to help add volume! It’s perfect for addressing what some patients describe as a “sunken” look.
Radiesse
Our providers turn to Radiesse when patients want to improve the appearance of moderate-to-severe wrinkles. We can also use this dermal filler to increase volume on the back of your hands.
Belotero Balance
We also use Belotero Balance to address deeper-set wrinkles. It’s also a wonderful option for patients who want to address their nasolabial folds.
Sculptra
Sculptra is unique because it helps stimulate collagen production, providing long-term wrinkle reduction. While it takes a bit longer to see results, it’s an excellent option for people not interested in “filling” an area with lost volume.
Dermal Filler Details
While dermal fillers aren’t designed for skin tightening in Austin, they are a great option for smoothing skin on the face and neck. Regular maintenance allows you to see longer-lasting volume increase and achieve a more youthful appearance.
All of our dermal fillers are FDA-approved and injected by our skilled nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and surgeons. We use a tiny needle, so there’s no scarring and minimal discomfort. Most dermal filler sessions take 20 to 30 minutes, and results last approximately 6 to 12 months.
