With over 15 years of experience, Dr. Kevin R. Hanz<\/a> is at the forefront of modern aesthetic procedures regarding facial rejuvenation. While many patients considering facial procedures including facelifts and neck lifts with increasing age, Dr. Hanz has treated these concerns with a minimally invasive procedure, FaceTite. Dr. Hanz sat down with Haute Beauty<\/em> to discuss the new alternative to facelifts and how long results last.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

What is FaceTite?<\/strong><\/h1>\n
FaceTite is a revolutionary technology that represents an alternative to a traditional facelift.\u00a0 In the past, patients have often asked about minimally invasive approaches to tighten skin.\u00a0 Quite honestly, there was very little to offer that truly worked.\u00a0 The FaceTite treatment was FDA approved in January 2017.\u00a0 Having said that, the same technology, the same platform, and the same company have existed in Europe and Canada for approximately 11 years.\u00a0 We have greatly benefited from the expertise and experience of our European and Canadian colleagues.\u00a0 The treatment uses radiofrequency (RF) to achieve skin tightening.\u00a0 At the end of the day, RF is an energy.\u00a0 As such, it heats the tissue.\u00a0 By generating heat just below the skin, we are able to affect the fibrous septa and fascial connection network.\u00a0 This results in a very controlled thermal injury that remodels over time.\u00a0 The device involves both an internal cannula as well as an external component that work in unison.\u00a0 The internal cannula is 1.8 mm.\u00a0 I tell patients that the size of the cannula is similar to an IV.\u00a0 We do not worry about scars associated with IV catheters and patients need not worry about scars with this treatment.\u00a0The procedure is minimally invasive and requires very little downtime.\u00a0 Patients may see some minor swelling for 2-3 days.\u00a0 I typically see very little bruising,\u00a0 Patients are able to resume normal activity in as little as 2-3 days.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

What is the difference between FaceTite and a Facelift?<\/strong><\/h1>\n


\n<\/strong>A traditional facelift is typically performed with general anesthesia or IV sedation.\u00a0 The procedure involves elevating (lifting) the skin and often, deeper tissues to reposition and rejuvenate the cheek, chin and neck.\u00a0 This involves cutting in front of and around the ears to access this anatomy.\u00a0 The procedure may take approximately 4 hours.\u00a0 Patients will have sutures, drains and a formal dressing for the first 2-3 days.\u00a0 When well done, a facelift should be subtle, refined and not apparent.\u00a0 This is accomplished by not relying on the skin, but rather the deeper tissue (SMAS) to support the face.\u00a0 When the skin is used to accomplish the goal, we often see a \"pulled\" or \"windswept\" appearance that is more than apparent.\u00a0Once again, FaceTite offers an alternative to the traditional facelift.\u00a0 FaceTite may be performed without anesthesia and is completed in as little as 45 minutes.<\/p>\n

Who is a candidate for FaceTite?<\/strong><\/h1>\n
The ideal candidate is typically between 40 and 65 years of age.\u00a0 The patient will have minimal to moderate laxity (loose skin) around the jawline and just below the chin.\u00a0 It should be noted that I have performed the procedure on patients younger than 40 who are bothered by these same issues as well as patients over the age of 65.\u00a0 FaceTite may be used on those patients that have had previous plastic surgery and are now experiencing some relaxation of the skin in the lower face and neck.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Are there any recognizable celebrities who\u2019ve had this procedure?<\/strong><\/h1>\n
It would be difficult to say.\u00a0 The treatment is gaining popularity across the country with every passing day.\u00a0 For a celebrity, the ability to define the jawline and tighten the lower face without any significant downtime has to be very appealing.\u00a0 There is no question that this will quickly become a Hollywood staple!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

How long do results last?<\/strong><\/h1>\n
FaceTite typically lasts approximately 5-7 years.\u00a0 A well done, a traditional facelift should last 15 years.\u00a0 I would never discourage a patient from traditional surgery, but some many patients fit the profile of a \"gap patient.\" \u00a0The gap patient is someone who either refuses to go under the knife or simply does not have the degree of aging that may require a bigger surgery.\u00a0 I see these patients every day in my Dallas practice.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
