Laser Treatments
Restore elasticity and firmness with skin tightening treatments that stimulate the production of collagen to helps our patients look and feel younger without surgery.
What Is Skin Tightening?
Even the best skin care regimens are not always enough to combat the effects of aging. Over time, the body produces less collagen, a protein that is essential for the skin’s firm and elastic quality. Without collagen, the skin begins to droop, creating a saggy and sad appearance.
Fortunately, advances in skin care have made way for innovative solutions for the treatment of skin laxity that do not require surgery. At our Encino medical spa we offer skin tightening for individuals with a mild degree of loose, sagging skin who are not ready or simply do not desire to undergo surgical intervention. Our nurses are expertly trained and skilled in several non-surgical skin tightening treatments, including radiofrequency treatment with Venus Versa and collagen induction therapy, both of which can produce noticeable skin-firming improvements safely and efficiently.
Recent statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons reveal that non-surgical skin tightening procedures have been on a steady rise in the last few years. Patients are choosing non-surgical skin tightening for many reasons, including:
- It’s Non-invasive
- No Incisions Are Necessary, Which Means No Scarring
- No Anesthesia Is Involved
- Relatively Minor Side Effects Involved
- Fewer Risks Are Involved Than With Surgical Options
- Downtime And Post-op Discomfort Is Minimal

Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Does It Last?
Results typically last for a minimum of six months, although with ongoing treatments, results are often long-lasting. The effects will continue to improve over the next few months as the skin produces new collagen.
Are There Any Side Effects?
You will have mild redness, and/or swelling, usually not lasting longer than a few hours.
How Does It Work?
The heat from the IPL device also triggers the body’s natural production of collagen, a protein essential for firm, elastic skin. The body will gradually produce more collagen, meaning your results will improve with time.
Is It Safe?
IPL therapy is safe for most skin types. The device can be adjusted to different wavelengths of light to treat various skin imperfections and types. Thanks to Venus Versa’s breakthrough cooling technology, treatment is more comfortable than ever before. The system’s advanced precision also ensures that the surrounding skin is not harmed during treatment. The device can use pulses of many different wavelengths of light, depending on the specific problem.
