Professional Non-Surgical Skin Tightening in Glendale

Turn Back the Clock on Sagging Skin
We get it - looking in the mirror and noticing loose skin around your jawline, neck, or other areas can be disheartening. Maybe you’re seeing jowls that weren’t there before, or your skin just doesn’t bounce back like it used to. The good news? You don’t need to go under the knife to get your skin’s firmness back.
At Fix Med Spa, we help patients regain their confidence with non-surgical skin tightening treatments that actually work. Using advanced radiofrequency and ultrasound technology, we can help tighten loose skin, smooth out sagging areas, and restore that youthful contour you remember - all without surgery, scars, or lengthy recovery time.
The best part? You’ll start looking more refreshed and lifted, but in a natural way that has people saying “you look great!” rather than “did you have work done?”
How We Tighten Your Skin Without Surgery
Here’s what’s happening beneath the surface: as we age, our body produces less collagen and elastin - the proteins that keep our skin firm and bouncy. Our treatments work by gently heating the deeper layers of your skin, which triggers your body to start making new collagen again. Think of it as waking up your skin’s natural repair system.
We use two different technologies depending on what’s best for your skin:
Radiofrequency (Sublime™) - This treatment uses controlled heat to stimulate collagen production in the deeper layers of your skin. The device has built-in cooling to keep you comfortable while the radiofrequency energy gets to work tightening and firming from within.
Ultrasound (Ultherapy®) - For deeper lifting, we can use focused ultrasound energy that targets the same layers plastic surgeons work with during facelifts, but without any cutting. This technology actually lets us see the layers we’re treating in real-time, so we can be incredibly precise about where we’re delivering the tightening energy.
Most of our patients start noticing subtle improvements within a few weeks, with the best results showing up over 3-6 months as your body builds new collagen. The results can last 1-2 years, and many patients find that regular maintenance treatments help them stay ahead of the aging process.
What to Expect During Your Visit
Your Consultation
We’ll start by talking through your concerns and goals. Are you bothered by loose skin under your chin? Sagging around your jawline? Lines on your neck? Our medical team will examine your skin and recommend the best approach for your specific needs. We’ll also take photos so you can see your progress over time.
During Your Treatment
The experience is much more comfortable than you might expect. You’ll feel some warmth as we move the device over your treatment areas - think of it like a heating pad that’s working at just the right temperature. Some patients describe it as a warm massage with occasional deeper warmth that comes and goes.
Most treatments take 30-90 minutes depending on how many areas we’re treating. The great news? There’s no downtime afterward - you can go straight back to your normal activities.
Getting Ready for Your Treatment
To help you get the best results from your skin tightening session:
- Skip the sun for a couple weeks beforehand - tanned or sunburned skin needs time to heal first
- Stop using retinoids about a week before your appointment - they can make your skin more sensitive
- Come with clean skin - no makeup, lotions, or perfumes on treatment day
- Stay well-hydrated - this helps the treatment work more effectively
- Let us know about any facial implants or medical devices - we need to adjust our treatment accordingly
- Take ibuprofen beforehand if you’re concerned about comfort - though most patients find the treatment quite tolerable
Caring for Your Skin Afterward
Your skin might look a little pink right after treatment - like you’ve had a gentle workout. This usually fades within a few hours, and most people can go right back to their day.
Here’s how to take care of your newly treated skin:
- Use gentle products for the first few days - think mild cleanser and a good moisturizer
- Sunscreen is your best friend - your skin will be a bit more sensitive, so SPF 30+ is essential
- Skip the hot yoga for about 72 hours - extreme heat isn’t great for your healing skin
- Be patient with results - your skin is busy rebuilding collagen, which takes time
- Stay hydrated - it helps the healing and collagen-building process
- Book your follow-up - most patients need 3-6 sessions for optimal results
Is This Treatment Right for You?
We want to make sure skin tightening is the best fit for your goals and skin type:
This treatment works great if you have:
- Mild to moderate skin sagging (think early jowls, not advanced drooping)
- Good overall skin quality
- Realistic expectations about gradual, natural-looking improvements
- Patience for results that develop over several months
We might suggest other options if:
- You’re pregnant or nursing - we’ll wait until after this special time
- You have active skin infections - let’s clear those up first
- You have certain medical implants - we’ll need to discuss your specific situation
- You have very loose, severely sagging skin - surgical options might be more effective
The honest truth? Non-surgical tightening works beautifully for maintenance and mild-to-moderate concerns. If you’re looking for dramatic lifting results, we’ll have an honest conversation about whether surgical options might better meet your goals.
