What is non-surgical skin tightening?

Non-surgical skin tightening at Trussville Urgent Care uses ALMA Harmony laser energy to stimulate new cell growth, naturally tightening treated skin. This cutting-edge laser can also remove tattoos and unwanted facial or body hair, effectively treating all skin and hair types (including red and light-colored hair).

What does skin tightening do?

Skin tightening a Trussville Urgent Care offers the following advantages:

• Tighter, smoother skin

Non-surgical skin tightening provides superior anti-aging outcomes without discomfort, surgery, or downtime.

Is skin tightening right for me?

To determine if you’re a candidate for non-surgical skin tightening, a Trussville Urgent Care specialist discusses your cosmetic goals, examines your skin, and reviews your medical history. They tailor a treatment plan based on your individualized needs and let you know what to expect during treatment.

To prepare for non-surgical skin tightening, avoid tanning beds and unprotected sun exposure before your scheduled appointment. 

What happens during skin tightening?

During skin tightening with ALMA Harmony laser technology, your provider cleans your skin, numbs it to optimize comfort, and uses a specialized device to emit laser energy at and beneath the skin’s surface, without damaging the surrounding tissues. You can wear glasses to protect your eyes from the laser.

Each treatment may last 20-30 minutes, though each patient’s needs are unique. The time it takes to complete the procedure depends on the size of the areas treated.

What can I expect after my treatment?

You can return to typical daily activities after undergoing non-surgical skin tightening sessions at Trussville Urgent Care, as there’s no downtime. However, treated skin may be temporarily tender, red, or swollen.

The Trussville Urgent Care team lets you know when to return to the office to repeat skin tightening treatments to maximize the results. Protect your skin from the sun, keep your skin hydrated and nourished, and adopt healthy lifestyle habits.
