Non-invasive skin tightening is a broad term for a gentle method of firming and tightening skin. It can be executed in several different ways, all of which are safer and often more effective than surgical procedures.

Many treatments work to tighten skin, from microneedling and chemical peels to more intensive devices such as the Venus Legacy. The treatment you choose depends on the state of your skin, the conditions you want to address, and even your budget.

Choosing the right treatment is just as important as choosing the right provider, however. Especially for more expensive treatments, you want them to be safe and effective. Only a well-trained and educated non-invasive skin tightening treatment provider can offer a top-notch experience. Read on for some tips on how to find a skin-tightening provider in Toronto that works for you.

Important Factors to Consider

There are many factors to consider when choosing an effective skin tightening treatment provider, many of which you may not think of right off the bat. From quality ingredients/devices, to experience and even location, you’ll want to note all of the following:

• Physical location. This is an important factor for many as time and/or transportation may be limited. If you want something in the city, you’ll have fewer options. If you’re willing to travel, you can expand the possibilities.
• Clinic condition. Once you’ve determined a few possible clinics or providers, you should ensure the place is clean, professional, and following all laws and guidelines. Health and safety is a big issue and should be your top priority.
• Provider experience and credentials. If you like the look of a place, you should inquire about the providers they employ and what their experience is like. More experienced technicians may provide a more effective treatment, while newbies and apprentices can be more cost-effective.
• Services offered. The next step is to look at their entire range of services. Even if you’re looking for something specific, it’s good to know that you can get more in one place. You may find yourself needing something else in the future, or your provider may recommend something different once looking at your skin. It’s always nice to have everything you want/need in one place where you’re comfortable.
• Customer reviews. Lastly, always read and consider customer reviews. These can be found on Google and/or their own website, as well as various social media platforms. Ideally, you want reviews to be overwhelmingly positive. It’s important to remember that a small handful of bad reviews isn’t necessarily a bad sign – they could be the result of a misunderstanding, a petty customer, or something similar. To determine what weight bad reviews should hold, read them and consider the specifics. If the good heavily outweighs the bad, this is a good sign.

Choosing a Treatment

A big part of this process is determining what treatments(s) you want and need to receive. Some people are familiar with non-invasive skin-tightening treatments and have a good idea of what they want, but others are new and need some help. Most clinics will be happy to offer advice and guidance, but too many consultations may be overwhelming.

To get you started, consider these things when deciding which skin-tightening treatment may be for you:

• This is a factor because skin changes as you age! Collagen and elastin slow down, fine lines and wrinkles form, and skin becomes dryer and looser. Depending on where you are in this process, you’ll require different treatments. For aging skin, the focus should be on collagen production above many other things.
• Sun damage. Not only can excessive sun exposure accelerate the aging process but it can be an issue for certain treatments. If skin is burned or irritated, many devices won’t be safe until some healing can occur. For example, most devices that use lasers or produce heat aren’t safe for sunburned skin.
• Recovery and downtime. Although non-invasive skin tightening treatments are, overall, gentler and less intensive than surgical procedures, some still require a little time to recover. Alternately, some require none. This can be a factor for those needing to go right back to work/other activities, or those who simply don’t want to worry about things after the fact.
• Skin condition/issues. Some skin-tightening treatments are broad and offer an overall rejuvenating effect. Others are designed to treat specific issues and/or conditions. Knowing what you’re treating and what condition your skin is in can help significantly. This is also something you can speak to a professional about if you’re unsure what you’re dealing with exactly.
• Your goals. Ultimately, you want a skin treatment that aligns with your goals. Do you want to be more glowing? Do you want to refresh your face and reduce acne? Do you want to sculpt and contour your body for an overall firmer appearance? These are important questions to ask as they drastically change the treatment(s) you need.

Even with all of these things in mind, it can still be hard to know exactly what type of treatment you need. But, you can use the knowledge you do have about your skin, your goals, and your limitations to narrow your search.

It can help you rule out certain places that don’t offer what you’re looking for, or place others higher on your list if they offer multiple treatments you know will help you.
