How to Tighten Loose Skin After Weight Loss with Venus Legacy

Losing any amount of weight is no small feat – It takes dedication, commitment and strong willpower. However, losing significant amounts of weight can leave behind loose skin. This can be uncomfortable and may make it harder to find clothes that fit and to feel confident in yourself. Our Venus Legacy device is a great option for treating loose skin – both from weight loss and from the natural aging process. It’s a safe, gentle procedure that offers a non-invasive way to tighten loose skin and achieve a more contoured appearance.

What is the Venus Legacy?

Among the various skin-tightening methods out there is the Venus Legacy. It’s one of the most popular and effective options on the market.

This device uses radio frequency technology to heat up fat cells under the skin, effectively destroying them. The body then metabolizes them as necessary and flushes them out, leaving behind a more sculpted appearance on the surface.

The device also uses infrared light to stimulate collagen production underneath the skin. Collagen is crucial to the health, firmness, hydration, and appearance of our skin. As we age, our body naturally produces less of it, and existing collagen breaks down faster.

The device uses a targeted approach for specific areas and is great for use on the face, neck, thighs, arms, buttocks, and abdomen. In addition to stimulating collagen and tightening the skin, it can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and cellulite.

Benefits of Laser Skin Tightening

There are many ways to tighten skin and contour your appearance, so why choose the Venus Legacy? It offers many benefits as a gentle and non-invasive alternative to harmful, risky surgical procedures:

  • Treatments are quick, lasting about 30 minutes on average
  • Full skin tightening restoration can be achieved in about eight treatments
  • The procedure is comfortable and won’t harm the skin in any way
  • The treatment is suitable and safe for all skin tones and colours
  • No extended downtime or recovery is needed

Body Contouring with Venus Legacy

The Venus Legacy device is an excellent treatment for many things, particularly for body contouring and weight loss skin tightening. Loose and saggy skin is common after weight loss, and this is exactly what the Venus Legacy specializes in.

The radiofrequency technology uses heat and laser energy to go deep into the skin’s layers to stimulate collagen and elastin. These are the main proteins responsible for skin firmness and elasticity. This process causes the skin to naturally tighten and lift itself, reducing looseness and restoring plumpness and elasticity. Over time, this creates a much more contoured and sculpted appearance.

Other benefits of body contouring with the Venus Legacy:

  • Skin is smoother and softer
  • The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles is diminished
  • Skin is glowing and more youthful
  • Reverse the signs of aging

What to Expect

The Venus Legacy is a versatile and effective device, but everyone is still different. Your experience will be shaped by things like your skin type, the severity of your issues, your age, and more. Some people may need more or fewer treatments than others to see optimal results, for example.

Here is what you can expect from laser skin tightening treatments:

  • On average, people need six to eight treatments. The exact number you may need can be discussed with your skincare professional before you commit to anything.
  • The treatment is comfortable for most. It feels like a warm massage and we can make adjustments based on your comfort level.
  • Most report seeing visible results after two or three treatments. In some cases, you may be able to see minimal results after the first treatment.
  • There is no real downtime or recovery needed. You can resume regular activities right after your appointment – you can even come to get a treatment on your lunch break from work!
  • Once you’re finished with initial treatments, results can last anywhere from several months to several years. This will depend on your skin type and how your skin ages. Maintenance treatments are recommended every few months to maintain optimal results.

Complementary Treatments

The Venus Legacy is a great way to promote skin tightening, but it’s not the only service we offer!  If you’re looking for a comprehensive approach to body contouring and skin tightening, we can recommend a few additional treatments that complement the Venus Legacy beautifully:

  • Dermal fillers: there are many different types, but this is another gentle procedure that inserts a safe substance under the skin to combat the effects of aging such as wrinkles and fine lines.
  • Facials: there’s nothing like a good facial! At-home facials are great, but nothing beats the service you’ll get at the clinic. We offer a variety of techniques and restorative facial treatments to address many issues.
  • Medical grade peels: our facial peels offer unmatched exfoliation to treat a variety of skin issues. They’re a great precursor to other treatments as they rid the skin of toxins and scrape off dead cells. Our peels can be tailored and adjusted to suit your specific needs, with varying levels of intensity.

These are some of the many things we offer that go well with our skin-tightening treatments. Depending on your specific issues and goals, we may recommend a certain combination of procedures. Feel free to reach out any time with questions or concerns and we’ll offer as much guidance as we can.
