As the years go on, your body produces less and less collagen and elastin—two vital proteins responsible for the structure of your skin. With less of collagen and elastin, your skin is more susceptible to sagging, laxity, and wrinkle formation. The best way to rebuild this structure and firm skin non-surgically is to build up collagen and elastin from within! At I AM Medical Spas, we provide Laser skin tightening in Troy to do just that.
Minimally invasive laser skin tightening requires little to no recovery time. The increased temperature causes collagen to contract, giving the appearance of tighter, firmer, and less crepey skin. As a result, the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production is boosted.
