What is FaceTite Radiofrequency Skin Tightening?
FaceTite is a surgical procedure that is designed to improve the facial skin without the use of highly invasive surgical techniques or injectable fillers. FaceTite uses controlled radiofrequency (RF) energy delivered beneath the skin to tighten loose tissue and stimulate new collagen production, offering many of the contouring benefits of a facelift with a less invasive approach.
The treatment can be used to tighten loose facial skin and neck skin, softening age lines, and can address a double chin and jowls.
Who Are Good Candidates for FaceTite Treatment?
Good candidates are generally men and women with mild to moderate skin laxity who want more noticeable, longer-lasting results than dermal fillers can provide, without the incisions and downtime of a traditional facelift.
What Happens During the FaceTite Procedure?
At the start of the treatment, either local anesthesia or light sedation is administered. This makes for a comfortable and pain-free procedure. The handpiece’s subdermal probe is inserted beneath the skin, and RF energy is then administered to the skin tissues. This radiofrequency-assisted approach is why FaceTite is often described as a minimally invasive alternative to a traditional facelift for patients seeking facial and neck skin tightening in Murray Hill and Manhattan.
What to Expect After Undergoing FaceTite?
After treatment, patients can shortly return to their everyday schedule. A post-treatment compression garment must be worn for a time to control swelling and ensure tighter skin. Once recovery is complete, results look very natural. Because the treatment encourages new collagen growth, results continue to improve over time.
How Much Does FaceTite Cost?
The cost of a FaceTite procedure varies from patient to patient and depends on the individual needs of each person. Cost depends on factors such as the treatment areas addressed, such as the face, neck, or both, the extent of your skin laxity, and the number of sessions recommended for your goals. Dr. Sabry will provide a personalized cost estimate during your consultation.

FaceTite FAQs
What is FaceTite?
FaceTite is a minimally invasive, radiofrequency-based skin tightening procedure that uses a small subdermal probe to deliver controlled RF energy beneath the skin. It stimulates new collagen production and can help reduce stubborn fat, tightening loose facial and neck skin without the incisions of a traditional facelift.
How is FaceTite different from a facelift?
A traditional facelift surgically removes excess skin through larger incisions, while FaceTite uses radiofrequency energy delivered through a small probe to tighten skin and stimulate collagen from beneath the surface. Many patients choose FaceTite because it offers facelift-like improvement with a less invasive treatment and shorter recovery.
How is FaceTite different from dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers add volume to specific areas of the face, while FaceTite tightens loose, sagging skin by stimulating the body’s own collagen production. Patients who want more noticeable, longer-lasting improvement in skin laxity, rather than added volume, are often better candidates for FaceTite than fillers.
What areas of the face and neck can FaceTite treat?
FaceTite is commonly used to tighten loose skin on the face and neck, soften age lines, and improve the appearance of a double chin and jowls. Dr. Sabry will evaluate your skin during a consultation to determine which areas would benefit most.
Am I a good candidate for FaceTite?
Good candidates are generally men and women with mild to moderate facial or neck skin laxity who want noticeable tightening without the incisions and downtime of a traditional facelift. Dr. Sabry will review your goals and skin quality during a consultation to confirm whether FaceTite is right for you.
Is FaceTite painful?
FaceTite is performed under local anesthesia or light sedation, which is intended to make the procedure comfortable. Most patients tolerate the treatment well.
How does FaceTite work?
FaceTite delivers radiofrequency energy through a small subdermal probe inserted beneath the skin. This RF energy heats the deeper tissue to stimulate new collagen production and can also help reduce stubborn fat, gradually tightening and contouring the treated area.
What is recovery like after FaceTite?
Most patients can return to their everyday schedule shortly after treatment. A compression garment is typically worn for a period of time afterward to control swelling and support tighter skin as it heals.
When will I see results from FaceTite?
Results look natural once initial healing is complete, and because FaceTite stimulates new collagen growth, results continue to improve gradually over the following weeks and months.
How long do FaceTite results last?
FaceTite’s results come from newly stimulated collagen and tightened tissue, so many patients enjoy improvement that lasts for a significant period. Individual results vary based on skin quality, age, and lifestyle, and Dr. Sabry can discuss realistic expectations during your consultation.
Can FaceTite be combined with other procedures?
Yes. FaceTite is often combined with other facial rejuvenation treatments to address multiple concerns at once. Dr. Sabry will discuss whether combining procedures makes sense for your goals during your consultation.
Is FaceTite a surgical procedure?
FaceTite is considered a surgical procedure because it involves a small subdermal probe inserted beneath the skin, but it is far less invasive than a traditional facelift and does not require the extensive incisions associated with surgical facelift techniques.
How much does FaceTite cost?
The cost of FaceTite varies from patient to patient and depends on factors such as the areas treated, the extent of skin laxity, and the number of sessions recommended. Dr. Sabry will provide a personalized cost estimate during your consultation.
Does insurance cover FaceTite?
FaceTite is a cosmetic procedure, so it is typically not covered by insurance. Contact Murray Hill Plastic Surgery to discuss payment options.
