A captivating smile is not just about the appearance of your teeth; it’s also about the foundation that supports them. As we age, changes in facial structure and skin laxity can affect the way our smiles look. Intraoral tightening, a non-invasive and innovative procedure, offers a solution to enhance your smile from the inside out.
Intraoral laser tightening, also known as intraoral laser lifting, is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the lower face’s appearance, including the smile area. Unlike traditional facelifts, which primarily target the skin’s surface, this innovative technique concentrates on the deeper tissues and muscles within the oral cavity. By stimulating collagen production and tightening these foundational structures, intraoral laser tightening can rejuvenate and transform your smile.
How Intraoral Laser Tightening Works
Intraoral tightening works by going on the inside of the mouth, and tightening the buccal mucosa, working its way up under the philtrum, and then back down to the inside mucosa of the lower lip. This firming of the interior tissues allows a different approach at plumping and tightening the skin. The intraoral tightening procedure is treated with the Erbium laser, which uses an ablative/non-ablative component to safely heat the tissue inside the mouth without causing harmful damage.
As the intraoral mucosa is known to heal faster, results are noticed virtually instantaneously. With this treatment, no pain should be experienced, but a light prickle-like sensation should be felt. To some clients this sensation is strange as heat and discomfort is usually expected with laser treatments.
Benefits of Intraoral Laser Tightening
Intraoral laser tightening offers a range of remarkable benefits for those seeking facial rejuvenation and smile enhancement:
- Non-Invasive: This procedure is minimally invasive, meaning there are no visible incisions or scarring on the skin’s surface.
- Natural-Looking Results: Intraoral laser tightening enhances your smile while maintaining your natural facial expressions and features.
- Swift Recovery: Downtime is minimal, and most individuals can return to their regular routines shortly after the procedure.
- Youthful Smile: The treatment addresses concerns like sagging jowls, marionette lines, and a downturned mouth, creating a more youthful and confident appearance.
- Personalized Approach: Intraoral laser tightening is customized to your unique concerns and objectives, ensuring tailored and natural-looking results.
Treatment series are recommended anywhere between 4-5 sessions spaced approximately 3-4 weeks apart. However, this treatment can be continued as often as it permits, and does not require any breaks! Clients have virtually no post-care instructions, however staying hydrated and drinking lots of water is highly recommended in order to help keep the tissues nourished and moist for proper healing.
The Intraoral tightening procedure does not target color within the tissue, and therefore clients from all ranges on the Fitzpatrick scale are able to receive this treatment safely without concern of potential adverse effects. This treatment is blind to age as well, and therefore clients ranging all ages and demographics are able to consistently choose this treatment for their anti-aging needs. Intraoral tightening techniques offer a discreet yet powerful approach to rejuvenating your appearance.
