Q & A
How much does it cost?
That all depends on what you want done. Small areas such as crows feet or an eyebrow lift start as little as $199.00. A complimentary consultation is needed to determine just exactly what we need to do.
How long does it last?
The results we create will last for several years. Most patients come back every 2.5 to 3 years for a "TITAN touch up". Others come back once a year to keep collagen & elastin stimulated to reverse any signs of aging due to cell degeneration.
Is it true you can shrink stretch marks?
Absolutely! we can easily improve any quality of skin through deep infrared heat. Depending on the severity of stretch marks, its often easy to make them disappear completely. A consultation is necessary to evaluate the skin quality, & degree of repair that can be hoped for.
How soon will I see results?
Most patients see results immediatley after one treatment, however, the best results are seen at 6 to 8 weeks once the cells have had time to remodel and multiply. The secret with TITAN is being patient while your body does the repair work following a TITAN treatment.We will review your before and after pictures at 6 weeks. Your results will be amazing!
How does the Cutera Titan work?
Titan utilizes a safe infrared light to heat the dermis well below the skin’s surface. During the procedure, the skin’s top surface (epidermis) is protected through continuous cooling with the Titan handpiece.
What areas respond best to the Titan procedure?
Patients can be successfully treated on any area of the body. The most common areas being the jowls, jawline, and loose sagging necks. Treating stretch marks is becoming increasingly popular as well.
Who can be treated?
Since the Titan procedure heats tissue under the skin’s surface, patients of any skin type or age can be treated. Your technician will be happy to advise you if the tighten is the right choice for your problem area.
How many treatments will I need?
Although one single treatment produces very good results for most patients, quite often patients love the new quality their skin so much that they want it done again just for the extra added benefit.Our tecnnician will advise you at your consultation as to what treatment she recommends for optimal results in what you wish to achieve.
What happens after the treatment?
Immediately following the treatment, you may notice some redness and mild swelling in the treated area. Both should dissipate within a few hours. Consult with our technician about the benefits of treatment, and to see if the TITAN is the right solution for your skin.
What do treatments feel like?
With each TITAN pulse you will feel a brief heating sensation. Each pulse is approximately 8 seconds and feels cold, then warm, then cold. This three step process ensures there is no damage done to the outer layer of the skin. Our technician will be happy to educate you.
