Titan

The newest light in the Laser Facelift

The new Titan laser gives you an all natural option to actively turn back the clock on aging skin. Using light energy to stimulate new collagen growth deep beneath your skin's surface, Titan can tighten skin on your face, arms, abdomen, and legs. It's an ideal solution to enhance your youthful and healthy appearance without surgery, recovery time, or injections.

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.

The Titan difference

Titan’s light-based platform provides a more uniform distribution of energy for heating the deep dermis than other energy sources, such as RF (radio frequency).

What areas respond best to the Titan procedure?

Patients have been successfully treated on many areas of the body.  The most common areas treated are the jawline, under the chin, and the abdomen.

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.  Dr. Amy Gregory can advise you if the Titan is right for you.

How many treatments will I need?

Although a single treatment has produced very good results for many patients, it is quite common for patients to have two or three treatments over a few months.  Dr. Gregory will advise you as to the number and frequency of treatments recommended for optimal results.

What do treatments feel like?

With each Titan pulse you will feel a brief heating sensation.  Some patients are more comfortable taking a mild pain reliever beforehand.  Many patients are comfortable without any medication.

When will the results with the Titan Laser procedure be noticeable?

Some patients with minimal degrees of laxity in the face and neck will see results immediately. However, for most patients with more laxity, the results are gradual. Skin and dermal growth, including collagen, takes time so a person can expect to see improvements over a three to six month period as new collagen is formed and the skin tightens.

How Long Does the procedure take?

About an hour, depending on the area being treated.

What happens after treatment with the Titan Laser procedure and are there any side effects?

Generally following the procedure, there is no noticeable difference in the skin, apart from the tightening. Occasionally there can be some slight redness and rarely some mild swelling in treated area. Both should dissipate within a few minutes to a few hours.

Is It FDA Approved?

The Titan treatment used at First Glance is FDA approved.
