Sagging skin and jawline

From age 25, collagen production drops by about 1% a year. You don't see it day to day. But over 10 years, that's 10% less structure. A blurring jawline, cheeks that drop: it's not ageing, it's loss of tissue.

What happens in the skin.

"Firming" creams nourish the epidermis. Collagen is in the dermis and hypodermis. The collagen molecule is too large to pass through the skin barrier topically: that's physics, not a formulation flaw.

Lutronic's Genius RF delivers radiofrequency at a depth of 2.5 mm through microneedles. The heat targets existing collagen and triggers a repair response that lasts 6 months. HIFU goes even further: it reaches the SMAS at 4.5 mm, the same layer as a surgical facelift, without an incision.

Collagen doesn't pass through the skin. You have to go and get it where it is.

The right treatments

Frequently asked questions

Genius RF

When will I see results?

An improvement from the first session. Collagen production shows a month and a half later, and the result is optimal at 6 months. Then, one maintenance session a year.

Does it hurt?

An anaesthetic cream is applied before the session. You feel slight pressure and warmth.

Is it suitable for dark skin?

Yes. All skin types can be treated, at any age, including Black or Asian skin, which is often harder to treat with lasers.

Are there any after-effects?

Some redness for 48 h, sometimes slight swelling. No burns, scabs or peeling.

HIFU

Does it hurt?

Most people feel slight warmth or tingling during the session, generally well tolerated.

When do you see results?

An improvement may be visible from the first weeks. The optimal result appears in 2 to 3 months, the time it takes collagen to regenerate.

How many sessions?

One or two sessions are often enough for a noticeable result, depending on age, the area treated and the condition of the skin.

Can the body be treated?

Yes: the Utims A3 HIFU also firms sagging areas such as the arms, thighs or abdomen.

  • I've had so many treatments for my scars and it's honestly the first time I've seen a real result. You don't sell dreams, you tell it straight.

  • Day 6: my skin hasn't looked this good in years. My acne has dried up, and there are far fewer marks.
