Overview

What Is Non-Surgical Skin Tightening?

Non-surgical skin tightening is a non-invasvie treatment that uses radiofrequency energy — often paired with microneedling — to heat deeper layers of skin. This stimulates collagen and elastin production, tightening and strengthening the skin from within.

At Elysium Chicago, we use the Morpheus8™ platform, a state-of-the-art treatment that remodels subdermal fat, firms sagging skin, and enhances your skin’s overall tone and texture. It’s suitable for nearly all skin types and can be used on both the face and body.

Treatment

What You Can Expect

Personalized
Consultation

Your treatment begins with a consultation to assess your skin concerns and determine the areas best suited for skin tightening. We tailor each plan based on your anatomy, skin type, and desired outcomes.

Gentle
Procedure

Depending on the area treated, your session will last between 30–90 minutes. A topical anesthetic is applied to ensure your comfort. The Morpheus8 device gently delivers RF energy through microneedles, targeting deep dermal layers to stimulate collagen regeneration.

Visible
Results

Initial improvements may appear within a few weeks, with full results developing over 2–3 months as collagen rebuilds. Most clients benefit from a series of 2–3 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments may be recommended annually.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many sessions will I need?

Most clients require 2–3 treatments for optimal results, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Your provider will recommend a schedule based on your goals and skin condition.

Can I combine skin tightening with other treatments?

Yes. Skin tightening pairs well with dermal fillers, laser resurfacing, and other nonsurgical options. We’ll create a combination plan that fits your needs.

Is the treatment painful?

Discomfort is minimal. We apply a topical anesthetic prior to your session, and most clients describe the sensation as warm or tingling.

How long do results last?

With proper skin care and lifestyle habits, results can last 1–3 years. Annual touch-ups may be recommended to maintain your results over time.

What kind of aftercare is required?

Avoid sun exposure and harsh skincare for a few days post-treatment. We’ll provide a complete aftercare plan tailored to your skin type and treatment area.
