How It Works
FaceTite works by using radiofrequency thermal energy to melt fat and tighten skin. Fat cells are killed at a lower temperature than surrounding skin or tissue cells, so the rest of your body will be fine while the fat cells are permanently destroyed. Meanwhile, the heat from the RF energy stimulates collagen and elastin production, which helps improve and restore the youthful appearance of our skin.
FaceTite differs from other RF facial treatments because it uses suction to remove the destroyed fat rather than waiting for your body to naturally flush it out of your system. This provides immediate toning results that are supported by your newly tightened skin.
Benefits
FaceTite delivers some exceptional benefits to your skin, but these are the main benefits that make FaceTite such a popular treatment.
Painless
We use a local anesthetic to ensure you experience no pain or discomfort. With FaceTite in Westlake, you will be able to rest comfortably while your provider elevates your appearance.
Minimally Invasive
While there are some minimal incisions made to suction the melted fat from your face, FaceTite is much less invasive than surgical procedures like full liposuction.
Lasting Results
Once you’ve achieved your ideal results, you can enjoy them for another 4 to 5 years. With a regular diet, exercise, and a good skincare routine, you can maintain them for even longer.

The FaceTite Process
Step 1: Consultation
At The Well Westlake, we like to take the time to learn about you during your consultation. Your provider will sit with you and ask questions about your aesthetic concerns and medical history. Using this information, you and your provider will then create a customized treatment plan that will best suit your needs.
Step 2: Treatment
For your treatment, your provider will inject your anesthetic and mark the incision spots. Once the incisions are made, a small device with electrodes that delivers radiofrequency will be inserted. This step melts the fat, then a separate cannula is inserted to suction the melted fat and additional fluids caused by the anesthetic. Lastly, the incision points are bandaged and you will be wrapped into your compression garment.
Step 3: Recovery
Most clients can return to their normal daily activities within 48 hours and return to work within 3 to 5 days of getting FaceTite in Westlake. While we have our general aftercare recommendations, your provider will give you specific aftercare instructions to ensure your skin heals properly for amazingly toned and smooth results.
