treatments
At The Spa MD, you can choose from a broad range of the latest, most effective skin tightening treatments available.
ClearLift™
Clearlift uses nonablative photoacoustic technology to stimulate regeneration in your skin. These treatments are extremely comfortable, take around 30 minutes or less. Plus, it comes with no downtime.
Clearlift can be used on your face, neck, decollete, arms, hands, and knees. Four treatment sessions are recommended for the best results.
CO2 Laser Resurfacing
This ablative treatment comes with more downtime than ClearLift™, but it can deliver even more dramatic skin tightening results. CO2 laser resurfacing is a non-surgical ablative treatment for aging skin concerns, from deep wrinkles to fine lines and uneven skin tone and texture. It helps to restore a youthful appearance.
Microneedling
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves creating tiny punctures or microchannels in the skin. These microchannels stimulate the body’s natural healing process, leading to the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for skin rejuvenation, resulting in improved skin texture, firmness, and overall appearance.
Microneedling can be used to address various skin concerns, including:
- Acne scars
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Uneven skin tone
- Hyperpigmentation
- Stretch marks
- Enlarged pores
Prior to the treatment, a numbing cream will be applied to minimize any discomfort. After the procedure, the skin may appear red and slightly swollen, similar to a mild sunburn, but these effects usually subside within a few hours to a few days.
Multiple sessions of microneedling may be recommended to achieve the desired results, with a few weeks interval between each session. It is important to follow post-treatment care instructions.
Microplasma Peel
Micro Plasma Peel
This treatment uses radiofrequency and oxidized plasma to create controlled micro-injuries on the surface of the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing process, leading to the production of collagen and elastin, which can improve skin texture, tighten sagging skin, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and scars.
During a micro plasma peel treatment, the device emits a small plasma discharge onto the skin using the plasma glide tip. This creates tiny dots or patterns on the skin’s surface, which trigger the skin’s natural rejuvenation process.
The treatment can be performed on various areas of the face and body, including the eyelids, neck, and hands.
After the procedure, the skin may appear red and slightly swollen, and small scabs or crusts may form on the treated areas. These typically heal within a week or two, revealing smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
It is important to follow post-treatment care instructions provided to ensure proper healing and optimize results.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Treatment
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to target specific skin concerns and improve overall skin appearance.
IPL is commonly used for:
- Hair removal
- Treatment of pigmentation issues like sunspots and freckles
- Reduction of acne and acne scars
- Rejuvenation of the skin
IPL treatments are relatively quick and may require multiple sessions for optimal results, depending on the specific skin concern being addressed.

Skin Tightening Q & A
What is skin tightening?
Skin tightening refers to a number of aesthetic treatments that aim to deliver tighter, firmer, and smoother-looking skin, helping you look younger and more radiant. Skin tightening treatments generally all work the same, triggering your skin’s regenerative processes so it will create new collagen. Collagen is the protein that serves as a scaffolding for your skin, helping it stay taut and smooth. As you age, your body produces less collagen. With skin tightening treatments, you have a way to turn back the clock and restart your skin’s natural process. These treatments are an ideal way to reclaim your youthfulness without surgery or its associated downtime.
What should I expect during and after skin tightening?
It depends on the skin tightening treatment you choose. Talk with Samantha or Jennett at The Spa MD about your skin goals and they can help you choose the right option for your skin. They’ll let you know what to expect during and after your treatment. Usually, you’ll see the best results with a series of skin tightening treatments. If you’re ready to get tighter, younger-looking skin, call The Spa MD or book an appointment online today.
