FACE TITE
FaceTite is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that utilises radio-frequency technology, with the aim to tighten and remodel the face, neck, and jawline. It is specifically designed to target and improve concerns such as jowling, submental fullness (double chin), deep lines, loose skin, and a less defined jawline. By utilising radio-frequency energy, FaceTite offers a non-invasive alternative for individuals seeking facial rejuvenation without the need for invasive surgery.

At Norwest Cosmetic Surgery, we offer a range of cosmetic facial surgeries tailored to meet the specific needs and goals of our patients. All quotes are customised and will be provided during your consultation.
It is important to keep in mind that all surgical and invasive procedures come with inherent risks and potential complications. Before deciding to undergo any such procedure, it is recommended that you seek a second opinion from a qualified healthcare practitioner. This will help ensure that you are well-informed about the potential risks and complications of a procedure.
PROCEDURE
Before undergoing FaceTite treatment at Norwest Cosmetic Surgery, you will have a comprehensive consultation with one of our Doctors. During this consultation, your practitioner will explain the treatment, its mechanics, benefits, costs, as well as potential risks, complications, and the recovery process. You will have the opportunity to discuss your concerns and desired outcomes with your practitioner and your practitioner will devise a customised treatment plan that suits you best.
On the day of your procedure you will attend the clinic, have photos taken, prior to seeing the doctor and going through to have your FaceTite procedure.
Following your FaceTite procedure, the practitioner will finish by applying dressings to the incisions, apply a garment and provide you with post-treatment instructions and schedule your follow up appointment.
RISKS, COMPLICATIONS & RECOVERY
After undergoing FaceTite, there are certain pre & post operative instructions you must follow which include:
Remove dressing within 48 hours. Wear the garment in the evening and while sleeping for at least two weeks or until swelling subsides. Compression garments may not be necessary for small isolated treatment areas after 48 hours.
Cleanse the treated areas gently with mild cleanser after 48 hours. Avoid using drying or irritating facial products for 3 weeks, including Retinol and acids. Do not rub or irritate the area.
Limit physical activity and exposure to excessive heat and UV light for 2 weeks.
Sleep with your head elevated using several pillows or a recliner for at least 2 to 3 days to reduce swelling. Minimise talking and chewing for 48 hours and follow a soft diet during this time.
Makeup can be applied after 72 hours to cover any redness or bruising, avoiding the healing incision points..
Take prescribed pain medication or Panadol for pain relief as instructed. Avoid other pain relievers that can thin the blood and cause bleeding or bruising unless specifically instructed by your primary care doctor.
Avoid alcohol consumption for several days after the procedure, as it can hinder healing and increase the risk of bleeding, crusting, and bruising.
