Treatments
At Derm Artisan, we specialize in full-face lifting with smooth and barbed threads. The smooth threads stimulate collagen production within the skin resulting in gradual skin tightening. These barbed threads produce a subtle yet visible lift within the targeted area. This non-invasive treatment tightens sagging skin naturally with threads. It will pull the skin naturally and lift the face. Threads also combat aging by stimulating the body’s healing response activating large surges of collagen in the treated areas. Collagen is vital for boosting elasticity and resulting in tighter youthful skin. Pricing will be determined upon consultation.
