Is a FaceTite/AcuTite Painful?

Fillers can also complement the procedure by adding volume to areas like the cheeks or under the eyes, creating a more sculpted, youthful look overall.

What is a FaceTite/AcuTite?

FaceTite and AccuTite are treatments that use radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) to tighten skin, reduce fat, and contour the face and neck without surgery.

FaceTite is designed for larger areas, such as the lower face, jawline, and neck. It delivers powerful skin tightening and fat reduction with minimal downtime.
AccuTite is a smaller, more precise version of FaceTite, ideal for delicate areas like the brows, under the eyes, nasolabial folds, and even small pockets of fat in the lower face.

Both treatments work by delivering controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin, stimulating collagen production while melting fat, resulting in a firmer, more youthful appearance. The results are long-lasting and continue to improve for several months as collagen rebuilds, making these treatments a great alternative for those looking to enhance their features without traditional surgery.

What’s the
First Step?

The first step is to schedule a consultation at Gentle Plastic Surgery at either our Youngstown or Akron office to discuss your goals and determine whether FaceTite or AccuTite is right for you. We will evaluate your skin and explain how these treatments can help you achieve a more youthful, contoured look. We will also answer any questions you have. Once you’re comfortable and ready to proceed, your journey toward tighter, more rejuvenated skin begins!

What to Expect
on the Day of a
a FaceTite/AcuTite Treatment

During your FaceTite or AccuTite treatment, Dr. Gentile will carefully insert a small, thin probe through tiny incisions in the treatment area. FaceTite is typically used for larger areas like the neck or jawline, while AccuTite is used for more delicate areas like under the eyes or along the brows.

After the probe is in place, radiofrequency energy is delivered beneath the skin. You’ll feel a warming sensation as the energy tightens the skin and melts small fat deposits. The device simultaneously cools the skin’s surface to protect it while the deeper layers are being treated. This combination of heat and cooling helps stimulate collagen production, which will continue to improve skin texture and tone in the weeks to come.

FaceTite/AcuTite Recovery

You can expect swelling and bruising, especially in areas like the jawline, neck, or under the eyes. These effects typically subside within a few days to a week. You may also experience tenderness or a feeling of tightness as your skin adjusts and begins to tighten. To help with the healing process, you’ll need to wear a compression garment for several days, which helps reduce swelling and supports the skin. While most can return to regular activities within a few days, avoiding strenuous exercise for about a week is a good idea.
