Skin Tightening Treatments
Advanced Care for Firmer, Smoother-Looking Skin
Muse Modern Spa offers skin tightening treatments that use radiofrequency technology to support collagen production and improve skin firmness over time. These treatments are designed to address skin laxity and texture concerns on the face and body, without surgery.
We offer two treatment options—Morpheus8 and Forma Radiofrequency—each selected based on treatment depth, skin condition, and individual goals.
How Skin Tightening Works
Skin tightening treatments deliver controlled radiofrequency energy to the deeper layers of the skin. This gentle heating process stimulates collagen and elastin, which help support firmer, smoother-looking skin as the body naturally rebuilds over time.
Results develop gradually and may continue to improve in the weeks following treatment.
Areas We Treat
Skin tightening treatments at Muse can be used on both the face and body. Common treatment areas include:
- Face and jawline
- Neck
- Abdomen
- Arms
- Thighs
- Knees
Treatment areas and plans are customized during consultation.
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 combines radiofrequency energy with microneedling to reach deeper layers of the skin.
This treatment is commonly used when more intensive tightening or texture improvement is desired. Morpheus8 can help improve firmness while also addressing uneven texture and skin quality.
Treatment depth and settings are adjusted based on the area treated. Some downtime may be expected.
Forma Radiofrequency
Forma is a non-invasive radiofrequency treatment that delivers consistent heat without needles.
It is often selected for individuals looking to improve mild to moderate skin laxity with little to no downtime. Forma treatments are generally comfortable and are frequently used for facial and body maintenance.
Choosing the Right Treatment
Morpheus8 and Forma serve different purposes. The appropriate option depends on treatment area, degree of skin laxity, desired intensity, and downtime considerations.
During your consultation, your provider will assess your skin and recommend the most appropriate approach.
Before Your Treatment
To prepare for skin tightening treatments, we recommend:
- Avoiding sun exposure and tanning for at least one week
- Discontinuing retinol or exfoliating products several days prior
- Arriving with clean, makeup-free skin
- Informing your provider of any new medications or skin concerns
Specific instructions may vary depending on the treatment selected.
What to Expect After Treatment
Post-treatment experience varies by treatment type. Mild redness, warmth, or swelling may occur and typically resolve within a short period.
Your provider will review aftercare instructions, including skincare guidance and activity recommendations, to support optimal results.
