What is FaceTite?
FaceTite is a cutting-edge, non-invasive skin tightening procedure that uses radiofrequency energy. This advanced system is designed for contouring the face and smaller body areas. It targets the dermis (deeper layer of skin) to tighten the skin and stimulate collagen production, as well as provides skin-renewing benefits that continue for weeks or months after our treatment of FaceTite in NYC.

How does FaceTite work?
The radiofrequency energy used in FaceTite technology gently heats the outer layer and the deeper layer of skin, causing tissues to contract, which destroys fat and stimulates the body’s natural healing response. In the weeks and months following a FaceTite treatment, the destroyed fat cells are naturally shed by your body, while at the same time new collagen is produced. This creates smoother, tighter, younger-looking skin.

What are the main benefits of FaceTite?
FaceTite in NYC is a minimally invasive procedure to firm and tighten the skin with a high rate of patient satisfaction. It is among the safest and most advanced facial rejuvenation procedures. Compared with traditional surgical techniques, FaceTite doesn’t require large incisions or scars. If you have moderate skin laxity and excess fat on the face or neck, your experience with our FaceTite treatment in NYC can take years off your appearance in a single treatment.
Am I a good candidate for FaceTite?
You may be a good candidate for FaceTite in NYC if you’re bothered by moderate loose skin and excess fat of the face or neck. This treatment may be recommended to tighten the skin in a variety of areas, including:
- Forehead
- Brow
- Eyes
- Cheeks

What should I expect with a FaceTite treatment?

The probe and electrode are slowly and simultaneously moved over the skin in the treatment area. The procedure takes approximately 40 minutes to perform, and delivers results that are immediately visible and continue to improve over time.
Is there any downtime after FaceTite?
Recovery is minimal after a FaceTite in NYC with Dr. Mesa. You can return home shortly after treatment and resume normal activities within 48 hours. Most patients return to work within three to five days, or sooner. You can expect some swelling, bruising, tenderness, numbness, or itching in the treatment area which should subside in several days. You will need to wear a compression garment for the best results. The tiny incisions used in this procedure typically heal quickly.
FaceTite FAQ
Results can be seen immediately after a FaceTite procedure. The best and final result will appear in six to twelve weeks following treatment.
FaceTite is an innovative, FDA-approved technology that comes with a built-in safety feature. The handpiece communicates real-time feedback to the practitioner to help ensure a safe, even radiofrequency energy output during treatment. If the energy output reaches a maximum level, the device shuts off automatically. Radiofrequency energy in general is safe and gentle and does not come with the risks of scarring or infection associated with a surgical facelift.
Yes, definitely! FaceTite is highly versatile and can enhance any surgical procedure, especially chin augmentation, blepharoplasty, and facelift surgery. FaceTite can also be combined with non-invasive treatment options such as Morpheus8 and laser therapy to create a comprehensive makeover. During your consultation, our team can create a customized treatment plan using FaceTite combined with other cosmetic solutions to help target and eradicate the signs of aging.
FaceTite fees vary, depending on the size of the targeted areas and on whether you receive additional treatments at the same time. Because FaceTite is a cosmetic procedure and has no medical purpose, insurance companies do not typically provide coverage. It’s important to weigh out all the money you may be spending on less effective methods of skincare, however. FaceTite may actually save you money by offering a long-lasting skin rejuvenation outcome that continues to impress for 1-5 years.

Before my appointment, photos were taken, and I was then escorted to a private room where Dr. Mesa personally went through my medical history with me. He was incredibly attentive, listened to everything I had to say, and took the time to explain everything thoroughly. What really impressed me was how detailed his assessment was. He carefully examined my face and had me make different facial expressions so he could see exactly how and where my wrinkles were appearing. He then used a diagram to walk me through each treatment area and explained exactly how many units of Botox he planned to use. I really appreciated knowing what he was doing and why.
The entire experience was also incredibly relaxing. His assistant brought in some aromatherapy, which was such a thoughtful touch, along with the Botox and ice packs. Dr. Mesa came back shortly afterward to begin the treatment, and I was honestly amazed at how gentle his hand was. Ice packs were used around my crow’s feet and glabella areas, which made the process even more comfortable.
Afterward, Dr. Mesa explained that I should see my full results in about five days and told me that if I felt I needed a touch-up, I could simply call and they would get me back in. That level of care and follow-through really stood out to me.
I also received an amazing introductory price, but I was pleasantly surprised to learn that their regular pricing is very reasonable for the area as well.
I couldn’t be happier with my experience and would highly recommend Dr. Mesa to anyone considering Botox. He is knowledgeable, thorough, gentle, and genuinely takes the time to make you feel comfortable and confident in your treatment. The entire team was fantastic, and I’m so glad I found Dr. Mesa!
What I appreciated most was his meticulous attention to detail and his commitment to achieving a natural look. The results are exactly what I was hoping for.
Staff is nice.

- Dr. Mesa and his team were awesome! I always had stubborn face fat that wouldn’t go away no matter how lean I got and didn’t really know what to do. I did some research on buccal fat removal, and initially I was nervous because of some of the celebrity “ozempic faces” we see these days. But after my consultation I learned that I was a good candidate for buccal fat removal. The recovery process was easier than I anticipated and now, two months later, my face looks great. No one has questioned if I had gotten work done either, my face just looks naturally more chiseled. I highly recommend Dr. Mesa if anyone is considering buccal fat removal.Read MoreRead LessRobert C8/28/2026
