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
- Mouth
- Nasolabial folds
- Jowls and jawline

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.

My experience with Dr. Mesa was nothing short of life-changing. From the moment you walk into his office, you’re treated with genuine care, attention, and respect. The staff is top-notch the front desk, the CMAs, and Christina especially, are all amazing. You feel like you’re walking into a second home, not a medical office.
I came to Dr. Mesa because I was feeling a disconnect. I work out six days a week, my body was tight and strong, but my face and neck weren’t matching up. I started noticing sagging in my lower face and neck, a loss of elasticity that I just couldn’t reverse on my own. It bothered me, not because I wanted to look different, but because I wanted my outside to reflect how I felt inside, vibrant, strong, and confident.
I had been seeing Dr. Mesa for about 13 years, and finally, he said it was time to do something. I trusted him completely. I never even asked for the full breakdown. I just showed up for surgery, knowing I was in expert hands.
He performed a deep plane facelift and deep plane neck lift, all under local anesthesia. And let me tell you painless. Yes, really. The entire process was smooth and comfortable, and I never once felt uneasy.
Recovery was actually… enjoyable. Yes, I missed the gym, but Dr. Mesa’s team had me busy with massages, follow-ups, and self-care routines. They truly cared about my mental and emotional well-being, not just the physical results. They understood my lifestyle and made sure I felt supported every step of the way.
Now, 34 days later, I look in the mirror and see the version of myself I always felt on the inside. My face is tight, lifted, but natural, no one noticed I had surgery, just that I looked refreshed. Some thought I’d had PRP (which I joked about), but let’s be honest PRP doesn’t give you this kind of result!
This has been an unforgettable experience, and one I’m so grateful for. If you’re on the fence, just do the consultation. You’ll know right away that Dr. Mesa is the real deal, a true artist, an expert surgeon, and a kind soul with an incredible team behind him.
Thank you, Dr. Mesa, for giving me back a face that matches my energy and spirit. You’ve truly changed my life.
