SmoothNeck®
The decrease in collagen production in the neck causes the formation of horizontal and vertical lines on the skin’s surface over the platysma muscles. The skin loses strength and elasticity as we age, so it is common to see early signs of premature aging such as sagging of the skin on the neck. Piano mode is a laser application setting on the Fotona Sp Dynamis laser machine that induces controlled thermal homogenous bulk heating in the treatment area. Piano mode is indicated for a variety of different treatment protocols, including laser face lifting and skin tightening on the body.
Piano mode utilizes the nd: Yag which initiates bulk heating of the dermal tissues safely by increasing the temperatures on the surface of the skin to 42-45 degrees Celsius. High bulk heating in the subcutaneous tissue stimulates cell response activity, known as photo thermolysis. The second step uses the Er:Yag laser to preform non-ablative skin tightening.
It is proven that the skin on the neck is as fragile as the skin on our face, however most people generally notice aging in there necks first because the neck is usually ignored in our daily skincare routine. We often lack moisture and care for the neck area and this can become evident for people in there thirties and forties.
