Defy time without surgery
As years pass, your skin can begin to show the effects of gravity, collagen loss, and environmental exposures. In the past, invasive surgery was the only truly effective way to rectify sagging, dull skin.
Now, we have a quick, easy, innovative way to lift and tighten sagging skin without a single incision and no downtime. Introducing our Grand Rapids Sciton SkinTyte, the answer to aging on the face, neck, and virtually anywhere on the body.
At the Bengtson Center for Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery, Dr. Bengtson, Dr. Alfonso and the team recognize that invasive, time consuming surgery is not the answer for every individual patient's needs.
After years of training, research, and helping patients achieve their skin revitalization goals, we want to offer our patients the most effective technologies and procedures for your aesthetic needs. We believe that Sciton SkinTyte is one of the absolute best solutions for sagging, aged skin and our team would be thrilled to show you how it can help achieve your skin goals.
The Sciton SkinTyte Laser treatment works by heating dermal collagen deep under the skin’s surface using leading infrared light technology. This heat stimulates the skin to repair itself in the treatment area resulting in tighter, less wrinkled skin. The gentle, quick light pulses and customizable filters make Sciton SkinTyte the clear choice among non-surgical skin firming solutions.
Do you look in the mirror and feel like your skin doesn’t reflect your inner vitality? SkinTyte can help you to regain that youthful complexion and feel confident in your skin with renewed, firm, glowing results. With SkinTyte, you can feel better about issues like:

Since patients are often struggling with more than one skin concern, added benefits can come from utilizing more than one laser option throughout a series of treatments. Sciton SkinTyte is the premier laser for skin tightening results and used along with other options such as the BBL Hero or Halo, you can also see brilliant improvements in skin texture, uneven pigmentation, and sun damage.
During a consultation, we will discuss in detail your aesthetic goals as well as cover any health concerns that might affect which laser treatment is best for you.
As with most laser skin treatments, limited sun exposure is recommended prior to treatment and any active acne or irritations would need to be healed before the time of your appointment.
Because the SkinTyte equipment includes a cooling contact point, we do not utilize a topical anesthetic for this procedure; however, you will be provided with safety eye coverings.
As the handpiece is steadily moved over your skin, the tool emits infrared light which produces a reaction in collagen and elastin. You may feel a mild warming sensation.
Immediately after the SkinTyte procedure, you may experience some redness, swelling, or tightness like a mild sunburn which usually resolves within 1-3 hours or sooner.
Most activities and skin care can be resumed 24 hours after the treatment. Visible results can be seen after a few weeks and full results are typically realized in 2-4 months.
After decades of combined education, experience, and patient care, our team of doctors, nurses, and staff are committed to offering the most comprehensive and innovative treatment options possible.
If you'd like to find out if you'd be a good candidate for our Sciton SkinTyte Grand Rapids aesthetic experts at The Bengtson Center are ready to address that and any other questions you have during a consultation.

Sciton SkinTyte treatments are gentle enough to be performed without any topical anesthetic and many patients consider it a comfortable or even relaxing experience.
The Sciton SkinTyte Laser is one of the safest ways to achieve tighter, firmer skin. You may experience some minor redness or swelling immediately after the procedure.
Typically side effects such as redness resolve within a few minutes after the procedure so most patients are safe to apply makeup and resume all normal skin care routines and activities right away.
Yes, it is definitely safe for all skin tones. Because the SkinTyte equipment is customizable, your provider will select the best fit for your particular skin.
Many patients find that results last about a year and that maintenance treatments every 6-12 months further the longevity of the outcome.
Since your provider may recommend a plan for multiple treatments depending on your goals, Sciton SkinTyte costs can vary.
