Most skin concerns are never just skin-deep.
At Cady Wellness Institute, we understand the profound connection between your physical appearance and mental health. Over the years, constantly checking your features in the mirror or wishing you looked “different” can erode your quality of life, even contributing to anxiety or depression.
But you deserve to love and care for yourself through every chapter of life.
With thoughtfully implemented skin-tightening in Newburgh, we can gently enhance your natural beauty, in turn supporting a healthier self-image and reigniting your confidence. Keep reading to explore your treatment options, or book your aesthetics consultation with our team.
Let’s Talk About Skin Laxity
Despite your best efforts, the skin grows more relaxed over time, no longer hugging your contours as it did in your youth. For many, skin laxity is a natural consequence of aging. However, your own personal habits can contribute to diminished skin quality.
The Aging Process
As we get older, the skin naturally produces less collagen and elastin—fibrous proteins essential to the volume and elasticity of the skin. With a weakened structure and reduced ability to reinforce this framework, the skin becomes thinner and less flexible.
This delicate tissue lacks the ability to “bounce back” into place around your features, instead falling slack or settling into folds and wrinkles.
Deficient hormones can exacerbate skin aging, as diminished estrogen and progesterone circulation further inhibits collagen and elastin genesis.
And just as our skin quality fades over time, other facial structures follow suit. The bones in our faces naturally recede, forcing our fat pads to relocate. As the pillowy fat deposits around our undereyes and cheeks migrate, the face might take on a sunken or sagging look. Similarly, weakened facial muscles lose the lifted structure of youth, adding to the drooping effect.
Your Lifestyle Practices
Our daily habits can also affect skin health. If you work out in the sun consistently without SPF, use tobacco products, and consume foods that lack nutritional value, you might notice premature or accelerated skin aging.
UV radiation from the sun breaks down the collagen and elastin fibers in the skin. With repeated, prolonged sun exposure, the subsequent skin damage thwarts skin elasticity, making the tissue more prone to wrinkling.
Regularly smoking cigarettes dehydrates the skin, breaking down the skin barrier that enables moisture retention and protects us from pollutants. Smoking also damages the collagen and elastin fibers in the epidermis. Dry, thin skin is more likely to fall into wrinkles and folds.
Even your diet influences your skin quality. Without proper nutrition, your skin can’t heal itself as quickly, lacking the fuel to support collagen and elastin production. In fact, the refined carbs in processed foods weaken your existing collagen fibers, exacerbating skin concerns.
Finding Peace With Your Appearance
When your looks no longer align with your inner vitality, it can take a toll on your self-esteem. And you are not alone in this experience. Studies show that dissatisfaction with one’s appearance can lead to low mood, diminished self-worth, depression, social isolation, and more.
At Cady Wellness Institute, we believe you can only benefit from being kinder to yourself—and we are here to guide your journey back to self-love.
Whether that means psychiatric support, wellness therapies, or aesthetic treatments like skin tightening in Newburgh, there is no shame in investing in yourself and your quality of life. Because when you feel like your best self, all the rest falls into place.
Planning Your Aesthetic Treatments
If you come to our practice seeking natural skin rejuvenation, we don’t set you up with random blanket Band-Aid treatments that cover up your natural beauty or tackle your concerns from the surface.
When we approach skin-tightening in Newburgh, we personalize your anti-aging treatments to fit you. That means beginning your care experience with a one-on-one consultation.
Consultation
During your consultation, we want to know what brought you in to see us. You sit down with a member of our team to discuss your goals for treatment and medical history. At this time, we also assess your skin condition to determine if we can effectively resolve your concerns with noninvasive treatments.
These insights help us shape an aesthetic plan that aligns with your needs, lifestyle, and desired treatment outcome.
Emface
Emface helps restore more youthful facial contours, using advanced technology to noninvasively improve the appearance of:
- Wrinkles
- Fine lines
- Sagging skin
- Mild volume loss
Candidacy
Many patients can benefit from Emface muscle toning and skin tightening in Newburgh. However, your provider might recommend alternative aesthetic treatments if you are:
- Pregnant
- Living with metal implants in the body, like a cochlear implant
- Recovering from recent facial or neck surgery
- Fighting an active skin infection or inflammation (like sunburn)
- Using prescription skin treatments like isotretinoin
Preparation
If your provider believes you are a candidate for Emface, they will advise the following pre-care steps leading up to treatment.
- Use gentle skincare products for 2 weeks prior.
- Avoid alcohol and tobacco products 48 hours before Emface.
- Arrive at your Emface appointment with clean skin.
Treatment
Emface technology sculpts the face using thermal radiofrequency (RF) energy and high-intensity facial electrical stimulation (HIFES). Based on your treatment goals, your provider adheres the Emface applicators to your forehead, cheeks, undereyes, or beneath your chin.
During treatment, the thermal RF energy gently heats the targeted skin, creating controlled damage that triggers skin healing. This response stimulates elevated collagen and elastin production. At the same time, the HIFES technology activates the underlying facial muscles, prompting contractions that steadily tone the muscles.
After-Care
A denser collagen and elastin framework plumps the skin and increases its elasticity. In firming the skin and retraining the facial muscles, we gradually reveal a smoothed, voluminous visage. Many patients enjoy lifted contours after a series of 4 to 6 treatments, after which the skin’s quality only continues to improve.
To maintain optimal skin health after each treatment, your provider might advise that you:
- Wait at least 12 hours before applying makeup products.
- Avoid drinking alcohol or smoking for 48 hours after treatment.
- Limit direct sun exposure for 1 week.
Exion
Exion, a device commonly used for skin tightening in Newburgh, is often ideal for patients experiencing:
- Mild-to-moderate skin laxity
- Rough texture
- Fine lines
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven tone
We can use the highly versatile applicators to target skin concerns on the face and body.
Candidacy
However, Exion does not suit all patients. Your provider might not recommend Exion treatments if you are:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding
- Experiencing active inflammation in the desired treatment area
- Living with metal or electronic implants in the area, as with a piercing or pacemaker
- Currently living with an autoimmune condition or epilepsy
Preparation
Once your provider confirms you are a candidate for Exion skin rejuvenation, they can advise any steps you need to take in preparation for treatment, often including:
- Stop using skincare products containing ingredients 2 to 4 weeks before treatment.
- Protect your skin from direct sunlight 2 to 4 weeks leading up to the procedure.
- Avoid taking blood-thinning medications 2 weeks before.
- If hair is present in the treatment area, shave it at least 24 hours prior to Exion.
- Arrive at your appointment with clean skin.
Treatment
Before beginning your Exion skin tightening in Newburgh, your provider smooths a topical numbing cream onto the treatment area for your comfort. The next step varies based on your unique treatment plan, as we can use the Exion applicators for the face, body, or fractional RF microneedling.
During an Exion face treatment, your skilled practitioner glides the handpiece across the skin. The device emits radiofrequency (RF) energy and ultrasound waves that gently heat the targeted tissue, creating what your skin perceives as “damage.” As your skin repairs itself, it develops new collagen and elastin fibers and produces hyaluronic acid, resulting in an increasingly plumped, radiant appearance.
Similarly, we can use the Exion body applicator to target larger expanses of skin, the thermal RF energy and ultrasound technology stimulating deep skin renewal from within.
Treatment with the Exion RF microneedling applicator reaches even deeper. The microneedles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin that enable the RF and ultrasound energies to penetrate deep within the tissue without piercing the dermis. This trifecta of technology fosters natural dermal remodeling.
After-Care
Many patients notice a brighter complexion and tightened skin after a single treatment. Typically, we recommend a series of at least 3 Exion sessions, each scheduled 4 to 6 weeks apart for optimal collagen and elastin restoration.
After every Exion treatment, your provider will outline the steps you can take to care for your skin. Often, these instructions include:
- Avoid consuming alcohol or using tobacco products for the first 2 days after Exion.
- Use lukewarm water and a gentle cleanser to wash the treated skin for 2 weeks.
- Limit direct UV exposure for 2 weeks following your appointment.
