Sciton SkinTyte™
Skin Firming
Treatment
A non-surgical infrared light treatment designed to improve the appearance of skin laxity and support firmer, more youthful-looking skin.
SkinTyte™ uses Sciton BroadBand Light technology to deliver rapid, gentle pulses of infrared light into the skin while keeping the surface cool and comfortable. This consultant-supervised treatment is designed to support dermal heating, improve the appearance of mild to moderate laxity, and encourage a firmer, smoother-looking result over time.
Suitable for many face, neck and body areas following consultation.
Best suited to mild to moderate skin laxity rather than significant loose or hanging skin.
What Is SkinTyte™?
SkinTyte™ is a non invasive skin firming treatment from Sciton that uses BroadBand Light technology and infrared light energy to gently heat the deeper layers of the skin.
The treatment is designed to improve the appearance of loose or sagging skin by delivering controlled dermal heating while maintaining comfort with surface cooling.
At Circle Aesthetics, SkinTyte™ is offered as part of a consultant supervised skin rejuvenation pathway for suitable patients who want a non surgical approach to firmer, smoother and more youthful looking skin.
Note: SkinTyte™ is best suited to mild to moderate skin laxity and is not a replacement for surgical lifting in patients with significant loose skin.

How SkinTyte™ Works
SkinTyte™ delivers rapid, gentle pulses of Sciton BroadBand Light into the skin. The infrared light energy is designed to heat the deeper dermal layers while the skin surface is protected with cooling.
This controlled heating process supports the skin’s natural response and is intended to improve the appearance of laxity, firmness and overall skin quality over a course of treatments.
Infrared Light Delivery
Gentle infrared light energy is delivered into the treatment area.
Dermal Heating with Surface Cooling
The deeper layers of the skin are warmed while cooling helps maintain comfort at the surface.
Firmer Looking Skin Over Time
The treatment is designed to support a smoother, tighter and more youthful looking appearance in suitable patients.
Results develop gradually and vary between patients.
Treatment Areas
SkinTyte™ may be used on many face and body areas where mild to moderate laxity is a concern.
Face
For overall facial firmness and early laxity.
Jawline
To support a firmer looking lower face and jawline contour.
Neck
For mild to moderate laxity and crepey skin appearance.
Abdomen
For suitable patients with mild skin laxity.
Arms
To improve the appearance of loose or crepey skin in appropriate cases.
Body Areas
Other areas may be considered following consultation and suitability assessment.
Note: Suitability depends on skin quality, degree of laxity and treatment goals.
Who May Be Suitable?
SkinTyte™ may be suitable for patients who are beginning to notice mild to moderate skin laxity and want a non surgical treatment option.
-
mild to moderate skin laxity -
early sagging or loss of firmness -
crepey skin texture -
loose skin after ageing, weight change or pregnancy -
patients seeking a non surgical treatment option -
patients who understand results are gradual and not surgical
Note: SkinTyte™ is best suited to mild to moderate laxity. Patients with significant loose skin may require surgical assessment or alternative treatment planning.
Who May Be Less Suitable?
SkinTyte™ is not the right treatment for every patient. A consultation is important to assess whether the expected improvement is realistic.
-
significant loose or hanging skin -
patients expecting a surgical lifting result -
severe laxity after major weight loss -
active infection or inflammation in the treatment area -
certain medical conditions or medication considerations -
unrealistic expectations of immediate or guaranteed tightening
If SkinTyte™ is unlikely to meet your goals, we will advise you honestly and discuss whether another treatment pathway may be more appropriate.
