What is NIR Skin Tightening?
NIR Skin Tightening is a device-based treatment that uses controlled near-infrared energy to warm tissue and improve mild laxity. The approach is personalised after a full clinical assessment.
Treatment goal
The goal is to improve mild skin firmness while using the lowest effective settings for the treatment area and skin response. The result should remain balanced and proportionate.
Safety and suitability
It is generally well tolerated in suitable patients when performed by a qualified practitioner after medical screening, but no treatment is risk-free. Correct diagnosis, device selection, skin-type assessment and eye protection where relevant are essential.
Temporary redness, warmth, tenderness, dryness, swelling, crusting or peeling can occur depending on treatment depth.
Possible risks include burns, infection, prolonged redness, pigment change, scarring, reactivation of cold sores and an unsatisfactory result. Unexpected symptoms need prompt clinical assessment.
