FaceTite: Permanent Facial and Neck Fat Removal
One sign of aging is the breakdown of collagen production and the buildup of fat. Some of the most common areas it can occur are the face and neck, which can lead to disappointment in how we view ourselves. For those who might be hesitant about full-blown cosmetic surgery, there exists a non-surgical alternative called FaceTite.
What is the FaceTite Procedure?
FaceTite is a minimally invasive, cutting-edge treatment that offers a unique combination of fat reduction and skin tightening. Utilizing advanced Radiofrequency Assisted Liposuction (RFAL) technology, it specifically targets fatty deposits in the face and neck.
Being minimally invasive, the procedure only requires small incisions. Through incising and liposuction, the treatment serves a dual purpose: collagen stimulation. As we age, the production of collagen slows, resulting in droopy skin, weakened metabolism, and inability to burn fat. Alongside the removal of fat, treated areas will experience naturally tighter, healthier skin.
Overall, there are several benefits that this RFAL-based treatment can provide:
- Permanent fat removal along the face and neck.
- Improved collagen growth and presence.
- Tighter skin for a natural and healthy appearance.
- Restores youthful facial contours.
- Quicker downtime and recovery than traditional alternatives.
How FaceTite Achieves Results
Dr. Mansher Singh conducts the FaceTite procedure in a similar way to traditional liposuction. He begins by administering local anesthesia to the treatment area. Then, he makes a small incision near the treatment area, hidden within the natural creases of the skin.
Inserting a small wand with electrodes, he can use radiofrequency waves to melt the area’s fat cells. Once he liquifies the fat, he inserts a small handheld vacuum tube to liposuction it away.
Aside from the direct removal of fat, this treatment also tightens the skin around the treated area. By creating a wound, Dr. Singh can stimulate the production of collagen. This not only restores a youthful appearance but improves the body’s ability to prevent new fat from appearing. It also reduces the appearance of large pores, age spots, and other tell-tale signs of aging.
What a FaceTite Session Can Do for You
Specific treatment areas can include:
- Cheeks
- Jowls
- Jawline
- Around the eyes and brow area
- Double chin or turkey neck
- Loose skin on the neck
While FaceTite is a procedure that removes fat, Dr. Singh urges that this is not a valid replacement for weight loss.
What is Recovery Like for FaceTite?
One Dr. Singh has completed the procedure, he applies a compression garment. He encourages patients to wear it at home, to protect your results and allow your wounds to heal. While patients can return home on the same day, it may take upward of 48 hours to recover. By this point, patients can return to work and resume daily activities.
Once a few days have passed, most people notice their results. Though, it may take a few more months to recognize their full results.
The results of one FaceTite procedure typically last several years. Following your treatment, he will provide at-home care instructions and advice on maintaining the results.
It varies between everyone’s unique needs and goals, but some people find microneedling to further enhance their results. Dr. Singh is more than qualified to perform various non-surgical treatments, like microneedling, dermabrasion, and filler injections.
What are Associated Risks?
While minimally invasive, this is still a surgery that requires the provider to make incisions. Every cosmetic procedure comes with some side effect, such as bruising, swelling, and general discomfort around treatment areas. As with any surgery, there are also complications that can arise.
Although rare, here are some potential risks:
- Scarring
- Infection
- Nerve Damage
To avoid such problems, it’s important to place your trust in a qualified provider.

Is FaceTite painful?
Through usage of oral sedation and local anesthesia, FaceTite is relatively unpainful. At the least, patients should expect mild discomfort during the procedure.
