Titan© XL

The new Cutera® Titan™ gives you an all natural option to actively turn back the clock on aging skin. Using light energy to stimulate new collagen growth deep beneath your skin’s surface, Titan can tighten skin on your face, arms, abdomen, and legs. It’s an ideal solution to enhance your youthful and healthyappearance without surgery, recovery time, or injections.

How does the Cutera Titan work?

Titan utilizes a safe, infrared light to heat the dermis well below the skin’s surface. This heating can cause immediate collagen contraction resulting in tighter skin. During the procedure, the skin’s surface (epidermis) is protected through continuous cooling with the Titan handpiece. After the procedure, new collagen growth results in further tightening with the improvement of lax skin, folds and lines.

The Titan Difference

Titan employs light energy because it provides a more uniform distribution of energy for heating the deep dermis than other energy sources, such as RF (radiofrequency - Thermage).

What areas respond best to Titan treatment?

Patients have been successfully treated on many areas of the body where skin is lax. Loose skin along the jaw line (jowls), under the chin (turkey neck), neck, the abdomen and upper arm have responded particularly well to the procedure.

Who can be treated?

Since the Titan procedure is heating tissue under the skin’s surface, patients of any skin type can be treated. Men and women of all ages and skin types are potential candidates. Priscilla can advise you if the Titan is right for you.

How many treatments will I need?

A single treatment has produced very good results for some patients. Priscilla will advise you as to the number and frequency of treatments recommended for optimal results. Usually one to three treatments are needed, however.

What happens after treatment? Are there any side effects?

Immediately following the treatment, you may notice some redness and mild swelling in the treated area. Both should dissipate within a few hours. Consult with Priscilla for complete information on the benefits and risks of treatment.

When will I see results?

Many patients see results immediately. The positive changes usually persist and will continue to improve for up to six months. However, for other patients, the results are gradual over a three to six month period as new collagen is formed and the skin tightens.

What do treatments feel like?

With each Titan pulse, you will feel a brief heating sensation. There is some active cooling before the laser pulse and immediately after the pulse to reduce discomfort. Some patients, however, are more comfortable taking a mild pain reliever beforehand. Most patients are comfortable without anything for pain relief. Priscilla will discuss this with you.

Has the Titan been studied and approved?

The Titan has been carefully studied in clinics around the world. It is cleared for the treatment of wrinkles in Europe and for general dermatologic use in Canada. In the US, it is cleared for topical heating to increase local tissue temperatures and circulation. An additional 510(k) clearance is pending in the US for the treatment of wrinkles
