Modern Skin Tightening, Redefined

Skin Tightening at Sculpt Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery

As we age, collagen and elastin production naturally decline, leading to looser skin, fine lines, and loss of definition in the face and body. At Sculpt Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery in McLean, VA, we offer the most advanced non-surgical skin tightening treatments to restore firmness, improve elasticity, and redefine your contours without invasive surgery or extended downtime.

Our cutting-edge skin tightening services—including Morpheus8 and Lutronic Genius RF Microneedling, BBL Laser, and Neveskin—deliver remarkable results by stimulating natural collagen production, allowing you to enjoy a more youthful, sculpted appearance that looks effortlessly natural.

The Science Behind Smoother, Tighter Skin

What is skin tightening?

Skin tightening treatments use advanced energy-based technologies to firm and lift loose, aging, or crepey skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production deep within the skin’s layers. Unlike surgical lifts, these treatments require no incisions, no anesthesia, and little to no downtime, making them ideal for patients seeking a subtle, natural-looking enhancement.

At Sculpt Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery, we offer several cutting-edge skin tightening solutions, each designed to target different areas of the face and body:
