1.
How does the Cutera Titan work?
Titan utilizes a safe infrared light to heat the dermis well
below the skin's surface. During the procedure, the skin's
top surface (epidermis) is protected through continuous cooling
with the Titan handpiece.
2.
What areas respond best to the Titan
procedure?
Patients have been successfully treated on many areas of the
body. The most common areas treated are the jawline, under
the chin, and the abdomen.
3.
Who can be treated?
Since the Titan procedure heats tissue under the skin's surface,
patients of any skin type or age can be treated. Your
physician can advise you if the Titan is right for you.
4.
How many treatments will I
need?
Although a single treatment has produced very good results for
many patients, it is quite common for patients to have two or three
treatments over a few months. Your physician will advise you
as to the number and frequency of treatments recommended for
optimal results.
5.
What happens after
treatment?
Immediately following the treatment, you may notice some redness
and mild swelling in the treated area. Both should dissipate
within a few hours.
6.
What do treatments feel
like?
With each Titan pulse you will feel a brief heating
sensation. Some patients are more comfortable taking a mild
pain reliever beforehand. Many patients are comfortable
without any medication. Your physician will advise you.
