Skin Tight LLC Cornelius

Skin Tight LLC focuses on microcurrent, a non-surgical facial treatment that uses probes to move facial muscles. The business describes microcurrent as the most effective non-surgical facelift, and it recommends a series of sessions rather than a single visit, since each session is described as muscle re-education. Clients under 35 are advised toward about 6 treatments over 2 to 3 weeks, clients 35 to 50 toward 10 to 15 treatments over 4 to 7 weeks, and clients 50 and older toward 15 treatments over 5 to 7 weeks. Smokers and frequent sun exposure may call for 15 to 20 treatments. Most clients then return for a monthly maintenance session.

Before a microcurrent session, clients are asked to drink two glasses of water. The treatment is not offered to clients who have a pacemaker or are pregnant, and clients with neurological disorders or an implanted defibrillator are asked to check with their doctor first. The Microcurrent Facial is open to adult clients of all ages.

Three add-ons can be layered onto a facial. Elastin Infusion Therapy uses a small electrical current to move a skin care protein product into the skin. LED Light Skin Therapy uses infrared LED light, which the business notes is FDA approved; the business says this add-on delivers superior anti-aging and lifting results. Sculpting Gloves are aimed at neck and facial toning, pores, smoothness, radiance and lift.

The business says changes can be seen within the first session, and it states that treatment can help reduce redness from rosacea, kill acne-causing bacteria and reduce dark circles. These are the business's own claims. Hours are Monday through Saturday, alternating between the Charlotte location at 6725 Fairview Road and the Cornelius location at 17105 Kenton Drive, with Sunday closed.

Microcurrent sessions are built around muscle re-education, so a course of treatments is recommended over a single visit.
