Covid Policy PricingWhy Does Saggy Skin Occur?
Saggy skin occurs primarily due to the ageing process, when the body procures less collagen and elastin, leading to a reduction in skin firmness and resilience. Genetics, environmental factors, such as sun exposure and smoking, and even rapid weight loss, also play a role in the development of lax skin.
Fortunately, the Dr. Jodie clinic provides a range of treatments aimed at skin tightening and firming. They work predominantly to improve skin laxity by stimulating the body’s natural collagen and elastin production mechanisms. Within her skin tightening arsenal are the Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling device, Laser Genesis, IPL skin rejuvenation, and other medical treatments that involve the use of schedule 4 medication (and as such cannot legally be discussed online).
However, to prevent the development of saggy skin and enhance treatment outcomes, it is important to maintain an appropriate skin care regime with 50+ SPF sunscreen, practice sun avoidance, and live a healthy lifestyle.

Skin Rejuvenation Skin Laser Skin TighteningThe Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling device stands at the forefront of skin tightening methods that are minimally invasive. By combining microneedling with the power of radiofrequency energy, this sophisticated technology triggers your body’s own healing mechanisms, promoting the generation of collagen and elastin. This ultimately results in tighter, firmer skin with improved tissue elasticity and a refreshed look. As an add-on to skin tightening, The Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling device also improves the appearance of skin irregularities, such as fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, and acne scarring, providing Surrey Hills residents with an advanced solution for achieving smoother looking skin.
Surprisingly, the Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling device has minimal recovery time. Most commonly, clients experience mild facial redness for 1-2 days, although sometimes less, and feint, barely visible, transient ‘grid marks’ that resolve over 1-2 weeks (at worst). Compared to its counterparts, the Morpheus 8 and the Secret, treatment with Scarlet S typically involves less pain and less downtime. This is largely due to its patented technology with gold-plated, tapered, non-insulated microneedles that heat the entirety of the skin in a single pass. Other technologies often use insulated needles that require multiple passes through your skin to effectively treat all layers, adding to trauma and recovery time with no better results. Even so, all devices carry risks and these will be fully explained before you proceed.
Radio frequency tightening typically requires serial sessions. At the Dr. Jodie clinic, we recommend a minimum of 3 treatments, preferably 4, for your best results and optimal skin tightening. The best part? The Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling Device is suitable for use in all skin types, so no one misses out!
Laser genesis is a non-invasive laser treatment renowned for its ability to enhance skin firmness by heating the upper layers of the skin and stimulating collagen and elastin production. This device is a favourite among Surrey Hills residents, as it does not require any recovery time, allowing you to get on with your day without adjusting your social calendar. Beyond skin tightening and skin firming, Laser Genesis has added benefits of smoothing fines lines and wrinkles, minimising pores, and improving acne scarring. Moreover, it also acts to minimise facial redness and flushing by shrinking the small broken facial capillaries of your face. Like most treatments in the Dr. Jodie clinic, serial sessions are required for your best outcome. We recommend a series of 4-6 treatments, spaced 1 month apart.
How Does Medi Pulse Pro XL IPL Treatment Lead To Skin Tightening In Dr. Jodie’s Surrey Hills Clinic?
The Medi Pulse Pro XL IPL rejuvenation treatment acts by releasing a broad band of light onto your skin. This light encounters a range of targets including water molecules and molecules responsible for the colour of your skin, oxyhaemoglobin (responsible for the red hue) and melanin (responsible for the brown hue), which absorb the light as heat, effectively damaging your skin. Your body’s natural renewal processes then remove old, damaged tissue and replace it with new, fresh skin, which brings with it new collagen and elastin. This results in tighter, smoother skin, with enhanced elasticity. While Medi Pulse Pro IPL treatments that focus on skin pigmentation and vascular complaints require recovery time, rejuvenation treatments often do not. Rejuvenation treatments are a low to no downtime event that result in gradual skin transformations and minimise disruptions to your daily life. Again, serial treatments are required.
Does The Dr. Jodie Clinic Offer Any Other Means For Skin Tightening?
Yes, they do! Some of our skin firming treatments cannot be discussed online, as they infer the use of schedule 4 medications, which cannot legally be advertised, as per our governing body, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). It is important to consult with your Dr. Jodie clinician to discover your available options and see if these treatments are right for you. For suitable candidates, these treatments provide a fantastic adjunct to devices in the quest for skin tightening.
The Dr. Jodie clinic shines as a leader in aesthetic medicine for Surrey Hills residents, providing a pathway to vibrant, tighter skin fuelled by experience, understanding and a dedication to cosmetic excellence. At the Dr. Jodie Clinic, you can expect:

Loose skin is primarily a result of the natural ageing process, where the body produces less collagen and elastin, leading to a decrease in skin firmness and elasticity. Genetics, environmental factors like sun exposure and smoking, and rapid weight loss can also contribute to loose skin. Thankfully, the Dr. Jodie Clinic in Surrey Hills offers a range of treatments aimed at tightening and firming the skin. These treatments work by stimulating the body’s natural collagen and elastin production mechanisms.
The Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling device combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to trigger the body’s healing mechanisms, promoting collagen and elastin production. This results in tighter, firmer skin with improved elasticity and a refreshed appearance. Additionally, the device can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, and acne scarring, providing Surrey Hills residents with an advanced solution for smoother-looking skin.
Laser Genesis is a non-invasive laser treatment that heats the lower layers of the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. This treatment enhances skin firmness without any recovery time, making it a favourite among Surrey Hills residents. Laser Genesis can also smooth fine lines and wrinkles, minimise pores, and improve acne scarring, providing comprehensive skin rejuvenation.
Medi Pulse Pro XL IPL treatment uses broad-spectrum light to target water, oxyhaemoglobin, and melanin in the skin, stimulating renewal processes. This leads to the removal of old tissue with unwanted blood vessels and pigmentation, and the production of new collagen and elastin, resulting in tighter, smoother, clearer skin. While treatments for pigmentation and vascular issues may require downtime, rejuvenation treatments often do not, offering a gradual transformation with minimal disruption. Serial treatments are usually needed for best results.
