What Is FaceTite?
FaceTite is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis to contour the face and neck. Developed by InMode, the technology delivers controlled radiofrequency energy through a small cannula inserted beneath the skin, simultaneously tightening tissue and reducing localized fat deposits.
The procedure targets common concerns such as jowling, a double chin, and skin laxity along the jawline and neck. Unlike a traditional facelift, FaceTite requires only small puncture-point incisions, which means less scarring, less bruising, and a significantly shorter recovery period.
For patients who want visible improvement without the commitment of surgery, FaceTite offers a middle ground. It is more effective than topical or surface-level treatments but far less invasive than a full surgical lift.
Are You a Good Candidate for FaceTite?
FaceTite is designed for patients who are experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity in the face or neck but are not yet ready for, or interested in, a traditional facelift. During a consultation at our Houston, TX, office, Dr. Linville evaluates each patient individually to determine whether FaceTite is the best path forward.
Ideal candidates typically share a few key characteristics:
- Mild to moderate sagging along the jawline, chin, or neck
- Good overall health with no conditions that could impair healing
- Realistic expectations about the outcome of a minimally invasive procedure
- A preference for shorter recovery times compared to surgical alternatives
Patients with more advanced skin laxity may benefit from a surgical approach or a combination of treatments. Dr. Linville discusses all available options during the consultation so every patient can make an informed decision.
What to Expect After FaceTite
Results from FaceTite develop gradually. Most patients notice an initial improvement within the first few weeks as swelling subsides, with continued skin tightening over the following three to six months as collagen production increases.
Immediate Recovery
Patients can typically return to light daily activities within two to three days. A compression garment may be recommended for the first week to support healing and help the skin conform to its new contours. Mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness are normal and generally resolve within 7–14 days.
Long-Term Results
Because FaceTite stimulates the body's own collagen remodeling process, results continue to refine over time. Most patients see their final results between three and six months post-procedure. While FaceTite does not stop the natural aging process, the improvements are long-lasting and can be maintained with a consistent skincare routine and sun protection.

How long does a FaceTite procedure take?
- Most FaceTite procedures take between 45 minutes and one hour, depending on the number of areas being treated. Because the procedure is performed under local anesthesia, there is no need for general sedation or an overnight hospital stay.
Is FaceTite painful?
- Patients typically report minimal discomfort during the procedure thanks to local anesthesia. Some soreness and tenderness may occur during the first few days of recovery, which can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
How long do FaceTite results last?
- Results from FaceTite are fairly long-lasting. While the procedure does not halt the natural aging process, most patients enjoy their improved contours for several years. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and following a consistent skincare routine can help extend the longevity of your results.
Can FaceTite be combined with other procedures?
- Yes. Dr. Linville frequently combines FaceTite with treatments like neck liposuction or Morpheus8 for enhanced results. During your consultation at our Houston office, he will recommend the most effective treatment plan.
