Lift, Tighten, and Refine

Advanced Skin Tightening with the L.A.B.

Loss of firmness and elasticity can impact the way your skin looks and feels. As collagen and structural support decline, the skin may appear less lifted and less defined.

Here at The L.A.B. Med Spa, we address these changes with advanced, non-surgical treatments designed to restore strength and resilience to the skin.

We have services like Morpheus8 and QuantumRF that we use to target skin laxity at a deeper level. By stimulating collagen and remodeling the skin’s foundation, these treatments help create a firmer, smoother, and more refined appearance.

Skin Tightening Services at The L.A.B.

We offer advanced skin tightening treatments designed to improve firmness and support long-term collagen production. Each option is selected based on your skin’s needs and desired level of correction.

Morpheus8

Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to penetrate deeper layers of the skin.

This process stimulates collagen production while remodeling underlying tissue, helping to improve skin firmness, texture, and overall definition.

Over time, the skin appears tighter, smoother, and more refined.

QuantumRF

QuantumRF uses controlled radiofrequency energy to target deeper layers of the skin and underlying tissue.

By delivering heat with precision, it helps contract existing collagen fibers while encouraging new collagen formation.

This results in improved skin tightness, enhanced contour, and a more lifted appearance.

The L.A.B. Standard for Skin Tightening

Our approach to skin tightening is centered on precision and customization. Rather than applying a single solution, we tailor each treatment plan to address the depth and severity of skin laxity.

Through the use of technologies like Morpheus8 and QuantumRF, we are able to target deeper layers of the skin to promote collagen remodeling. This results in improved tightness, smoother texture, and a more defined appearance.

Karin Book

My wife suffered a severe adverse reaction to Radiesse injections at a different aesthetic spa. We were recommended to urgently seek the assistance of LAB Med Spa in Southlake. Sonya & Stephen were eager to help her & got confirmed her appointment very quickly. From the moment that we entered their location; the attentiveness & concern was notable. The entire staff dedicated themselves to helping her & resolving the issues. They sat with us in an interview & documented all of the previous issues & associated treatments previously provided. From this information, they developed a remediation plan to resolve the issues that resulted from the adverse reaction to the injection. She is currently in the step-by-step remediation plan that was agreed upon. The results have been spectacular. Every visit involves a complete evaluation of the treatment progress & initiation of the next step. We could not be more pleased & grateful to Sonya Ellis, Dr. Stephen Ellis & their entire staff. We would highly recommend LAB Med Spa for any facial aesthetic treatments that you would require. Thank you again for helping us through this difficult situation!

I had such a wonderful experience at the L.A.B. Med Spa. This was my first visit and it was warm and welcoming from the minute I walked in. The space is beautifully decorated, clean and well organized. I was a little nervous at first as this was my first experience with Botox injections. Everyone was kind and comforting and quickly put me at ease. Alyssa was my provider and she made me feel comfortable, took time to listen and explained everything clearly and thoroughly. Her energy was kind, calming, confident and professional throughout the process. Most importantly, my results were amazing! I am beyond happy with how everything turned out and sincerely appreciate the care and attention to detail she provided. I highly recommend this med spa to anyone looking for professional service, a clean and inviting environment, and fantastic results! I will definitely be coming back!

The Lab MedSpa is superb. From lasers to Botox and facials, every facet of the business exceeds expectations. I recently had a laser treatment with Dr. Ellis and the results have truly surpassed what I hoped for. Communication was excellent, and the post-laser care and follow-up were just as impressive. Highly recommend!

Sonya is a top notch educator! I appreciate her kindness and knowledge in technique and rheology. As a newer injector, she made me feel so comfortable and was able to explain things to me that was easy to understand. Thank you so much for your hospitality and knowledge. It was so worth traveling to train with her and her team! She did a great job to making us feel like we were apart of her team that day and she is also hilarious! You can really tell how passionate about her patients and the work she does. Shelby was also as amazing. She really inspires me with how knowledgeable she is. I love the dynamic her and Sonya have created together. They really share both perspectives on what works for them and it allowed me to feel like they cared about my learning without any bias. Shelby has a very calm demeanor that made me feel at ease with learning from her. Thank you so much to the LAB team and educators. It makes me excited to learn more from them in the future!

FAQ

Any Questions?

Still have questions?
At what age should I start skin tightening treatments?

Skin tightening can be beneficial as soon as early signs of laxity appear. Many patients begin in their late 20s to 30s as a preventative approach, while others seek treatment later to correct more visible changes.

Will skin tightening treatments change my facial features?

These treatments are designed to enhance your natural features, not alter them. The goal is to improve firmness and definition while maintaining a natural, balanced appearance.

Can skin tightening treatments be combined with other services?

Yes, skin tightening is often combined with other treatments to enhance overall results. A customized plan can address multiple concerns, such as texture, tone, and volume, in a coordinated way.

Can skin tightening treatments be done on areas other than the face?

Yes, skin tightening treatments can be used on multiple areas of the body, including the neck, jawline, abdomen, and other areas where skin laxity is present.

How long does it take to see results from skin tightening treatments?

Some patients notice initial improvements within a few weeks, but the most significant results develop over time as collagen production increases, typically over several months.

Is there a difference between surgical and non-surgical skin tightening?

Non-surgical treatments focus on stimulating collagen and improving skin quality without incisions or extended downtime. They offer gradual, natural-looking improvements compared to surgical procedures.

What is the downtime for skin tightening treatments?
