Understanding FaceTite and AccuTite

FaceTite and AccuTite are minimally invasive radiofrequency procedures for selected contour concerns. FaceTite is generally used for broader areas such as the lower face and neck; AccuTite is designed for smaller areas requiring greater precision.

An individual consultation is needed to discuss suitability, limitations, alternatives and risks.

What happens during a FaceTite or AccuTite procedure?

The procedure begins with consultation, photography and planning. Dr Wong reviews the area being considered, explains the planned approach and discusses anaesthetic options and recovery expectations.

A typical procedure includes:

The appointment includes preparation, anaesthetic, the procedure and post-procedure review.

Procedure planning

Dr Wong assesses the area and marks the planned access points.

Anaesthetic preparation

Local anaesthetic is commonly used. Additional comfort measures depend on the extent of the procedure.

Procedure

After local anaesthetic, Dr Wong applies radiofrequency energy to the planned area through small access points. The clinic monitors you throughout the procedure.

Aftercare

The clinic cleans and dresses the access points before reviewing compression and home-care instructions.

When may I notice changes after FaceTite & AccuTite?

Some patients may notice gradual changes as swelling settles. The degree and timing of change vary depending on anatomy, lifestyle factors and individual healing. Dr Wong will discuss expected changes during follow-up.

  • Suitability, response, recovery and maintenance needs vary.
  • Further appointments are based on review rather than an automatic fixed course.
  • Another approach or no procedure may be appropriate after assessment.

Risks, precautions and safety information

Both procedures are minimally invasive and involve small access points, anaesthetic and controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin. Careful assessment and appropriate technique remain important.

Possible temporary changes include swelling, bruising, tenderness, numbness and firmness beneath the skin. Less common risks include infection, delayed healing, burns, nerve irritation and contour irregularity.

Dr Wong reviews your medical history, previous procedures and facial anatomy before discussing whether the procedure is suitable. He will also explain expected changes, alternatives, recovery requirements and relevant risks.

Individual aftercare

Recovery may involve swelling, bruising, tenderness and numbness. Swelling or firmness may take several weeks to settle; recovery varies by area and individual healing.

Follow the clinic’s instructions for compression, wound care, activities and review. Contact the clinic promptly for increasing pain, spreading redness, marked asymmetry, blistering, weakness or an unexpected change.

Frequently asked questions about FaceTite and AccuTite

Is FaceTite or AccuTite considered surgery?

FaceTite and AccuTite are minimally invasive procedures rather than traditional facelift surgery. Small access points allow the RF handpiece to deliver energy beneath the skin in the planned area. The procedure does not involve long facelift incisions or surgical removal of excess skin. Dr Wong will explain the anaesthetic, expected recovery and limitations during consultation.

What is the typical downtime after the procedure?

Patients may experience temporary swelling, bruising and tenderness during the early recovery period. Many people allow several days to one week before important social or professional commitments, although residual swelling can continue longer. Procedure area, procedure extent and individual healing affect the timeline. Dr Wong will provide a more specific estimate after assessing the proposed procedure area.

Is FaceTite or AccuTite better than threads?

Neither option is considered universally superior. Thread procedures provide mechanical support beneath the skin. FaceTite uses radiofrequency across broader facial areas, while AccuTite targets smaller areas requiring greater precision. Dr Wong recommends an approach based on tissue position, skin laxity, localised fullness and your preferred outcome and expectations.

How much do FaceTite and AccuTite cost in Adelaide?

Pricing depends on the procedure area and complexity. W Medical Aesthetics provides pricing information after assessing your anatomy and procedure plan.
