As we age, the production of collagen and elastin naturally slows down, leading to sagging skin, fine lines, and a loss of firmness. While surgery can correct severe laxity, many people want a noninvasive option that restores a more youthful appearance without downtime. Laser skin tightening provides a safe and effective way to firm and lift the skin by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production.
At Therahaus Wellness Med Spa in Chicago, we use state-of-the-art laser technology to help you achieve smoother, tighter, and more youthful-looking skin. With oversight from Dr. Angeline Beltsos, a double-board-certified physician, our treatments are delivered with precision, safety, and care tailored to your individual needs.
What Is Laser Skin Tightening?
Laser skin tightening is a noninvasive procedure that uses infrared or radiofrequency energy to gently heat the deeper layers of skin. This controlled energy stimulates the production of collagen and elastin fibers, resulting in gradual tightening and enhanced elasticity.
Common treatment areas include:
- Face and jawline
- Neck and décolletage
- Abdomen
- Arms and thighs

During your consultation, your provider will recommend the best approach and may suggest combining laser tightening with other treatments, such as resurfacing or microneedling, for enhanced results.
The Laser Skin Tightening Process

Clients can usually return to normal activities right after their session.
Results and Recovery
Results develop gradually as collagen rebuilds, with many clients noticing improvement within a few weeks. Optimal results often appear after a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart. Because the procedure stimulates natural collagen production, results can continue to improve for several months.
Recovery is minimal, with only mild redness or sensitivity for a short period. By protecting your skin from the sun and maintaining good skincare, results can be long-lasting.
