The Titan Procedure is a safe, non-surgical process that uses an infrared
light source to tighten skin and reverse the signs of aging. The Titan heats the
dermis to cause collagen contraction while preserving the epidermis through
continuous cooling. In addition, Titan can stimulate long-term collagen
rebuilding that leaves patients with younger looking skin. Excellent long term
results are Obtained for those who wants to tighten their skin, Correct asymetry,

April 14, 2005 -- Dr. Mahaveer Mehta Medical Center, Dubai, United
Arab Emirates is one of the first in this part of world to have latest safe
light based solution for aging skin. The Titan Procedure treats lax and
redundant skin throughout the body including the abdomen, thighs and underarms
and is also used to tone, lift and tighten skin on the face and neck.
The Titan Procedure:
Safe, comfortable, non-surgical treats lax and redundant skin throughout the
body - can stimulate long-term collagen rebuilding. Although non-ablative
radiofrequency can produce skin tightening, significant pain from its
application limits the patient population of possible candidates to those with
sufficiently high pain tolerance and those willing to undergo significant pain
during the procedure. Topical anesthetics are only modestly helpful in lessening
this pain. Injectable anesthetics are not recommended due to the possibility of
altering the local impedance of tissues, causing an unwanted burn. Producing
painless skin tightening via non-ablative radiofrequency is not yet possible
unless the patient is deeply sedated or receives systemic anesthesia. A new
non-ablative medical device: Titan (Cutera, Inc. Brisbane, CA) has been
successful in producing skin contraction leading to lifting of eyebrows and/or
improvement of lower face and neck skin laxity. This device has also been used
successfully in other body areas such as abdomen, arms and thighs. Immediate
changes have been noticed in the vast majority of patients. The degree of pain
is quite low, to the point of needing no anesthesia. Patient satisfaction has
been remarkable. There is no down time and no incisions or scars either.
Additionally, the patient will look like himself after the procedure. The
results have a remarkable natural look which, plastic surgery rarely can match.
The patient will look less tired, with a freshened look. The skin contraction
achieved is in the order of 1 to 3 millimeters. It may not sound dramatic, but
the changes induced by such contraction are perceptible and significant when it
comes to eyebrow lifting or fading of the naso-labial fold. Follow-up visits
show that the improvement has been maintained and even increased. In fact, the
degree of improvement has not diminished during follow-up in any of our
patients. Post operative patients can go back to their normal activities right
away. Erythema is sometimes seen in patients with skin type I, but it usually
fades within an hour. Occasionally blisters develop. They are usually isolated
single vesicles, probably the result of incomplete skin contact with the cooling
sapphire crystal during pulses. When they do happen, the patient should avoid
any picking or other manipulation. These vesicles usually resolve without marks.
The new Titan system from Cutera has a similar thermal profile in ex-vivo skin
specimens detected by thermal photography. It also has significant advantages
over non-ablative radiofrequency. For one thing it has a multi-second pulse
which provides a gentle and sustained skin heating that clinically is much less
painful and has similar if not better clinical results as compared to Thermage.
The safety profile is very good with adequate physician training and the results
are as satisfactory as can be expected with any modern technology in this field.
