Mr Reza Nassab offers FaceTite in Manchester for people with early jowls, a softening jawline or mild looseness under the chin. Consultations take place at CLNQ in Deansgate Square, and because FaceTite is usually performed under local anaesthetic, treatment may also be carried out there rather than at Deansgate Hospital, with follow-up appointments in Manchester throughout your recovery.
FaceTite in brief
FaceTite is a minimally invasive radiofrequency treatment for the lower face and neck. A slim probe is introduced under the skin through a few tiny entry points, and controlled heat is delivered between the probe and an external electrode. The aim is to reduce small pockets of fat and encourage the skin to contract, giving a more defined jawline and neck. It suits mild to moderate laxity rather than heavy folds of skin. Full details are on the main FaceTite page.
Consultation at CLNQ, Deansgate Square
Your first appointment is with Mr Nassab at CLNQ, Deansgate Square, Manchester. He will ask what bothers you most, whether that is the jowls, the jawline or the area under the chin, and examine your skin quality, fat distribution and underlying structure. He will explain whether FaceTite is likely to help or whether a mini facelift, neck lift or full facelift would suit you better. Photographs are taken for your records. The consultation costs £150 and is charged separately. Appointments are also available at CLNQ in Knutsford.
Treatment day
- Venue: under local anaesthetic, FaceTite may be carried out at CLNQ, Deansgate Square; if sedation is planned, it takes place at Deansgate Hospital in Manchester city centre.
- Marking: Mr Nassab marks the treatment zones and the areas along the jaw to protect.
- Anaesthetic: local anaesthetic is used, sometimes with sedation, as agreed in advance.
- Treatment: usually one to two hours, depending on how many areas are treated.
- Home: you leave the same day wearing a chin and neck compression garment.
If you have sedation, you will need someone to take you home and stay with you overnight.
Follow-up in Manchester
Aftercare continues locally. You will usually be seen within the first week to check the entry points and remove any stitches, then again at a few weeks to review swelling and any firmness. A later appointment, a few months after treatment, assesses how the skin has tightened. The team can be contacted between visits if you have any concerns.
Getting ready for treatment
A little preparation helps your recovery go smoothly:
- Nicotine: stop smoking and vaping nicotine for several weeks before and after treatment, as it slows healing.
- Medicines: tell the team about blood-thinning medicines and supplements; do not stop prescribed medicine without advice.
- Diary: clear the first week of important social or work commitments, as swelling can be visible.
- At home: set up pillows to keep your head raised and have loose, front-opening tops ready.
Travelling from the North West
Patients come to Manchester for FaceTite from across Greater Manchester, including Salford, Stockport, Bolton and Bury, and from Lancashire, Merseyside and Yorkshire. As FaceTite is a day-case treatment, most people travel home the same day. If you live further away, the team can help schedule follow-up appointments sensibly around your recovery.
Recovery at home
Expect swelling and some bruising for the first week, with most people ready to return to work after five to seven days. The garment is worn day and night at first, then at night for a further week or two. Tightening develops gradually over six to twelve months. The FaceTite recovery guide explains each stage in more detail, and the risks guide sets out what is normal and when to call.
Cost of FaceTite in Manchester
FaceTite costs from £7,500 including the treatment, facility, garment and routine follow-up. The £150 consultation is separate. See the FaceTite cost guide for what affects the price and details of finance through Chrysalis Finance.
