If you’re noticing sagging cheeks, deepening lines around the nose and mouth, or tired eyes due to facial volume loss, you’re not alone. In Atlanta, where the humid subtropical climate and exposure to sun can accelerate signs of aging, many residents are turning to non-surgical solutions to refresh their appearance. At Kalos Facial Plastic Surgery, we specialize in helping Atlanta-area patients look and feel their best with advanced treatments such as Profound® RF skin tightening—a scientifically proven, non-invasive option for lifting and contouring the midface. Led by Dr. Benjamin C. Stong, a highly respected double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, our practice combines clinical excellence with a deep understanding of the aging process. With a patient-centered approach and a proven track record of success, we are committed to guiding you through your facial rejuvenation journey with personalized care, local insight, and lasting results.

Why Choose Profound for Cheek Lifting?

Profound RF is a non-surgical skin tightening treatment that uses microneedling combined with radiofrequency energy to stimulate the body’s production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid—three essential elements for firm, youthful skin. Unlike temporary fillers or surgical facelifts, Profound offers a long-term solution with a single treatment and minimal downtime.

Benefits of Profound RF Cheek Lift:

  • Lifts sagging cheeks and enhances facial contours
  • Smooths deep lines around the mouth (nasolabial folds)
  • Minimizes the appearance of under-eye bags by lifting midface tissues
  • Improves skin elasticity and overall firmness
  • Promotes natural volume and hydration

According to recent aesthetic market studies, over 36% of cosmetic procedures in the Atlanta metro area are now non-surgical. Profound RF is quickly becoming a top choice among patients seeking visible results without going under the knife. With a 94% satisfaction rate, it stands out as one of the most effective solutions available.

What to Expect During Treatment

The Profound procedure is performed in-office with local anesthesia. Using a hand-held microneedling device, radiofrequency energy is delivered to the deeper layers of skin, stimulating collagen remodeling from within. The treatment typically lasts 45–60 minutes, with minimal recovery time—most patients experience mild swelling or bruising for 3–5 days.

Your Treatment Timeline:

  • Initial results in 2–4 weeks as skin begins tightening
  • Full effects visible at 6–9 months as collagen and elastin rebuild
  • Long-lasting results that can remain for up to 2–3 years

Whether you’re a professional in Midtown, a parent in Brookhaven, or retired in Sandy Springs, Profound offers a low-downtime option that fits your lifestyle and keeps you looking vibrant.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for Profound if:

  • You have mild to moderate skin laxity in the cheeks or midface
  • You want natural results without surgery or fillers
  • You are in good overall health
  • You prefer a single-treatment option with long-term benefits

During your one-on-one consultation, Dr. Stong will perform a detailed facial analysis and help you determine whether Profound is the best treatment for your specific goals. If needed, he may recommend complementary procedures such as dermal fillers or laser therapy for enhanced results.
