As skin matures, it gradually loses collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid — the structural proteins that keep it firm, plump, and resilient. This natural process leads to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and a loss of facial contour. Non-surgical lifting procedures offer effective ways to slow this process and restore a more youthful appearance — without surgery, anaesthesia, or significant downtime.
What Makes a Procedure "Lifting"?
A lifting procedure addresses one or more of these concerns: firmness and tightening of lax skin, stimulation of new collagen and elastin, improved facial contour, and reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. The best non-surgical options work by stimulating the skin's own renewal processes rather than simply masking the signs of aging.
At iluexpert, we offer several distinct approaches, each suited to different skin concerns and stages of aging.
MANTIS Device Treatments: Technology-Driven Lifting
The MANTIS MR991 device platform combines multiple technologies — radiofrequency (RF), electroporation, microcurrents, EMS, LED, and vacuum — for professional-grade skin remodelling.
MANTIS VIXO Face Lifting uses RF and EMS to tighten facial contours, stimulate collagen, and visibly lift the jawline and cheeks. Recommended for clients experiencing early-to-moderate skin laxity. Results develop over 4–6 weeks as new collagen forms.
MANTIS MAXENERGY Face & Neck Lifting combines electroporation and RF for deeper tissue remodelling. Ideal for more advanced laxity and clients wanting visible contouring results. Packages of 6–10 sessions are recommended for sustained results.
Dermapen Microneedling: Collagen Induction
Dermapen microneedling uses ultra-fine needles to create thousands of micro-channels in the skin, triggering the skin's natural wound-healing response and stimulating collagen and elastin production. Over 4–8 weeks, this results in firmer, smoother skin with visibly reduced fine lines.
Microneedling is particularly effective for skin texture, early signs of aging, and shallow scarring. A course of 3–5 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart is typically recommended.
TIMECODE Professional Lifting Facials: Anti-Aging Without Downtime
The TIMECODE professional skincare range uses retinol, peptides, vitamin C, and growth factors to provide clinical-strength anti-aging results in a relaxing facial format.
TIMECODE Anti-Aging Facial delivers intensive peptide and retinol actives that visibly smooth fine lines, improve firmness, and brighten the complexion — with zero recovery time. A popular choice for clients seeking consistent maintenance results.
TIMECODE Retinol Yellow Peel takes the anti-aging approach deeper: a professional retinol + vitamin C peel that resurfaces the skin, improving tone, reducing fine lines, and boosting radiance.
Choosing the Right Approach
The ideal approach depends on your age, skin condition, and goals. As a general guide:
Early signs of aging (fine lines, mild loss of firmness): TIMECODE facial series, Dermapen course, or regular MANTIS VIXO sessions.
Moderate loss of firmness and contour: MANTIS MAXENERGY sessions or a Dermapen + TIMECODE combination.
Skin texture and resurfacing: Rose de Mer coral peel or Dermapen microneedling.
Our cosmetologists will recommend the right approach based on a personal skin assessment. Book a consultation at iluexpert in Tallinn to find your ideal lifting plan.
