Frequently Asked Questions

The Butterfly Facelift is the only non-surgical facelift in Orange County that combines five proven skin-tightening technologies — radiofrequency, ultrasound, microcurrent, LED light therapy, and lymphatic drainage — in a single 2.5-hour session. It uses your body's own collagen response for visible, natural-looking results with zero surgery and zero injections.

Botox and fillers involve injecting foreign substances into the face. The Butterfly Facelift uses only energy and touch — stimulating your body's own collagen to lift and firm the skin from within. There are no needles, no foreign substances, and no risk of looking overdone.

The Butterfly Facelift was invented by James Hooper, who has over 20 years of experience in non-surgical facial rejuvenation. James has been featured on Dr. Oz, The Doctors, and LA Channel 11 News for his pioneering work.

Newport Beach Skin Tightening is located at 3151 Airway Ave, Bldg K106, Costa Mesa, CA. We serve all of Orange County including Newport Beach, Irvine, Laguna Beach, Huntington Beach, and surrounding areas.

The Butterfly Facelift is ideal for adults experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity, jowling, drooping brows, loose neck skin, or general loss of facial volume and contour. A complimentary consultation with James will confirm whether you're a good candidate.

Most patients notice visible improvement immediately after treatment. Your results will continue to improve over the following 3–6 months as collagen rebuilds and remodels naturally.

Results typically last 12–18 months, depending on the individual's skin condition, age, and lifestyle. Many patients choose to return annually to maintain their results.

Most patients achieve their desired result in a single session. For more significant concerns, James may recommend a series of treatments. This will be discussed in detail during your consultation.

A full Butterfly Facelift session takes approximately 2.5 hours. The Mini Butterfly Facelift for targeted areas typically takes 60–90 minutes.

There is absolutely no downtime. You can return to work, social activities, and exercise immediately following your treatment. Some patients experience mild redness or warmth for a few hours, which resolves on its own.

Come with clean skin free of heavy makeup. Stay well-hydrated in the days before your treatment. Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least a week prior.
