When sagging skin or a soft jawline starts to bother you, you don’t always need surgery to restore definition. FaceTite and Laser Lift at CSLC offer powerful skin tightening and contouring in a one-time, minimally invasive procedure — with results that can last for years.
Unlike fillers or threads, these treatments address the underlying structure, tightening skin and reducing fat under the chin or along the jawline. Dr. Lo has performed over 1,000 Laser Lifts since 2009 and trained with world-renowned plastic surgeons, making CSLC one of the most experienced practices in the country.
Available nearby in Traverse City, any patients travel from across Michigan and Florida for this treatment — schedule your consultation today to see if FaceTite or Laser Lift is right for you.
For stubborn areas that don’t respond to diet and exercise, CSLC offers precision body contouring with minimally invasive liposuction and BodyTite skin tightening. This combination not only removes unwanted fat but also contracts skin, leaving you smoother and more toned.
Because CSLC providers are highly trained in advanced contouring, you can trust your results will look natural, not “carved.” Popular areas include the abdomen, flanks, arms, and thighs — but every plan is personalized.

Traverse City Laser Hair Removal
A small change that
frees up your whole routine
Maybe it’s the razor burn. Or the constant maintenance. The self-consciousness. Or maybe the feeling of always needing to “get ready.” Laser hair removal isn’t just about smooth skin—it’s about time back, comfort reclaimed, and confidence without the second-guessing. At CSLC Traverse City, we treat this like the decision it is, not a quick service on a menu. We’ll talk about what matters most to you—skin sensitivity, lifestyle, and long-term results—then build a treatment plan around it.
