WHAT IS FACETITE? 

Facetite can provide mini facelift-like results without the associated scars, downtime, and cost. 

It is performed under local anesthesia or light sedation in the office procedure room with only two to five days of downtime. 

Results will be seen immediately and continue to improve up to a 6 to 12-month period.

FaceTite’s utilizes Radio-Frequency Assisted Lipolysis (RFAL) that is contained in a thin wand that is placed underneath the skin. 

This allows Dr. Kim to safely deliver energy that permanently destroys fat cells and simultaneously tightens the skin of the lower face and neck.

‘It is performed under local anesthesia or light sedation in the office procedure room with only two to five days of downtime.’

It comes after Ireland shared a candid post about being in the ‘most freeing mental headspace’ since she packed up and left Los Angeles for the Oregon coast, where she now lives with her musician boyfriend RAC. 

Inspired by an Instagram message Camila Cabello wrote last week, Ireland penned a lengthy post detailing everything from her own issues with body image, to toxic online behavior and mental health.

She said: ‘To being that I am a bad b**** and that I’m done taking s*** from people on the Internet now, I know of course the heat will never cease to exist. I know the more I put myself out there the more people find reasons to pick me apart. But that’s OK!!’

She added: ‘Of course, I am nowhere near as famous as Camilla, but I relate to every word of her post. I have been called some version of fat, ugly, worthless and irrelevant by grown adults on the Internet since I was a kid.’

Ireland has past been candid about her battle with eating disorders, and said it was ‘sad and pathetic’ that people would rip others apart online, especially ‘women doing this to other women.’

‘I have spent way too many years starving myself, binging, purging, measuring, stepping on scales, spitting food into my purse and all around ruining my body because some troll told me I’ll never be as thin and beautiful as my mother.’

Ireland said that while she has her ‘bad days,’ she ‘romantically’ loves food and is proud of her physique the way it is.

‘Sure, I have my insecurities,’ she continued. ‘I know a lot of you like to assume I am filled with lip filler, breast implants and botox, but even though there’s absolutely nothing wrong with any of those things, I am not, but HELL! All ya had to do was ask!’

She noted she was going to try an ‘in-office procedure’ to see if it helped with her insecurity surrounding her chin, and she was ‘shameless’ about the process.

‘And the most glorious part, is I am not posting revealing pictures, getting treatments, and doing jack s*** for any of you. It’s all for me,’ she said.
