Skin tightening is a non-surgical way to help firm skin that has started to loosen with age, weight changes or sun exposure. At JuvyDerm, we use the Alma Accent Prime, which combines radiofrequency and ultrasound energy to gently heat the deeper layers of your skin. That controlled warmth can help stimulate collagen and tighten existing fibres, so skin along the jawline, cheeks, neck, arms, abdomen and other areas can look firmer and smoother over a series of sessions. Because it's non-invasive, most clients return to their day right away.
This treatment is Led by Juvy Terbio, an aesthetic specialist with over 15 years of experience, with medical oversight from Dr. Vanessa Terbio-Fernandez, a board-certified dermatologist. JuvyDerm has cared for over 5,000 clients in NE Calgary, and their Google reviews speak for themselves. We begin with a free consultation to understand your goals and confirm skin tightening is the right fit, so you have a clear, honest picture before you begin. Results vary from person to person.
Why choose JuvyDerm
No surgery, no downtime
Accent Prime works on the surface without incisions or needles, so most clients walk out and carry on with their day. It's a comfortable, non-invasive option for people not ready for a surgical lift.
Firmer jawline and face
Radiofrequency and ultrasound energy target skin laxity along the jawline, cheeks and neck. Many clients notice a firmer, more contoured look as collagen renews, though results build gradually and vary.
Face and body versatility
The same technology can help firm skin on the abdomen, arms, thighs and other areas, making it a flexible choice whether your goal is a tighter jawline or smoother, firmer body skin.
Comfortable and supervised
Most clients describe the treatment as a warm, relaxing massage. Every session is performed by our clinical team with board-certified dermatologist oversight, so comfort and safety stay front and centre.
What to expect
Free consultation: We review the areas you'd like to firm, discuss realistic outcomes, and build a personalized plan with transparent pricing, all at no cost and with no pressure.
Your treatment: Your clinician glides the Accent Prime handpiece over the area, delivering gentle, deep warmth. Most sessions feel like a warm massage and take roughly 30 to 45 minutes depending on the area.
Your series: Many clients do a series of about 4 to 6 sessions spaced a couple of weeks apart, with your exact plan confirmed at your consultation based on your skin and goals.
Aftercare: There's little to no downtime. Skin may look slightly pink and feel warm for a short while. You can usually return to normal activities immediately, and we'll recommend good hydration and daily SPF.

What it helps with
Frequently asked questions
How much does skin tightening cost in Calgary?
Pricing depends on the area you're treating and how many sessions you need, since a jawline plan differs from a full-abdomen plan. We provide clear, personalized pricing at your free consultation with no obligation. To help spread the cost, we offer financing through Medicard and Sezzle.
Is skin tightening painful?
Most clients find Accent Prime comfortable and describe it as a warm, relaxing massage rather than a painful procedure. You'll feel gentle heat as the device works, and your clinician adjusts the intensity to keep you comfortable throughout. There's no numbing needed and typically no downtime afterward.
How many sessions will I need and when will I see results?
Many clients do a series of about 4 to 6 sessions spaced roughly two weeks apart. Because much of the tightening comes from new collagen forming, results develop gradually over the weeks and months following your series. Some notice subtle firming sooner. Results vary based on your skin and age.
Is Accent Prime safe for all skin tones?
Radiofrequency and ultrasound energy target deeper skin layers rather than surface pigment, which generally makes Accent Prime a suitable option across a wide range of skin tones. That said, we always start with a consultation so our clinicians, with dermatologist oversight, can confirm it's right for you.
How long do the results last?
Many clients enjoy their firmer look for a year or more, but skin tightening doesn't stop the natural aging process. Sun exposure, especially in sunny Calgary, and time will continue to affect your skin. Occasional maintenance sessions and daily SPF can help you hold onto your results longer. Outcomes vary.
