Brighten & Tighten
Sagging, rough, and discolored skin are among the most common concerns of our patients. At MI Skin Dermatology Center, our Brighten & Tighten package offers a strategic approach to skin tightening and wrinkle treatment in Washington, DC. Our experienced dermatologists curate a personalized treatment plan that restores radiance, improves firmness, and helps you feel more confident in your skin.
What’s Included: Comprehensive Skin Rejuvenation
Depending on your needs, your Brighten & Tighten treatment at MI Skin Dermatology Center may include:
- Laser skin resurfacing to smooth rough skin texture and softens wrinkles and fine lines using Fractional CO2 & UltraClear® laser, Fraxel®, AVAVA™, or Tixel®.
- Skin tightening to improve mild to moderate skin laxity with Ultherapy®, AVAVA, Tixel, Exilis Ultra™ or Genius® RF microneedling, or XERF™.
- Biostimulatory injectables to stimulate collagen, elastin, and other essential proteins that support long-term skin health using Sculptra® and RADIESSE®.
- Light dermal filler to restore subtle volume and enhance overall balance using JUVÉDERM®, Restylane® or RHA® Collection product families.
Instead of just one treatment, this combination works together to improve your skin’s overall firmness and radiance.

What To Expect: Customized Skin Rejuvenation Treatment Plans
Our dermatology experts carefully sequence your Brighten & Tighten plan to maximize results while minimizing downtime. Some treatments deliver an immediate boost in brightness and smoothness, while others, particularly biostimulatory injectables, work gradually by stimulating collagen production to promote healthy skin from the surface to the deeper layers.
As your skin rebuilds and strengthens over time, you can expect continued improvement in tone, texture, and firmness.
