At FAC, we can help give you tighter, firmer skin without surgery. We offer Pelleve skin tightening treatments to tighten the skin of the face to alleviate wrinkles and fine lines. Pelleve skin tightening is a procedure that involves applying constant and gradual radiofrequency energy to the skin. This energy causes heat to build up where the fat and skin layer meet stimulating collagen production. As you all know, collagen product is something we want to stimulate more as the aging process begins. Think of Pelleve as a wrinkle reduction treatment.
Due to Pelleve helping stimulate collagen production, it improves the appearance of a more youthful-looking skin. One of the reasons people’s skin start to sag as they get older is due to a decrease in collagen production. This is a natural process as we age.
Pelleve also helps reduce the appearance of “crow’s feet” which are wrinkles that develop around the corners of the eyelids. Additionally, Pelleve skin tightening can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles around the corners of the mouth and nose. These wrinkles are often referred to as laugh lines or smile lines.
Not only does Pelleve deliver amazing results, but the results can last a long time. In fact, the results of Pelleve skin tightening can last more than six months. Visible results are typically noticed after just one treatment. However, some patients require multiple treatments before they get the results they want. Our medical specialists will work with you to determine how many treatments we recommend for optimal results and what works best for your skin type.
It is estimated that 90% of patients continue to see improvements one month after their treatment. 87% of patients continue to see improvement six months after getting Pelleve.
Pelleve skin tightening was first approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2009. It has been clinically proven to be effective and safe. As a non-invasive procedure, it does not require the use of any needles. The doctor is also not required to make any incisions. The chances of side effects are low if this treatment is administered by a trained health care professional – like our staff at Facial Aesthetic Concepts.
Most patients do not have any pain during or after this procedure. Patients can return to their normal activities after the treatment is completed and enjoy the rest of their day.
Pelleve skin tightening can be performed on all skin colors and types. The amount of time it takes to perform Pelleve skin tightening can vary from patient to patient. However, in many cases, the procedure can be completed in 45 minutes or less.
Keep in mind, you can also combine other treatmends with Pelleve. A few that work well are Botox, Sculptra, Restylane, Radiesse, and Juvederm for unparalleled results.
