skin tightening

Radiofrequency waves (Pellevé, Ellman International) heat the deep dermis while a cooling system protects the skin’s surface. Collagen in thin skin may contract immediately. In the weeks following the treatment the dermis will produce more collagen and contract slightly. The treatment must be repeated to be satisfactorily effective. Because the upper skin layers are only very lightly stimulated, daily activities can be resumed almost immediately.
