How is Pellevé Distinguished from Other Skin Tightening Treatments?
Medical studies prove that Pellevé
is a safe and effective skin tightening treatment. It is a non-invasive
procedure and has minimal side effects and discomfort. Because this
treatment does not involve any surgery, hence, anesthesia
or skin cooling is not required, unlike other procedures. People
usually return to work after the completion of this treatment. It
involves the transfer of heat at the job area to stimulate collagen
production and contract the underlying skin. The increase in collagen
helps in setting skin free from wrinkles.
How Does Pellevé Work?
The
treatment uses radio frequency energy to penetrate deep into the skin.
This activity generates heat at the location where skin and fat layer
join. It stimulates collagen deep into the skin causing it to contract
and stimulate the growth of collagen. This new generation of collagen
results in tighter and younger looking skin. Several instances have
proved that nine out of 10 patients noticed significant benefits just
after one Pellevé sitting. Studies reveal that the 90% patients of this treatment observe its effects even after six months of the last session.
How Long Does the Pellevé Procedure Take?
For a full facial treatment, this procedure requires around 45 minutes to an hour. Because there's no anesthesia effect, this treatment fits comfortably in your schedule.
What Do I Need to Do Before Pellevé?
It
is advisable to stay hydrated before the application of this treatment.
Your doctor may advise you to stop tropical products or medications
which you may be intaking.
Is Pellevé Procedure Painful?
Not!
It is a virtually painless method of skin contraction. Many patients
comment that while they were under treatment, they felt it like a warm
massage.
What Precautions Do I Need to Take After Pellevé?
Your
doctor will direct you to wear an SPF 30 broad-spectrum sunscreen to
prevent future photo damage. It will also help you in maintaining the
results of the treatment.
Can Pellevé Treatment Be Combined with Any Other Cosmetic Method?
Many physicians combine Pellevé
with wrinkle relaxing agents and dermal fillers. Based on your skin
type, your doctor can decide the perfect set of combination, if required
to achieve your cosmetic goals.
