Skin Tightening, Toning and Rejuvenation

Non invasive skin tightening, toning and rejuvenation using Nd:Yag Laser and Pelleve™ for the face and neck.

Unlike prior generations, today’s young adults are proactive about their health and appearance. They want to look as young as they feel. With increasing numbers, our younger, more active patients are having the early signs of aging such as “crows feet” and frown lines. They are requesting non invasive, non-surgical procedures that have little if any down time.

By combining infrared light and radio frequency, we provide skin toning, tightening and texture improvement that patients are seeking. The one common ingredient every skin rejuvenation procedure has right now is a claim to make more collagen and tighten skin.

The dual procedure includes a first pass with the long pulsed Nd:YAG 1064nm infrared laser with a cooling device. This laser has a deep level of penetration, and it stimulates collagen production. You see more collagen stimulation with more treatments. The best results are not seen for a few months because the collagen remodelling that occurs with combining the two machines can continue for up to a year after the last treatment.

The second pass is an intense radio frequency energy Pelleve™ to heat and tighten facial skin and skin around the neck.

Pelleve™ (ellman) is the latest of non-ablative procedures for skin rejuvenation. It is not laser. It is a Patented Radio Frequency System. The advanced Cool-Gel incorporates a cryo-gel to cool the skin`s outer surface while the RF energy slightly heats and modifies the soft tissues beneath the skin. This causes the collagen to contract and tighten. This is an office procedure that is quick with virtually no down time.

Benefits of Pelleve™ over other procedures and surgery

  • It is non-invasive. There is no incision and no tissue damage.
  • A level of control can be achieved that is difficult with other treatments.
  • There is no bleeding or bruising and the risk of scarring is minimal.
  • It can be combined with others rejuvenation modalities.

Recovery

Basically there is no recovery time as necessary in invasive cosmetic surgery. You may resume all normal activities immediately. Slight redness may be seen for less than an hour and no more than 24 hours. The full effect of your treatment develops over a few months following the procedure and can be expected to last for one to three years. This varies from patient to patient. As with any cosmetic procedure, the results can be expected to fade gradually over time, at which time the procedure may be repeated if desired.

FAQ

Is Pelleve™ safe?

Yes. Pelleve™ has been improved and refined over years of experience with improved treatment methods and applications of RF energy. Ellman has marketed its RF energy devices since 1969.

Is it painful?

Pelleve™ can be performed without any anaesthesia, however some patients may want oral medication for the heat sensation. When the Pelleve™ probe is energized, patients feel brief, mild to intense heat in the treatment site followed by the immediate cooling effect of cryo-gel.

What type of results can I expect?

Facial skin and skin along the neck can be tightened providing a mild, non-surgical browlift or facelift effect. This treatment is often used for sagging jowls. The tightening effect may be used to firm up loose or sagging tissue in other parts of the body such as abdomen or legs. Most patients see results immediately. However, the results may be gradual over a three to six month period as the skin tightens and more new collagen is formed. Depending on the area treated, the skin laxity and your desired results, more than one treatment may be required.
