The treatment involves sending energy to the layers below the skin surface to stimulate collagen formation. Collagen is a naturally occurring protein that adds tone and tightness to skin. Once stimulated, collagen begins to form and tighten for weeks and months. Treatments are cumulative – each subsequent treatment firming and toning more and more. Others will be asking you why you’re looking healthier and more vibrant. Typically, a series of treatments are performed 2-4 weeks apart and then once every 3-6 months for maintenance. 

Different forms of energy are used to stimulate collagen formation including ultrasound. infrared and radio frequency. Various devices are now on the market, differentiating themselves by using additional technologies to potentiate their effectiveness and comfort including cooling tips,vacuum suction and variable frequencies. 

Treatments are comfortable, pain-free and effective – usually taking only 20-30 minutes each. With no downtime. Patients usually notice immediate tightening followed by progressive and on going tightening over subsequent weeks and months.
