Refirme™ for Skin Tightening
The Refirme skin tightening procedure, via wrinkle reduction, features revolutionary
elos technology that enables you to comfortably achieve a more youthful,
tightened, and lifted appearance without enduring downtime.
The
Refirme applicator is intended for skin tightening. Collagen and
elastin depletion in the dermis result
in the loss of dermal volume, creating
laxity and sagging of the skin. The
Refirme procedure stimulates long
term collagen synthesis as well as
the tightening of existing collagen
fibers, giving an immediate firmed
appearance.
The procedure uses a combination
of gentle pulsed infrared light
(wavelengths 7000-2000nm) and bipolar
radio frequency (RF) to provide
deep dermal heating, up to 4-5 mm
in depth.
Effect: Initially, there is an immediate contraction of existing collagen fibers, but with time, the laxity of the brow, jowls, neck and cheek areas will continue to improve due to the delayed collagen remodeling response.
How Does Refirme skin tightening work?
The combined Bi-polar frequency and Light energies of elos technology precisely
heat the dermal tissue within the target treatment area. This stimulates
collagen production and produces a firming effect in lax skin. Fine wrinkles
are reduced, noticeable lifting can be observed and the texture of your
skin becomes more elastic.
Is Refirme skin tightening for me?
Refirme skin tightening technology is safe and effective for all skin types.
When can I expect to see results?
Most patients see gradual and cumulative results throughout the Refirme skin
tightening treatments. The total number of sessions depends on your skin's
condition. Dr. Nguyen can help you establish a personalized treatment schedule.
Does it hurt?
Refirme is a gentle , comfortable treatment requiring no downtime. Most patients
return to normal activities immediately after the treatment.
