ReFrime Skin Tightening
Collagen: |
The main protein of connective tissue in humans. Responsible for skin strength and elasticity. Strengthens blood vessels and plays a role in tissue development.
Infrared Light:
Invisible electromagnetic light that has a longer wavelength than visible light and is detected most often by its heating effect.
Bi-Polar Radio Frequency (RF):
RF energy is drawn deep toward the preheated treatment area (target). The preheating of target by infrared light energy allows the RF energy to penetrate deeper and safely get better result.
ReFirme exclusively combines the two energies to achieve:
Ideal treatment outcome. Very low risk of side effects. Virtually no downtime.
Dermis:
Sensitive connective tissue layer of skin located below outer layer of skin. Combined energies precisely heat the dermal tissue within the target treatment area. Collagen production is stimulated and produces a firming effect in lax skin. Fine wrinkles are reduced. Noticeable lifting can be observed. Texture of skin becomes more smooth and elastic.
What results can I expect?
More than 1 treatment is needed. Individual results vary depending upon: - Medical history - Genetic factors.
How many procedures will I need?
Depending on individual factors.
How frequently will I need procedures?
Inform patient that individual procedure schedule will be discussed at the end of consultation.
What happens after each procedure?
ReFirme is a non-invasive procedure.
Does the procedure hurt?

Topical anesthetic/analgesia:
An agent used to numb the surface of the skin causing a loss of sensation.
