Non-Invasive Skin Tightening & Body Shaping (Accent)
What is
Skin Tightening
For a long time technology has looked for ways to give back to the skin its
youthful appearance. With radio frequency technology, something that was
impossible until not so long ago can now be achieved: the tightening and
contraction of skin without the necessity of surgery (Skin tightening).
How does it work?
It
produces a gradual heating of the skin, mainly working upon existing
collagen fibers, strengthening them and producing an effect in the
skin called collagen
genesis ( formation of new collagen), creating a skin tightening effect,
which in turn
reduces flaccidity ( sagging and loose skin).
What can I expect from this treatment?
The results can be noticed in two ways. Immediately after the first
session, the
contraction and tightening of the existing collagen is evident. In
addition, after a few
weeks the results will be accentuated, reaching the maximum effect
at the first three
weeks the results will be accentuated, reaching the maximum effect
at the first three
months, which is when the formation of new collagen is completed.
Facial Results
Facial skin tightening will produce results through the contraction
of the skin (lifting
effect), redefining the facial shape, raising cheekbones, eyebrows
and neck, and
reshaping the contour of the eyes.
Body Treatment
Similarly as to the facial area, the body treatment works with the
tightening of the skin,
improving the flaccidity of the skin tissue commonly caused by age,
pregnancies and
sudden loss or gain of weight.
The treatment can be performed in arms, abdomen, buttocks, and legs. The results are noticeable at the first session and you will immediately notice that your clothes fit better!
