Radio Frequency - Pellevé
Available at our clinics in Swansea and Bristol, Defy Time is now able to offer this very effective treatment at a far more affordable price.
The preferred Radio-Frequency system used at our clinics is Pellevé, one of the latest non-ablative procedures for skin rejuvenation. The advanced Cool-Gel incorporates a cryo-gel to cool the skin's outer surface while the Radio frequency energy slightly heats and modifies the soft tissue beneath the skin. This causes the collagen to contract and tighten. This is an office procedure that is quick with virtually no down time. You can go back to work immediately.
Pellevé is very safe. It has been improved and refined over many years with improved treatment methods and applications of Radio-Frequency energy. It is a very well tolerated almost painless treatment which has no down time.
Facial skin and the skin along the neck can be tightened providing a mild, non-surgical brow lift or facelift effect. The 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 the abdomen or legs and it has recently been shown to significantly reduce the size of stretch marks.
Most patients see results immediately. However, the results may be gradual over a three to six week 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.
Treatment results last from 12 to 16 months. Your skin will continue to age as it has in the past and eventually you may wish to have another anti-ageing procedure.
