Skin tightening and non invasive face lift
Santa Monica California
Refirme, made by Syneron, is a safe, new, non-invasive procedure used to treat deep wrinkles and fine lines while firming and toning the skin at the same time. With Refirme, you can instantly lift the jowls, chin, cheeks, brow, and body with virtually no downtime or discomfort.
Refirme uses ELOS technology, which combines broadband infrared lights and radiofrequency energy to achieve skin firmness and wrinkle reduction. Anyone who wishes for tighter skin is a candidate for this procedure.
The procedure itself requires no anesthesia or sedatives and there is no downtime associated with Refirme. Patients are immediately able to resume normal activities after their treatment. Most patients also report being pain free while experiencing the Refirme process.
Your doctor will most likely apply a topical anesthetic to the affected area to ensure your comfort. The process takes about 45 minutes to an hour and most patients see results after the very first treatment.
