Dermatologist in Washington, DC describes non-invasive skin tightening with Pellevé

Throughout the process of aging, patients will begin to notice the development of fine lines, wrinkles and folds that result from skin laxity. This is due to the loss of collagen. Collagen naturally occurs in the skin and gives that youthful firmness, though after the age of 30, we begin to lose it over the course of time, resulting in thinner, sagging skin and a steady increase of wrinkles and fine lines. Patients can now combat these signs of aging and enjoy facial rejuvenation with skin tightening procedures in the Washington, DC area. At the Center for Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery, Dr. Cheryl Burgess, a board certified dermatologist, can provide patients with a non-invasive procedure known as Pellevé.

Pellevé is a skin tightening treatment that can offer patients a way of rejuvenating their appearance by targeting the primary cause: skin laxity. Pellevé uses radiofrequency energy to target the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production and therefore reduce skin laxity. This technology works by providing gradual yet noticeable results over the course of several months, making many patients feel as though they are turning back the hands of time. Pellevé can be used on any area of the face where skin laxity is a concern and enjoy facial rejuvenation without plastic surgery.

Pellevé was approved by the FDA in 2009 and it continues to provide patients with a way of rejuvenating their skin without having to undergo invasive surgeries with a plastic surgeon. Now, patients can use radiofrequency energy to achieve amazing results with no downtime—avoiding the healing process and scarring often associated with plastic surgery.
