If you want to achieve dramatic results in the tone and contour
of your skin without the risks and recovery required by surgical
options, ReFirme may be right for you.
ReFirme is a safe, non-invasive, therapy that
dramatically repairs skin laxity and reduces fine lines.
This new and exciting treatment option leaves skin smoother, firmer,
and more youthful without the risks and recovery required by surgical
procedures. Results are natural looking and require a
minimal amount of maintenance to keep you looking your best.
ReFirme utilizes the latest advances in aesthetic
restoration technology to tighten the skin while restoring volume
and contour through the production of new collagen. ReFirme is
the only skin tightening treatment that combines the use of
both infrared light and radio frequency technology to significantly
improve the skin’s tone and elasticity.
When applied to the skin, the infrared light heats the tissue of
the skin. The heat acts as a conductor to allow the radio frequency
to penetrate the dermal layers more deeply and easily. As
the radio frequency energy permeates the tissues it causes the
skin to contract and tighten while stimulating collagen production
for a period of at least 90 days, a process called Collagen Remodeling. As
the collagen continues to reproduce, you will notice significant
improvements in the tone and contour of your skin as it becomes
tighter and firmer.
ReFirme is a safe, non-invasive therapy approved
by the FDA. There is little or no risk of serious complications
from ReFirme treatment. In very rare cases, some may experience
swelling around the treated area. The most common side effects
experienced by our clients are redness and mild tenderness in treated
areas. All of these side effects are temporary and should disappear
within a few days.
The length of the treatment time depends on the
area treated. In general, treatment time is approximately 45 minutes.
Following the treatment, no recovery time is necessary and you
will be able to return to your daily activities. As a result, you
can easily schedule your ReFirme treatment during your lunch hour
or between other appointments.
Because of the combination of infrared light
and radio frequency energy used in ReFirme therapy, the treatment
is painless. No sedation is required, only an application
of topical anesthetic cream to keep clients completely comfortable
during the treatment.
While many clients experience an immediate improvement,
an initial series of three treatments is recommended for clients
to receive the optimal results of ReFirme therapy. Advanced skin
laxity may require five treatments. Ideally, treatments will
be administered once every 30 days for three months. This treatment
plan has been proven to achieve more dramatic and longer lasting
results.
Following ReFirme treatment, we recommend that
our clients practice optimal skin care to maintain results. This
includes avoiding excessive sun and UV exposure, using gentle cleansers,
effective hydrating moisturizers and applying a daily SPF 30 sunscreen.
Conscientious skin care extends the effects of Collagen Remodeling,
maximizing the benefits of the ReFirme treatment and will ultimately
increase the length of time between maintenance sessions. In
most cases, when skin is well taken care of, clients can enjoy
the results of ReFirme therapy for up to 18-24 months before maintenance
treatments are needed.
