Tighter,
smoother skin on the
body and face without
resorting to surgery.
This revolutionary skin
reshaping regimen uses
advanced Radio Frequency (RF) technology
to treat
sagging skin and cellulite non-invasively.
Accent™ RF
treatment effectively tightens loose skin,
promotes
healthy collagen production and improves
body
contours.
What
Parts of The Body Can Be Treated
With Radio Frequency?
RF treatments can be performed almost anywhere
on
the body. Popular treatments include skin
tightening
on the face, under eyes, jowls, neck, jaw
line and arms,
and cellulite or fat reduction on the abdomen,
thighs
and buttocks.
RF cannot be performed on patients with
pacemakers,
metal plates or pins, severe heart disease
or pregnant
or breast feeding women.

How
Does RF Work?
Heat energy is delivered deep into the
skin whilst the
skin’s surface is protected by cooling.The
heating has an
immediate effect by tightening the supportive
framework of the skin (by contraction of
collagen fibres
and tissue retraction) aiding re-modeling
and
rejuvenation.
Heating the dermis induces
a wound healing mechanism
which stimulates the production of collagen.This
acts as
a new deep foundation for the skin producing
further
tightening that becomes evident over
several months. RF
also facilitates cellulite and fat reduction
by improving
blood flow to the treated areas and by
mobilising fat
deposits, aiding the re-absorption and
drainage of fatty
deposits and retained fluids.
Does RF Treatment Hurt?
Patients often describe the sensation
as a ‘warm
massage’, there is generally no pain
and normal activities
can be resumed immediately.Treatments can
take from
15 minutes to several hours depending on
area being
treated.
How Many Treatments Will
I Need and
When Will I See Results?
Several sessions are required at 2
or 4 weekly intervals
depending on the treatment area. Some
immediate
tightening can often be seen, however,
due to the nature
of the treatment, it may be up to 3 months
before
results become evident. Results will
often be more
pronounced and longer lasting on patients
who are nonsmokers,
wear sun protection regularly, eat a
balanced
diet and get some exercise. |
