Skin Tightening
There is nothing wrong with needing a little help aging gracefully. Over time, skin tends to lose its naturally smooth, tight texture, causing you to look older than you may want. If you are noticing loose, sagging neck or facial skin, you are not alone, and we have an excellent solution. ReFirme™ ST is an advanced system for quickly and easily achieving firmer, younger-looking skin in specific problem areas.
This revolutionary skin tightening procedure is performed by skilled professionals at our Long Beach, California medical spa, ImageRx®.
With the ReFirme™ ST technology, we will target and correct lax skin to create a refreshed, more youthful appearance. To learn more about ReFirme™ ST skin tightening, contact our Long Beach medical spa today.
How ReFirme™ ST Skin Tightening Works
The ReFirme™ ST system stimulates collagen growth through a controlled combination of infrared light and bipolar radiofrequency energies, which reach the dermal layer of skin. The outer layer of skin is then tightened and smoothed as the dermal layer, below the surface, is rebuilt from new collagen production.
The entire procedure lasts approximately 30 minutes. A topical anesthetic is applied to the treatment area, and then a cold gel is applied to the skin for enhanced comfort and to protect the top layer of skin. Next, the treatment applicator is used to send necessary pulses to specified problem areas.
After the treatment, a mild redness may be visible, which is just a temporary side effect. Up to five total treatments are generally recommended every three to four weeks for optimal results.
