Pellevé’s unique radiofrequency technology is a very safe and effective method for non-invasive skin rejuvenation. This new treatment for wrinkle reduction, skin tightening and improvement in tone and texture of the skin is especially suitable for patients who fear injections or surgical procedures, as there is no need to go under the knife and no needles are involved.

The electromagnetic waves activate the collagen fibres in the hypodermis creating a heated treatment zone without damaging the epidermis. The heat intensifies through increased resistance in the lower skin layer creating new collagen over time which ultimately results in skin tightening. Therefore, there is no downtime for the patient or any recovery needed.

The advantages of Pellevé at a glance:

- non-surgical treatment
- no chemical additives applied
- minimal side effects
- no recovery time needed
- safe technology
- very good treatment results

Pellevé achieves very good results in facial wrinkle treatment, particularly in the area of eyelids, crow’s feet, upper lip and is also suitable for neck and décolleté. It can be applied on patients with light and dark skin tones and in contrast to other treatments it can also be offered during the summer.

In addition to the usage of a radiofrequency generator a Pellevé handpiece - size of applicator depends on area of face - is massaged in circular motions over the - already covered in layer of gel or cream - skin. Each facial area is treated for about 10-15 minutes. A full facial treatment lasts about 45 to 60 minutes and patients often find the treatment similar to a warm facial massage.

For optimal results a series of 3 treatments spaced about 4 weeks apart are recommended as well as a touch-up after 1 year.

In comparison to other radiofrequency cosmetic procedures like Thermage® Pellevé’s treatment is considerably shorter and more pleasant. However, the expected result is similar.
