Pellevé™ is the latest innovation in non-invasive skin tightening for the treatment of mild to moderate facial wrinkles. With Pellevé, you can look and feel refreshed—naturally.

Pellevé precisely delivers energy to the dermal tissue using advanced radiowave technology to induce collagen contraction without damaging the epidermis. The result is noticeable improvement in skin quality, with lasting improvements for up to six months.

Elegant results…                                

Non-invasive No anesthetic required No skin cooling needed Minimal discomfort

What is Pelleve’?

Pelleve’ is the most significant advance in nonsurgical skin tightening available. Using continuous, high frequency, radio wave energy (RF), Pelleve’ generates heat in the skin, which causes it to contract. Aging and sun damage cause the collagen in the skin to become less dense and less tightly bound. Fibrous bands that hold your skin firmly to the muscle also weaken, causing the skin to lose definition and sag. Pelleve’ heats this collagen to a point that it can release and recontract, resulting in tighter skin without pain.

 
How does it work?

Pelleve’delivers constant, gradual energy, causing heat to build up where the skin and fat layer come together. The increasing heat near the skin’s surface modifies the collagen resulting in denser, tighter skin.

Does Pelleve’ burn the skin?

No. A nutrient-enriched dispersion gel is applied to the skin throughout the procedure, keeping the surface of the skin cooler than the deep dermis where the heat is concentrated. At the same time the energy drives essential nutrients, such as hyaluronic acid, DMAE and phospholipids, into the skin as the gel is absorbed.

If I need filler, why should I get the area treated with heat?

If you have a visible wrinkle line, crease or groove, filler will help. But those wrinkles mean your skin has lost its integrity, firmness, thickness and elasticity and needs to be replenished first. Hard V-shaped lip lines, for example, can be softened to a soft U-shape with Pelleve’. This leads to a smoother look once filler is injected. Nasolabial folds, glabellar lines and marionette lines can be reduced to a soft, shallow groove by reducing the thickness of the high side of the fold. Crow’s feet can be softened by flattening the high ridges and firming the low areas of the creases. Used before overall volume restoration with dermal fillers, Pelleve’ compresses the subdermal plane to achieve firmer results with less filler.
