Many assume that invasive procedures are the only way to achieve firmer, younger-looking skin. However, non-surgical treatments like Pellevé® offer a safe and effective way to smooth wrinkles and tighten skin without needles, lasers, or downtime.
At Skin Deep Laser MD, Dr. Laura S. Riehm oversees all services, including Pellevé, an FDA-approved radiofrequency (RF) therapy that stimulates natural collagen production to improve skin elasticity and texture over time.
If you’re curious about how the process works, this blog explains what you can expect before, during, and after.
Before Your Pellevé Appointment
Ahead of your Pellevé session, you’ll meet with Dr. Riehm to discuss your skin concerns and determine if the treatment is right for you.
Arrive with clean skin – no makeup, lotions, or skincare products. This allows for better radiofrequency energy delivery to the targeted area.
During Your Session
The procedure usually lasts 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment location. Many people choose Pellevé to tighten skin on the face, particularly on the forehead, around the eyes, and the jawline.
You’ll feel a gentle warming sensation as the device is applied to your skin. It’s similar to a hot stone massage. The RF energy heats the skin’s deep layers and triggers the body’s natural collagen-building process.
Unlike services that use lasers or injectables, Pellevé is non-invasive. Because no needles or harsh lasers are involved, you can sit back and enjoy the experience.
After Your Treatment
Pellevé requires no recovery time. After the session, your skin may be pink or flushed, but this will fade within a few hours.
Since Pellevé stimulates collagen production, results develop gradually. Many patients see smoother, firmer skin within a few weeks, with continued improvement over the next several months.
Dr. Riehm often recommends a series of appointments spaced a few weeks apart for the best outcomes.
