Skin Tightening Q & A
Why do I need skin tightening?
As you get older, your skin produces less collagen and elastin, the two proteins responsible for keeping your skin firm, resilient, and smooth. As a result, your skin gradually loosens and becomes more susceptible to wrinkles and sagging skin. Noninvasive skin tightening with TempSure helps to reverse the effect of time and rejuvenate your appearance.
How does the TempSure system work?
TempSure supports multiple handpieces, allowing the team at Mmereole Health to customize your treatment using the TempSure Envi, TempSure Firm, or TempSure Vitalia device. All the TempSure options tighten your skin using radiofrequency (RF) energy.
During your treatment, TempSure sends RF waves safely through your skin and into the tissues below the surface. The RF energy heats the structures under your skin, triggering collagen and elastin production, and your skin regains the tightness that’s naturally lost as you get older.
What problem areas can TempSure treat?
Though they all use RF energy, by design, the TempSure devices treat different body areas:
TempSure Envi
This handpiece is designed to treat the delicate skin on your face and neck, where it diminishes fine lines and wrinkles and tightens your skin.
TempSure Firm
The TempSure Firm treats your abdomen, arms, buttocks, and thighs, where it tightens your skin and reduces the appearance of cellulite.
TempSure Vitalia
The Vitalia is specially shaped to treat a woman’s external genitalia and the tissues inside the vagina. As the tissues tighten, women find relief from vaginal laxity and dryness, problems that often occur after menopause.
What should I expect during and after skin tightening?
Skin tightening treatments are gentle and pain-free, with 99% of patients describing their experience as comfortable. Sessions take 30-60 minutes, depending on the treatment area. After treatment, your skin may be slightly red, but that goes away quickly, and you can immediately return to your normal daily activities.
Most patients experience tighter skin right after their procedure, but that’s not due to structural changes. Longer lasting results develop over the next few months as your body gradually restores your skin with new collagen and elastin.
You may need a series of TempSure treatments to maximize collagen rebuilding and to create optimal results. Once you finish your treatment series, you should only need an occasional maintenance session.
