Accent Skin Tightening & Facial Contouring
 

• The Accent® is a safe, clinically proven way to tighten your skin. It is fast, safe and effective. The Accent® uses radio-frequency (RF) energy to heat collagen in the lower layers of the skin, tightening your existing collagen and stimulating new collagen growth. It requires no incisions, injections or recovery time and the results can last for years.

• • You will have a consultation with your therapist to discuss treatment. During treatment the area will be cleansed, and a lubricant such as baby oil applied.This will assist the hand piece in its movement. A rubbing technique is then employed using the hand piece, to enable rapid, safe and effective treatment. Typical sensation during the procedure is heat, which will build gradually and comfortably. The number of sessions and treatment times are dependant on the area being treated.

 
 

• • If you take a look at a cross section of human skin, you will notice that it is made up of three distinct layers. A visibile outer layer called the epidermis. A collagen-rich underlayer or Dermis, and an inner fat layer with collagen fibers, called the subcutaneous.

• • When the collagen in these three layers decreases due to the aging process, the skin loses its elasticity and begins to sag and wrinkle. The Accent® heats the skin's under layer and helps renew your bodies' collagen. It improves symptoms through deep dermal heating, increased blood flow and collagen remodeling.

• • Accent® RF treatments can create dramatic change without the need for invasive surgery or even topical anesthetics. Unlike lasers, it works on all skin types. An added benefit is that there is no downtime for the patient so you can quickly resume your normal routine.

• Everyone can benefit, but results may vary and maintaining a healthly lifestyle is recommended. Best results are attained for people with high water content in the fat.

• After the treatment, you will feel the fat reducing and the skin tightening. You may also perceive an increase in blood flow to the treated area. This is normal, and it will subside in 24-48 hours. Results will become more noticeable as treatments increase.
