Pellevé is a new type of wrinkle treatment only available through skin care professionals. This non-invasive procedure is often used to tighten sagging skin, a common problem that comes with natural ageing.
Pellevé uses new and advanced radiowave technology to heat the deepest layers of skin without causing any of the skin damage associated with sunburns and skin cancer. There is no anaesthesia needed, because there will be no pain felt during the non invasive procedure.
A special Pellevé hand piece will be used on the wrinkled skin. Every time this Pellevé hand piece is used, a warming sensation will be felt. Once heated, the collagen in the deepest skin layer contracts, forcing new collagen to be formed after the treatment. This newer collagen quickly creates a smoother appearance in the uppermost layer of skin.
Excellent results in the brow area, around the eyes, mid-face, jaw-line and neck
It’s often called the ‘Knifeless Facelift’ because it lifts and firms without the need for a general anaesthetic and a major operation.
Pellevé delivers quick results and is rarely accompanied by side effects or other complications.

Pellevé is a non-invasive skin treatment that visibly tightens and smoothes the face.

Yes, Pellevé was approved by the FDA in 2009. It is approved by the FDA because it is safe to use and brings about effective results with minimal complications. This FDA approval came after the delivery of a clinical study that proved that following a single treatment of Pellevé, a patient’s skin is visibly tightened and appears smoother for a minimum of six months.
A full facial treatment typically takes about 45 minutes to an hour. Because no anaesthesia is used and any swelling is minor, there is no downtime.
What should I experience during the Pelleve procedure?
First, a protective gel is applied to the face. Patients say they feel a deep warming sensation when the doctor touches the area being treated with the Pellevé handpiece. No anaesthetic is used, so you will act as a guide to describe the depth of the sensation as the doctor moves the handpiece across your face.
Mild swelling and redness may occur, but studies have shown that this usually goes away within a few hours to a day.
Many people see the result immediately after just one treatment, compounded with a second treatment 4 weeks later, with lasting improvement for up to six months as the skin produces new collagen. Additional treatments may improve results, so you should consult with your doctor for a recommended number of treatments.
