How Accent RF Can Tighten, Tone, and Rejuvenate Your Face and Body

If loose, sagging skin is getting you down, you may want to consider the far-reaching benefits of Accent RF. This innovative treatment works without needles, scalpels, or injections to tighten and rejuvenate skin on the face or body. 

Read on to learn more about how Accent RF in Tampa can tighten, tone, and rejuvenate your face and body. 

How Does Accent RF Work?

Accent RF delivers radiofrequency (RF) energy to the treatment area through a uniquely-designed handpiece. The radiofrequency energy gently heats the inner layer of the skin, which stimulates the skin’s natural collagen production process. 

Collagen is a protein that gives youthful skin strength and elasticity. But, collagen levels naturally diminish with age, which can contribute to loose, sagging skin. By ramping up collagen production in the treatment area, Accent RF can tighten and firm your skin while diminishing the appearance of dimples and stretch marks.  Continue reading “How Accent RF Can Tighten, Tone, and Rejuvenate Your Face and Body”

Everything You Need To Know About Microneedling

Microneedling is one of today’s most popular cosmetic treatments. Safe, minimally invasive, and effective for many different skin concerns, it can fit seamlessly into your beauty regimen. 

Here’s everything you need to know about microneedling:

It’s Not Painful.

With the word “needle” in its name, it’s no surprise that some people shy away from microneedling. But, your aesthetician will apply a numbing cream to your skin before microneedling to eliminate any discomfort during the procedure.

Additionally, the needles used during microneedling range from 0.5 mm to 2 mm, and they don’t reach the deeper layers of the skin. You may feel slight discomfort as the microneedling pen moves over more sensitive areas of the skin, such as the forehead and jawline.  Continue reading “Everything You Need To Know About Microneedling”

How to Improve Your CoolSculpting Results

CoolSculpting tackles stubborn fat without the need for surgery or injections. It delivers controlled cooling technology that safely destroys unwanted fat cells without affecting the surrounding tissue. 

It takes time to notice results from CoolSculpting, as your body has to process and remove the targeted fat cells. However, there are a handful of ways to naturally improve your CoolSculpting results. These include:

Stay Hydrated

Hydration is crucial before and after the CoolSculpting process. Drinking plenty of water before and after the procedure supports the lymphatic system’s ability to flush out dead fat cells. To further boost your hydration, aim to limit your consumption of caffeinated beverages, which can be dehydrating.  Continue reading “How to Improve Your CoolSculpting Results”
