Accent Skin Tightening System

Posted on by

Accent is a FDA approved non-invasive treatment for wrinkles and sagging loose skin. It is a controlled heat therapy that utilizes radio frequency to heat your skin’s inner layer. This energy stimulates your cells to produce new collagen. In turn, your skin will appear more youthful and smooth. However, it does not reduce volume. Usually, three to six treatments at two week intervals will be required.
Accent can be used to treat loose, wrinkled skin anywhere on the body – including the face, neck, arms and legs. It is also safe and effective for a postnatal or post-surgical abdomen, buttocks or thighs. The procedure is virtually pain free, and is often described as a warm massage. There is no recovery time.
Dr. Anne Hermann, a holistic internal medicine physician, has been offering the Accent system to her patients for over five years. Dr. Hermann maintains offices in Tampa and Saint Petersburg Beach, Florida. Please contact the office at (813) 902-9559 for more information or to schedule an appointment.

Accent for Stretch Marks in Tampa and St Petersburg

Posted on by

Anne Hermann, M.D.

Accent for stretch marks is a device that uses radio frequency technology that works to actually reshape the surface of the skin and encourage new collagen growth to fill in the vacant areas of the skin caused by the stretch marks.  Stretch marks are created by many conditions – pregnancy, weight gain, and growth spurts  all can contribute to stretch marks. Until recently, there’s been little anyone could do about stretch marks, but with Accent RF treatments, you can see dramatic improvement in as little as six treatments.

What can be expected at an Accent for stretch marks treatment?

The practitioner will be lubricate the skin with a thin layer of oil and a then read the skin surface temperature using a laser guided thermometer (supplied with the Accent ™ system) to assist the practitioner in assessing the heating effect that the RF energy is producing. Regular temperature checks will follow to be sure that the correct degree of heating is being obtained in the treatment area, and also to confirm that a consistent delivery of the RF energy is being maintained.

After treatment, the oil is removed, the skin is dried and you are able to immediately resume your daily activities with no downtime.
