Pellevé Skin Tightening
Restitution process takes place in our bodies to the extent of making us lose elasticity in our skins which leads to visible signs such as fine lines, wrinkles and sagging more prominently on the face and neck. Many people desire to restore the appearance of their skins without the need to undergo a knife’s surgery.

At Winnie King, MD Aesthetics and Wellness in Houston, we offer our team’s advanced treatment to ensure you have smoother, youthful-looking skin.
What Is Pellevé Skin Tightening?
Pellevé uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to non-surgically treat heat deeper tissues of your skin, stimulating the development of collagen. Collagen is very important for the skin to stay firm and elastic but the levels of the same are reduced as one grows older. Pellevé causes the tightening of the skin as well as, cause a better texture and tone by promoting collagen regeneration, which reduces the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
The treatment can successfully treat sagging skin at several places — face, neck, around the eyes, and even at the delicate areas. This treatment provides an attractive alternative to those who want a better look of the skin without going through the trauma that comes with surgical procedures such as facelifts or Botox.

How Pellevé Skin Tightening Works
Pellevé uses controlled radiofrequency energy to heat the dermis, the deep layer of skin, while keeping the surface of the skin cool and protected. The gentle heating causes the collagen fibers to tighten immediately, resulting in a noticeable lift and firming effect. Additionally, the heat stimulates the body’s natural healing process, which leads to the production of new collagen over time. This gradual collagen regeneration leads to longer-lasting improvements in skin texture, elasticity, and firmness.
Unlike other skin-tightening treatments that may cause discomfort or require downtime, Pellevé is designed to be comfortable and convenient for busy individuals. The treatment feels like a warm massage, and most patients experience little to no discomfort during the procedure. Pellevé treatments are quick, with most sessions taking less than an hour to complete, making it easy to fit into your busy schedule.
Can Pellevé Be Combined with Other Treatments?
Yes, Pellevé is often combined with other treatments to enhance its effects. For example, some patients choose to pair Pellevé with microdermabrasion facials or Botox for even more dramatic results. Combining treatments allows for a comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation, addressing multiple concerns at once, such as wrinkles, skin texture, and sagging.
What Are the Benefits of Pellevé Skin Tightening?
The benefits of Pellevé are numerous and long-lasting. Some of the most common advantages of this treatment include:
- Non-invasive: Pellevé provides a non-surgical solution to skin tightening, so you won’t need to worry about cuts, needles, or scarring.
- No downtime: Unlike more invasive procedures, Pellevé requires no downtime. You can immediately resume your daily activities after the treatment.
- Stimulates collagen production: Pellevé works by stimulating the production of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin, which naturally leads to firmer, more youthful-looking skin.
- Visible results: While some patients notice an immediate improvement in their skin’s texture and appearance, the full benefits continue to develop over time as new collagen is produced.
- Safe for all skin types: Pellevé is a versatile treatment that works well for all skin types and tones, making it a great option for a wide range of patients.
What to Expect During and After the Treatment
One of the key benefits of Pellevé is that the treatment is not only effective but also comfortable. During the procedure, a special handheld device will be gently moved across the treatment area. You may feel a warm sensation as the radiofrequency energy is applied, but it is generally painless. Most people describe the experience as feeling like a warm massage on the skin.
After the treatment, you can immediately resume your normal activities. There’s no downtime, and you won’t need to take time off work or avoid social events. However, it is normal for the skin to feel a bit warm or flushed right after the treatment, but this sensation should subside within a few hours.
Results are typically visible within a few days to a few weeks after your treatment, and improvements will continue as collagen production increases. For optimal results, a series of treatments may be recommended, especially for patients with more significant skin laxity.
