Get rid of fine lines, wrinkles, and eye bags.
Pelleve® is a non-surgical technique for skin tightening and wrinkle reduction. Pelleve®uses radio frequency to painlessly treat deeper layers of the skin. Unlike other superficial treatments, Pelleve®treatments go about two millimeters into the skin to rejuvenate collagen elastin fibers without damaging the top layer of the skin.
FDA-approved, this radiofrequency (RF) skin tightening treatment is a safe and highly effective way to refresh your appearance without resorting to an invasive procedure. Results are immediate and lasting.

All About Pelleve®
How Is Pelleve® Different?
Unlike other skin tightening systems, there is no need for anaesthesia or skin cooling. Because the skin isn’t numb, patients are able to describe the depth of feeling during their Pelleve® treatment which helps us provide the very best results.
How Soon Will I See Results?
Many patients see a result immediately after just one treatment, but most will need a course of two to three treatments for the very best results. At your initial consultation, we will assess whether Pelleve® is right for you based on your skin type, age and what you hope to accomplish.
Does Pelleve® Hurt?
Many people find Pelleve® to be a very comfortable experience. Mild swelling and redness may occur, because no anaesthetic is used, but this usually goes away within a few hours to a day.
How Pelleve® Tightens Skin
Pelleve® is unique among other non-surgical procedures in that it treats your skin with consistent, smooth radiofrequency energy. Several similar treatments use RF energy, but they don’t deliver a consistent stream of energy into your skin. Pelleve® has been approved by the FDA to treat mild to moderate wrinkles.
New collagen can significantly improve the appearance of your skin. When collagen is new, it’s firmer and tighter than your existing collagen. You can compare collagen to clothes. Over time, it loses its firmness and elasticity. The heat produced by Pelleve® tightens existing collagen fibers and convinces your body to produce new collagen.
Over time, these benefits lead to firmer, smoother skin, and you can completely avoid invasive surgery. Most patients get decent results from a single treatment, but for maximum results, you may want to consider additional treatments. Dr. Kerschner and the staff at Victory Naples can help you learn how many treatments you may need during your first appointment.
What Can Be Treated?
Pelleve® is especially effective against crow’s feet around the eyes, and it can also handle fine to moderate facial wrinkles. Since the treatment uses consistent radiofrequency energy, it can treat issues such as neck laxity, chest wrinkling, facial looseness and jowl sagging.
What to Expect
Before undergoing this procedure, you should know what to expect. One major benefit of choosing Pelleve® is the lack of downtime. In fact, you can go right back to your daily routine as soon as your treatment is finished. This treatment is
