Natural rejuvenation starts with an array of advanced technologies to support non-invasive treatment at Pua Manu MedSpa. Systems like TempSure® are an appealing alternative to facelifts, neck lifts, and other surgical procedures. When searching for a way to soften wrinkles and tighten skin near me in Kapolei, Hawaii, TempSure® treatment may be the best option to renew your look without the risk. Our team welcomes the opportunity to walk you through this exciting facial treatment with the following five steps.
Even the gentlest treatments require an initial evaluation. Our skilled providers will examine your skin closely and discuss your concerns and preferences to determine the most effective option for achieving your skin goals. Because TempSure® treatment is non-aggressive, it can be safely and predictably used on all skin types and tones. However, this technology is particularly suited for addressing certain concerns, such as:
Before your first TempSure® appointment (or any treatment at our office), you will receive clear, thorough pre-treatment and after-care instructions tailored to your needs. If you use products that contain retinol, you will be asked to stop taking those in the days leading up to treatment. We can also advise on any products to have on hand to prep the skin and encourage healing afterward. Keep your skin hydrated and hydrate your body by drinking lots of water. On the day of your appointment, do not apply any makeup or skin care at the treatment sites. All metals in the area(s) to be treated should be removed, including any piercings or other jewelry.
TempSure® is tolerated so well by patients that we do not need to administer anesthetic to numb the area beforehand. Most patients describe treatment as a temporary sensation of heat. This heating occurs as we pass a special handpiece over the treatment sites. The handpiece or applicator delivers radiofrequency energy (RF), which is converted into heat. The heat is safely and comfortably transferred deep within the skin to renew the “building blocks” within. As collagen is rebuilt, changes in the tone, texture, smoothness, and overall quality of the skin will be revealed.
The most common side effect is slight redness that goes away quickly. You may also notice mild swelling that goes away within two to 24 hours post-treatment. It’s best to avoid hot water, saunas, and rigorous exercise following treatment. Otherwise, you can apply makeup and resume normal activities. Stick to gentle cleansers and light moisturizers initially. We can provide guidance on when to reintroduce stronger skin care ingredients and formulations into your routine. To make the most out of your results and to keep irritation at bay, apply sunscreen consistently and protect against UV damage.
After several treatments, you can enjoy smoother, tighter, more youthful-looking skin for up to 12 months. Pua Manu MedSpa can advise on and work with you to maintain those results with “touch-up” treatments and guidance on how to delay future effects of the aging process, gravity, and environmental damage.
