Sublative™ fractionated bi-polar radio frequency technology places the heat energy effectively into the upper dermis where it can produce a significant increase in both collagen and elastin with minimal epidermal disruption. (Also known as EMatrix) 

Sublative™ is neither laser- nor light-based. Instead, this one-of-a-kind technology uses fractionated bi-polar radio frequency (RF), precisely directed to the skin in the form of a matrix. Similar to “Fraxel”, is uses Radio Frequency (electrical energy) as opposed to a laser. Each pulse delivers the radio frequency energy via a grid of matrix spots, inducing a skin injury which is maximized in these tiny, targeted areas. Fibroblasts activated within the “zones” signal collagen to regenerate and remodel. The surrounding “untreated” tissue then helps support and accelerate the healing process in the skin. Post treatment, new collagen and healthy skin cells are produced, reducing acne scars, mild to moderate wrinkles, large pores and superficial skin discolorations while creating smoother and more elastic skin texture

For best results, expect 4-5 treatments, 8 weeks apart. The total number of sessions depends on your skin’s condition. As the treatment is performed, you will feel a warm, prickly sensation as energy enters their skin. Following treatment, a pink or red flush resembling a minor sunburn is common. Topical anesthetic ointments and cooling gels may be used to reduce discomfort during treatment.

Downtime is approximately 48 hours with mild roughness for 3-5 days
