Frequently asked questions:

What does it treat?

Sylfirm X addresses a wide range of skin concerns, including skin laxity, fine lines, and wrinkles. It is also effective in treating acne scars, hyperpigmentation, melasma, and rosacea. Additionally, Sylfirm X helps improve uneven skin tone and texture, reduces enlarged pores, and diminishes the appearance of stretch marks. By stimulating collagen production, this treatment revitalizes the skin, leading to overall improvements in skin health and appearance.

How does it feel?

During a Sylfirm X treatment, patients typically experience a mild tingling or warm sensation on the skin. Some describe it as a light, gentle prickling feeling as the device works to stimulate the skin. After the treatment, there may be slight redness or sensitivity, similar to a mild sunburn, but this usually subsides within a few hours. Overall, the treatment is well-tolerated, and most patients find it to be a relatively pleasant experience

How long does the treatment last?

Sylfirm X treatments typically take about 60-90 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated and the specific skin concerns being addressed. Most sessions are quick, making it easy to fit into a busy schedule.

How long do the results last?

The results of Sylfirm X treatments can last up to 12 months or longer, depending on individual skin conditions and how well you care for your skin afterward. Many patients notice improvements after just one or two sessions, but results continue to improve over time as collagen production increases. To maintain the best outcomes, occasional maintenance treatments may be recommended.

SkinPen Microneedling

SkinPen microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment designed to rejuvenate your skin by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. It helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and large pores, while improving overall skin texture and tone. This treatment is safe for all skin types and can be used on the face, neck, and other areas of the body to promote a smoother, more youthful complexion.

During the procedure, most patients experience a mild, prickling sensation as the SkinPen creates tiny microchannels in the skin. The treatment is generally well-tolerated, and any discomfort is minimal due to the benefits of topical numbing cream. Afterward, your skin may feel slightly warm and appear red, similar to a mild sunburn, but this subsides within a few hours. The treatment requires little to no downtime, making it easy to fit into your schedule.

These channels allow specifically formulated topicals such as PRP or PRF to be delivered deep into the skin that normally would not occur.  After a series of treatments, the pores appear smaller while fine lines, wrinkles, and texture improve and the skin appears lifted. This procedure can have significant improvement on linear and acne scars after multiple treatments as well.

PRP can also be injected to the scalp and eyebrows to help restore hair loss.

Plasma Pen 

There is such a buzz about this new cosmetic procedure! Available in Europe for years.  It has finally made its way here to the US.  And we are proud to be the first in South Tampa to offer it!

Aging sucks!  Our skin is losing 1% of collagen a year starting in our mid 20s.  Elastin fibers which give our skin elasticity wear out. This results in wrinkles and sagging skin.  Ugh! 

When treating with this device, we target the fibroblasts in the dermal layer of the skin.  When targeted, they begin to stimulate collagen and elastin.  This results in a stronger and more youthful skin ratio. It’s putting back the lost collagen and elastin.  In addition to the deep remodeling that occurs, you immediately see a contraction on the surface skin tissue which is best noted as skin tightening.  

This is considered a soft-surgery that use to require real surgical intervention.  There is not any anesthesia required.  And there is no cutting, sutures, thinning of the skin, and it’s more affordable than surgery.  

How does it work?  It has nothing to do with the plasma in your blood!  

The plasma pen converts electrical energy into electrostatic energy.  When the tip comes at the right distance to the skin, oxygen and nitrogen are mixed and the electrostatic energy produces an arc of plasma (imagine the sci-fi balls of static energy we played with in high school) which discharges onto the skin.  The result is seen on the skin as very fine lines or dots in the treated area.

These dots will be visible on the skin for 5-7 days.  You will not be able to wear makeup or exercise during this period.  If the eye areas is treated, expect swelling.  

The results last around 3 years, but some can be permanent.
