significant results in skin tightening treatment for their patients. Patients with loose, sagging skin following extreme, rapid weight loss have seen distinctive changes in the mirror, as ReFit treatments tighten and smooth skin. Lives have changed, self-esteem has improved and in general, a happier existence has been achieved for these ReFit patients.

solution — with no anaesthesia or down-time necessary — is an ideal solution for those clients looking for a surgical alternative to addressing sagging skin. What is now becoming even


more interesting is how physicians are recognising the increasing potential of ReFit and its CORE™ (Channeling Optimized RF Energy) technology. Doctors are incorporating the non-invasive skin tightening treatment into their ongoing surgical procedures as a complementary, supporting technique. By realising the extensive benefits of ReFit, physicians are exploring the possibilities for their patients, who are greatly profiting from the experience.

he success of ReFit is undeniable, as doctors around the world are producing exciting and


tightening device, Reaction™, is a unique concept that addresses excessive skin following extreme weight-loss, whether it be via diet, exercise, aesthetic or surgical procedures, or childbirth. Reaction’s CORE™ technology of three different RF frequency modes, as well as a combination of all three modes in a single pulse, allows the control of the depth of RF energy penetration. This enables operators to choose the specific setting for each treatment for each patient’s specific needs and application. As positive RF effects are based on mild heating of the collagen and elastin fibres, CORE™’s delivery of RF energy ensures that the fibroblasts associated with new collagen synthesis are heated, which results in tissue remodelling. This leads to collagen shrinkage and dermal thickening, improving the firmness and elasticity of the skin. In addition to the innovation of CORE™, Reaction™ also incorporates vacuum technology. This vacuum mechanism in Reaction™ ensures an even deeper penetration of the RF energy, thereby enhancing the treatment process. With four vacuum levels offering increased blood-flow and enhancing lymphatic drainage, ReFit treatments with Reaction™

such treatments. As it becomes more common to treat symptoms with more than one solution, physicians routinely include ReFit in their arsenal against loose and sagging skin; before, during and after surgical procedures. Using ReFit before liposuction and similar fat reduction techniques allows easier removal of fat, owing to softening of the tissue, permitting a


more forgiving environment. Dr Daniel Man, a surgeon from Florida, US, is well-known for his continuing desire to explore the potential of the procedures in his practice. Dr Man has been working with ReFit over the past year, in combination with his surgical procedures, to address the resulting sagging skin that has been the by-product of liposuction and laser lipolysis. Seeing the need for a solution to help smooth and firm the skin following these techniques, he has begun using ReFit to tighten and even out textures. Dr Man uses ReFit during the surgical process to more efficiently tighten skin, reduce swelling and promote drainage. 'The CORE™ technology used by
