How ReFirme Works
The ReFirme ST procedure combines safe and effective levels of infrared
light and bipolar radiofrequency energies to remodel the dermal layer of the
skin by stimulating new collagen growth. Both laser and radiofrequency have
been used separately for decades in medicine and surgery, but the ST
exclusively combines infrared light and bipolar radio-frequency energy for
ideal treatment outcomes with a very low risk of side effects and virtually no
down-time.
ReFirme is ideal for targeting those telltale signs of aging, including, sagging
under the eyes, saggy brow lines, and nasolabial folds.
