Radio frequency energy uses heat at 40- 42 degrees which stimulates fibroblast action, which then stimulates collagen and elastin production. It’s very important that this therapeutic temperature is achieved. ensure skin tightening is achieved.

Cellulite reduction also uses the same Tempsure technology to melt adipose tissue and stimulate collagen and elastin to remove cellulite. Cellulite occurs as fat starts to permeate through the tissue and there is a breakdown in collagen and elastin. However, by stimulating collagen and elastin the Tempsure treatment can effectively reduce cellulite in any unwanted areas.
