EVOLVE

Introducing the newest technology in our office – body remodeling by Evolve. This hands-free solution tackles various areas on the body, harnessing RF energy to sculpt and renew your skin, leaving you looking and feeling brand new. Applied science has contributed a variety of non-surgical procedures that yield direct, visible results without a lengthy recovery time. These high-tech components are the way going forward and a hallmark in the standard of care when it comes to body sculpting technology.

As a person ages, skin cells can no longer repair themselves or multiply at the same rate they used to, and this degeneration is what causes the appearance of aging skin. You can attribute most aging concerns to your skin cells’ ability to renew – and while some individuals have excellent genetics, most people need a procedural boost. While other treatments focus on one area at a time, Evolve allows patients to work on multiple areas at once.

What is Evolve?

Evolve allows patients to improve several areas at once using numerous smaller machines that can be customized and set for different aesthetic results. Radio-frequency energy, known as RF waves, penetrate the skin to the sub-dermal layer to aid in body sculpting. The waves help improve collagen, smooth out cellulite, and improve signs of wrinkling and sagging skin. Clinical studies have shown that RF treatments like Evolve can help rejuvenate aging skin.

You can treat several areas of the body using Evolve technology. Both men and women begin showing signs of aging after 30, and this non-invasive treatment can help reduce the sight of sagging skin on arms, abdomen, and thighs at the same time.

Trim on Evolve

Evolve technology can help you trim the areas of your body that are stubborn, like your arms,
abdomen, or thighs. Trim uses six hands-free applicators and a vacuum to deliver a thermaleffect that penetrates the deepest layers of subcutaneous fat to provide the best results. Using RF technology to help remove cellulite, pouchyness, or “love handles” around the abdomen is becoming the standard and is quite popular among men and women looking to reach an ideal aesthetic. It is an easy, painless, and effective way to remove excess fat from troublesome areas with no recovery time.

Tite on Evolve

Tighten the skin on any body part, such as your abdomen or arms, using the Evolve Tite system. Applicators are placed on the requested areas by medical professionals, and the settings are customized based on the patient’s needs and desired aesthetics. The applicators deliver volumetric heating uniformly, which heats the subdermal layer of skin, helping to encourage skin cell repair and renewal.

Evolve Tite has direct, measurable results for tighter and younger-looking skin and is a great non-surgical, painless way to tackle areas of concern. This procedure can work for those looking to tighten their skin after weight loss, pregnancy, or general aging.

Evolve Trim utilizes a special vacuum and customized energy pulses to reach adipose tissue and provide real results. Remodel your skin with Evolve Trim.

Tone on Evolve

Using Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) to create involuntary contractions helps tone muscles in various areas to give you a fitter, younger, and brighter appearance. You can use Tone on the abdomen, arms, thighs, or buttocks to help curb the presence of fat, improve muscle tone and strength, and refine the look of these body areas. Four hands-free applicators are placed on the patient, delivering heat and stimulation necessary for the procedure. Progress is monitored by your medical team, ensuring that all applicators are custom set to provide the specific results expected by the patient.

While Evolve is not a fat loss treatment, it is an excellent alternative to surgical procedures that deal with tightening and rejuvenating skin and muscles around various body parts. Tone can help with the stubborn areas that are hard to treat with diet and exercise.

Candidates for Evolve Treatments

Talk to a doctor about what your goals and needs are. Evolve is best for patients looking to tighten and tone several areas of the body. Remodeling the skin and excess fat regions of the body can help encourage you to get in shape or simply help with the most stubborn areas of the body. Your doctor will look at several factors, including age, lifestyle, aesthetic desire, medical needs, and help you decide if the Evolve body remodeling treatment is right for you.

Evolve Treatment FAQ

You can always make an appointment and talk to our doctor about any questions you may have regarding Evolve or any other RF body shaping treatment. We’ll be glad to discuss any reservations you have, talk about effects, recovery procedure, and more. Below we’ve listed the most common questions we get regarding Evolve Tite, Trim, and Tone systems.

Q: How many times will I need to be treated? How many sessions does Evolve take to be effective?

A: Evolve is a multiple-treatment procedure, and you will need six to eight sessions to see results. The good news is that this treatment has no serious side effects or downtime, and only takes an hour, so you can come in anytime for the treatment and get right back to your day afterwards. The results can last for a varying amount of time, depending on your diet and exercise routine and the treatment you use. Whether you’re looking to tighten loose skin, trim some weight, or need to tone up, the results are always effective with Evolve, but how long they last depends on you.

Q: When will I see results?

A: Evolve treatments are extremely effective as RF body remodeling, and it takes anywhere from six to eight weeks to see results.

Q: Can Evolve help tighten skin after pregnancy or weight loss?

A: Evolve is the perfect treatment to help with exactly that. The hands-free applicators are created to treat numerous areas simultaneously, including arms, abs, buttox, and thighs. The technology can be customized and set to achieve your goal look. Evolve can be used to tighten skin, as well as help tone muscles and trim stubborn fat, making it an excellent solution after both pregnancy and weight loss

Q: Is the Evolve treatment painful?

A: No, Evolve is a non-invasive treatment that involves placing special hands-free devices that emit light electrical pulses that help stimulate skin cells and muscles. You may feel a slight sensation, but no pain.

Q: What is the recovery after Evolve?

A: Not at all! Evolve leaves no marks and requires no down time, so this procedure can be done easily on a lunch break from work or any other hour. You can go right back to your usual activities after you’re done.
