Making great strides to revolutionize the industry of cosmetology and aesthetics in Sri Lanka, the Aesthetic & Cosmetic Centre by Ninewells recently introduced a groundbreaking machine by “Lumenis” for skin tightening, and face and body contouring treatments. Known as NuEra Tight, the machine is a non-invasive radio-frequency (RF) solution proven to improve the appearance of cellulite and skin laxity, with consistent results and minimum or no downtime.
Collagen and elastin are the hallmarks of healthy and youthful looking skin which strengthens it, and keeps it smooth and wrinkle free. These proteins weaken overtime due to age, sun damage, exposure to toxins in the air and, pregnancy and weight loss; resulting in wrinkles, frown lines and sagging skin.
The NuEra Tight machine treats these indications using RF waves that heat the skin’s surface superficially and reach deeper tissue levels. Using the precise frequency and depth of heat, the machine enables the treatment of a variety of conditions on different areas of the body and face. NuEra Tight optimizes treatment efficacy on the abdomen, flanks, buttocks, inner and outer thighs, upper arms, bra and back fat, as well as around the eyes, mouth, cheeks and neck.
“We are proud to be the first facility in Asia, and the first outside of the United States to introduce the NuEra Tight machine by Lumenis to our clients. Lumenis is the globally renowned pioneer in Laser and energy based technology. They are also the leader in the field of minimally-invasive clinical solutions for the Surgical, Ophthalmology and Aesthetic markets,” said Dr. Thiasha Fernando, Director – Ninewells Hospital.
“What makes NuEra Tight stand out is that it uses a technology called Automatic Power and Impedance Control (APIC) to ensure safety and effectiveness. APIC gradually increases the RF power to the target temperature based on impedance detection, and then maintains it for the duration of the treatment. It delivers precise heating to the required depth, with predictable and consistent results. The treatment effective, and both comfortable to give, and pleasant to receive,” she added.
